Bascially he said they wanted Spike on the show for his appeal, but haven't worked out exactly how he'll get there...Said they haven't ruled out the Shansu (sp?) Prophecy, but that they don't know if they'll use that.It's been said that in some ways, high level D&D's allowance of raise dead and ressurection make death a bit redundant. I think the Buffyverse has already passed that point, so does it really matter anymore?Spike's moment is a character defining moment in that he didn't know he'd be back. (If indeed he is, nothing is ever for certain.) Though, to be fair, I don't know that he had a choice in staying or in using the power of the amulet.There's also always the chance of time travel or something, flashbacks as well.Perhaps Past Spike will arrive here, so he won't have any feelings for Buffy at all, or.. something, I dunno. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />In the same interview, Whedon says he wanted to kill a character, so he chose Anya because Caulfield said she had no interest in playing the character again. Seems a bit of a cop out myself, but oh well.Slayer's probably never survive long because they're silly enough to hunt vamp's at night. If they'd just follow them back to where they came from and whack them during the day, they'd probably last longer. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Lastly, the finale defiently could have done with being 2 hours and not feeling as rushed, but then as I mentioned, the season was so slow during it's "arc" stories that they had plenty of time to expound on the plot elements. If they had gone into the Urgrosh a bit through research, and not brought in the temple from nowhere or the old lady who watches the watchers but never saw Caleb...Ah well.</blockquote>
