I would say that in retrospect the biggest problem with S6 for me, 
besides its basic awfulness, was that since everything eventually led 
back to Capeside and the D-J-P triangle, spending a lot of energy on 
relation****ps and storylines that had no chance of surviving until the 
end made it all seem like so much time filler.  The core characters 
became so uninvolved with each other and yet everything ultimately had 
to lead back to a point that had nothing to do with what happened for 
most of the season.  (I have to admit, I don't have great recall of S6 
because I disliked it so much my interest took a vacation.)  In 
comparison, S5 did a much better job of keeping some small part of that 
Capeside feeling going even with the change of venue.
