It's like, I watch FFL--great episode--go online and it all about how we're supposed to sympathize with the guy who just spent the last hour gloating over killing two young women and Buffy's the huge bitch for the beneath me line. Um, no.
RIGHT? I mean, WTF? (I feel the same way about Crush actually - I was creeped out by the torture porn imagery, but that last image is of Spike utterly perplexed that she's shut the door in his face and the feeling I get is again, we're supposed to feel for him, not her.) That may not even been what the writers even intended but that's what came across to me, at least visually. JM is almost too damn good an actor.
