I guess I now see the point in burying Barnabas. It mystified me before. It's still a crazy decision. She did what Joshua did, chickening out on staking Barnabas, because it's too upfront and personal, and instead condemning him to yet another eternal internment, in the ground this time. I've never seen any reason not to think that Barnabas becomes as conscious as ever when he revives at night, and he'll wake up underground every night for centuries, now. But as far as Julia's concerned, out of sight, out of mind. She and Willie talk about him as if he's gone, but he's not.
And what do they say to people?
My only notes on this one say this is Julia's craziest idea ever, and "Julia and Willie really love that old a-hole don't they?" Barnabas was always one of my TV heroes, but I'm becoming very disillusioned about him now.
