Hee. I just saw Mr. Trick in Chicago. He's playing Dr. Dillamond in Wicked.
I screamed MR TRIIIIIIICKKK!! when he took his curtain call. Great singing voice.

Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
eh, I hated it when Spike got a soul. I felt like it messed up both his character AND Angel's. And I think they shoulda killed him off, but whatev.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Incidentally, Mr. Trick was killed off because the actor begged out of the role to take another opportunity.
Dammit!

I really got bored with Buffy defending Spike with "he has a soul", which she seemed to forget that Warren had a soul and it didn't stop him from doing bad.
I think that Willow may have made this point at one point. um, you know what I mean.

could have come back in Once More, With Feeling. How funny would it have been for him to show up, do a verse or a song and say "hell no, I'm outta here"

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Hee! There were folks with Wicked playbills on the train home with us last night.
I kinda wanted Buffy to dust Spike one day in a fit of annoyance. They're just hangin' out, he says something lame and she goes, "bam!" right in the heart and maybe doesn't even tell anybody until a few episodes later. I am glad he got to save the world but I think an offhand dusting would have been more representative of the Spike/Buffy relationship.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Bwahahaha! Oh man, that would have been great. Not really in character for Buffy, but I would have laughed for days and days.

I was just typing that very thing, Matt. So many ways to have killed Spike and made the show better, so many writer crushes not letting him go.

I am a Spike fan, and I wanted him redeemed, and I still think the story they told was sort of lame and gave me whiplash. IIn Season Five, it seemed like they were going for "vampire redeemed by unrequited love", which was fine, but then, frankly, he never should have had a real relationship with Buffy. In Season Six, he was the bad boy boyfriend, which was also fine, but didn't seem to go with Season Five, so I kept expecting him to be redeemed instead. Again, that story would have worked, but I didn't even get what they were going for (I am lame) until Season Seven, when there was yet another story of a vampire with a soul, being redeemed, but by that time, I couldn't forget the "bad boy" stuff, even if he did have a soul. Plus, there was already a souled vampire. Plus he said "make me what I was so I can give her what she deserves", and he never was a souled vampire before!

I'm not sure whether he specifically asked for his soul back or whether it was a monkey's paw sort of wish.
