Here is what I find hard to reconcile with the finale. From a story stand point Juliette dying does add an end to the Juleitte story line. Even though I am sure they could have written some other way to end that storyline.

So the Juliette character leaving maybe, but Bitsie leaving makes even less sense. Of all the characters Bitsie twitter and facbook fans far out weights anyother character. Only David even come close. David may have more followers 111k to Bitsie 69k, But Bitsie likes total 7886 to david 621. These two far outway any other characters on the show. Does Bitsie's involvement in social media account for the high like count? more then likely. People respond to those that recognize them. But how does a show elimanate that much of it's fan base and not expect reprocussions. Even Bitsie is keeping her involment with the show alive on social media. If Bitsie was really leaving why would she not say bye to her fans and invite them to follow her to her next project. Speaking of, who leaves a show without someting else lined up.

The grimmwriters do a tribute to Kelly leaving but mention Juliette as an after thought. On their list of good and evil Juliette is still shown. Maybe they are trying to keep interest so Juliette fans do not bail before season 5.

It has been a while but did some digging

TVGO: First off, is Buffyreallydead? Whedon: Yes. She's rotting in her grave even as we speak.

TVGO: But Sarah's coming back? Whedon: Yes.

TVGO: You can understand how some people might be confused... Whedon: Yes.

TVGO: Are you worried about alienating viewers by bringing her back from the dead? I mean, we saw the tombstone. Whedon:Yes, I'm always worried about that. The point is, you have to take it seriously and pay it homage and make it as hard and strange for the people in the show as it is for the audience to accept. Then you earn it.

So because the writers say you are dead and buried???? wait and see.
