I guess ... it's not just that ME has dropped the ball on Spike's story. They did that all through season six yet I still loved the character. Problem is the writers--plus the actor--have turned Spike into a shallow parody of himself this year. I have difficulty imagining him doing anything beyond getting drunk, playing video games, and fighting. I said this to shipperx, too -- Spike just doesn't interest me anymore.
Oh, you should so check out Highlander! The season four DVDs just came out; you could get those (if you get them through Best Buy you get extra footage). Methos is so wonderful--a true grey character, like I wish they had done with Spike.
