"No character's journey from the dark to the light has been more poignant or frustrating than that of Spike, the vampire in love with Buffy; he went out and regained his soul, but at a hefty price. As Spike, the ferociously versatile James Marsters emerged as the show's undisputed romantic hero and leading man. And if there's any justice, he'll earn Buffy's first acting Emmy nomination for his efforts."

-- Joyce Millman, Dec. 2002, Boston Phoenix newspaper

Redemption News

James Marsters was a guest on "The Late Late Show with Craig Kilborn" 21 January. During the interview, there was this exchange: 

CK: Are you good or bad? I can never figure out?

JM: Uh, reformed. Seeking forgiveness. Actually, whining a lot right now. Yeah. They're spending a lot of time making Spike feel really bad for killing all those people so they can then redeem him.
