So what do I think? I think the Slayers turn on themselves. I'm saying War of the Slayer Succession.
You mean there can be only one?
The implication I got from the deleted scene was that he planned on, umm, well, making her feel it, consent be damned.
Really? I didn't get that *at all.* I read it as being just Spike's normal sexual routine; I didn't think he would have used the toys without Buffy's consent.
I fall sort of in the middle on this - I think for Spike, at that time, chains and stun guns fell within reasonable means to get her consent. It's not throwing that issue aside so much as it is coming from it from an entirely different conception.
Ken, I'm with you on the S7 B/S dynamic. I didn't see Buffy really wanting to rekindle their relationship, but even more, I don't think Spike himself would ever have been comfortable with that. He worshipped her for allowing him to still be her back-up and her champion, but going further would have been as hard or harder for him than for Buffy.

Right. I saw them as occasionally ending up in situations that reminded them of the hot, nasty sex they'd had, but I think that induced as much "get away, get away, get away" as it did lust.
I have been watching AI-5 and so far it is decent but yet to wow me. I have only caught the first episode and 3 have aired but I am gonna keep watching it, had no clue Tony Head was in it.
The Big Moment when MI5 got respect was about episode 3.
So, next week it's got ASH AND Hugh Laurie.
I thought that this week's was good -- the one with the hostage situation at the Turkish embassy.
Tuesday nights at 9 (10 Eastern) and Saturday nights at 10 (11 Eastern) on A&E. (It's probably on more often than that -- but those are the times I remember.)

and 2AM ('cause that's when I Tivo it, it conflicts with Queer Eye and Nip/Tuck)
Ahhh, MI-5. There have been only 3 episodes that aired in A&E thus far, and I'm already a total goner for the show. There's action, drama, and such pretty, pretty people. I have a mad crush on Tom Quinn, because he is both ruthless and vulnerable, suffers so beautifully, and wants so much to have an anchor in a world outside the insanities of his job. Which he probably knows is foolish and dangerous and likely would blow up on his face, but he still can't stop himself. I'm betting on either Ellie or Maisie or both getting hurt/killed, but that may be because I'm a blood-thirsty wench.
Plus, Matthew MacFayden? Is dreamy. And has supplanted Alan Rickman as the person I'd most like to have come over to my house and read to me by the firelight. A lovely voice has always been my Achilles heel.
I just wish more people would see it, because I see tons of fanfic potential.

I also enjoy the fact that they seem to be willing to kill the good guys.
