I read what you said further upthread about being squicked by TBQ's Angel/Wesley, and wondered why that didn't really occur to me. I realised it's because I just cannot conceive of Wesley acting in that fashion and simply dismissed it as Not Wesley.
Her Spike however, because he's like a sort of Spike for Dummies version of the real Spike (by which I mean there were recognisable aspects of Spike in there, if filtered through a stuck in season 2 perception of him) disturbed me more.
However, I begin to wonder if that's the Spike we're going to end up with in AtS this season. Must be a reason why all the people who hated Trying to Change Spike (including the original Ducks) are so pleasd with what they've seen so far.
