* BittersweetEnding: Fi's character arc, which functionally ends with the Season 3 premiere "Lightning Rod": [[spoiler: She stops trying to contact her father's spirit and goes off to live a more normal life with her relatives. But her ring's inscription transfers to Annie, implying that she is inheriting her mantle. And while she never found out how he died or what the evil spirits wanted with him, Fi at least had a chance to say goodbye to her father and achieve some closure in the previous episode, "Twin".]]

* DarkerAndEdgier: Season 2. While it was still pretty dark compared to other Disney Channel shows, Season 1's episodes mostly had either NoAntagonist or a well-intentioned AntiVillain, and the stakes were relatively low. After the introduction of Bricriu in the Season 1 finale, Season 2 features much darker stories, including the ongoing MythArc about the Phillips family coping with Rick's loss as well as the evil spirits chasing after his soul. Of particular note are episodes like "Fall," a look at a traumatic event from Ned's past with very little ComicRelief, and "Strange Geometry," which sports some of the series' creepiest visuals and an emotional conflict between Molly and Fi. Even the occasional BreatherEpisode in this season usually has something disturbing in it. Completely reversed with Season 3, though.
