As TV Tropes says, poor Spike suffered from Badass Decay. My favorite moment from the series may be his fight with the Slayer on the New York Subway.

I have to agree–Angelus was one of the most searingly evil villains I’ve ever seen on film. He was ruthlessly predatory, creatively cruel, intelligent and articulate, and he enjoyed causing pain. I thoroughly hated him! “Good” Angel, on the other hand, bored me to tears.

I thought The Master just never had a chance to do much, though–in the “alternate reality” episode, “Doppelgangland” (one of the most brilliant episodes BtVS did), we got a better idea of what he might have been capable of. JMHO–and not at all biased by the fact that a very dear friend gave me a Master action figure that’s sitting on my bookshelves.

I enjoyed the Buffy series when I was recovering from an illness & spending a lot of time in hospital as well…it offered a great escape from the pain & bother of being “not well”…

I loved this! I have to agree that I definitely enjoy the snarky, sneaky, funny, sexy, and a bit vulnerable vampire! I really loved Buffy and my son has recently begun watching my collection of Buffy DVDs and it is definitely fun to revisit.

LOL, I was thinking to myself, where’s Spike? But, you’re right, he’s not really scary, is he? Just adorable!
The world of vampires has been forever changed because of Buffy. *sigh* I miss it.

That was really thought provoking. I agree; the vampires who merely hurt you are nowhere near as interesting as those who defy expectations and mess with your brain.
