I generally don't like ranting about things I dislike (because ranting about things I like is just so much more fun). But. Unconditional Supernatural love just sets me off.
This site is wondering if Supernatural is as good as Buffy. And, um, no? A world of no, even. How can anyone even compare something as misogynistic and sexist as Supernatural

Anyone who says this? Their opinion on ANYTHING is immediately discounted, forever and ever. Because Spike was so fucking milked on that show that I was enraged by how he took over Buffy for the last few years. It became Buffy and Spike and sometimes their sidekicks. And even after he tried to rape her, we were supposed to still care about him and like him and want them to be together? FUCK to the THAT.
And if this person is telling me that SPIKE FANS weren't even pleased? Then guess what: Nobody was happy with that fucking show by the end.

I guess one of the things that bugs me about later Spike is that there was actually a lot of interesting things that *could* have been done with the character but weren't. Instead we got "Spike the eternal embodiment of cool".

I totally refused to watch the last season of "Angel" once they added Spike to the cast. I had barely been able to stand him on Buffy, and his addition to "Angel" made me bitter beyond words.

And, you know, I'm no great fan of Willow or Xander, but even I agree that they got the totally non-existent end of the stick in the last season, especially. In season seven, it was so bad that Buffy was pretty much questioning the loyalties of everyone who dared to even glare at Spike, and really, it sort of made me dislike her as much as it made me hate Spike.
The writers totally bent over backwards to please the freaking Spike fans (and alienated almost everyone else for that), and the Spike fans still have the nerve to bitch about his treatment.
