Gotta keep in mind it is a blond(e) vampire, so anyone we choose must either already be a vamp or have become one before the story starts. Maybe Nina is a werewolfvampire.
But that's just my point! You she obeys! She obeys you! There's obeying going on right under my nose!

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
I'd watch a Spike movie by Tim. I don't want to sound like a snob (I TOTALLY AM) but if one of the Buffy writers had done it, I don't think I would to be honest.
Tim does pain and suffering like nobody else (hey, a joss quote, I really am a fanboy). Spike needs pain. And suffering. Like nobody else.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Art Crawl!!!
I would watch a Spike movie written by Tim. In fact, I'm looking forward to it -- assuming that it is going forward.

I'd watch a Spike movie by Tim, too. Actually, I'd watch any Spike movie. But I do think Tim would do it right. He'd take us back to the original Spike of season 2 and still have him saving puppies for Christmas.

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who matter don't mind and those who mind don't matter.
I'm in for a Spike movie, as long as there's a decent story attached and no distant glimpses of other characters' hair from afar.

Bwah! Well, I'd see a Tim-helmed Spike movie, or even a Tim-helmed Andrew and Kennedy movie. But I'm not sure respect for talent alone could get me in the theatre to watch characters I loathe without the made-by-a-friend factor, even if such were Jane's or Joss' baby instead.

Campaign to get Tim to kill off Spike begins here. I'll give you $4 and a waffle, Tim. (Although, note, you'd totally get some craxy fan hate mail).

As Buffy said, wouldn't help.
I'm unfortunately convinced that the Woobie that Ate Fandom would resurface despite even Tim's best efforts at fatality.

I'd not be fooling anyone if I didn't say I'd watch anything either by Tim or starring any Buffyverse characters -- curiousity would win above all, if nothing else -- but, to my knowledge, Tim never actually wrote Spike before. So it would be interesting to see a fresh take.
Tim does pain and suffering like nobody else (hey, a joss quote, I really am a fanboy). Spike needs pain. And suffering. Like nobody else.
Actually, Spike works best when he's pretty much running on sarcasm. Too much pain and suffering turns him into Michael Bolton!Spike.
