I had exactly the same experience, btw ... feeling that I was poodling around in a fog until halfway through second year (Uni is only 3 years here), not really understanding what the lecturers wanted or what I was supposed to be getting out of the experience, or how to go about pulling it all together in a meaningful way.
I'm on the same page as shipperx ... Spike is ours now. ME has dropped the ball, but then ME didn't have a firm grasp on the ball - or was grasping the wrong ball altogether - right from the beginning, so I was never all that invested in their point of view. I watch the show in the same spirit that I read fic ... 'oh, cool!' interspersed with a lot of 'meh' and 'hell no!' reactions.
Your Highlander comments are intriguing. I know nothing about Highlander, but you're tempting me to take a look at it. I'll see how much cash I have left after the WriterCon auction.
