Why Ianto's death was ultimately pointless and stupid in an article here comparing his death to that of Tara on Buffy. The writer says everything that I felt was wrong way better than I could ever hope to.
I stopped watching Buffy after season 5. Buffy was just way too annoying for me to deal with anymore, so I didn't really get to know Tara that well. The important part though is how the characters were dealt with. Annoying as she may have been, she got a proper send-off and her death actually had a point. Whereas Ianto's did not.
