i completely agree. and there was so much dramatic potential that was really left untapped on the series. other than token nods to "sister" and "who am i now that i'm not the key?" dawn was pretty much stagnant with the character development seasons 6 & 7. what a shame, since michelle tractenburg had such great chemistry with both smg and jm.

glad to see something good is happening with her character in your deft hands!
