Spike never knowing when he’s not wanted or when to stop talking really kept the group together in S5. Imagine if he wasn’t there Angel would’ve been all alone in his office, Senior Partners probably would’ve won.
It really is amazing how they shot this episode around Alexis Denisof’s face being paralyzed. Him being in shadow or having a blank face really works for the episode. It’s a good example of the writing, directing, set/lighting, and the actor working as one.
Yeah I agree, he brought a lot of much needed comic relief and characterwork to the season for sure. Also what do you mean paralyzed? Was Denisof in some accident or something in real life?...
