But why does Spike coming in to Season 8 equate to "happy couples"? That's the last thing I'd expect and I'm hoping that he does appear.
I think I subconsciously wrote about happy resolution because the only other possible scenario is Faith/Robin Wood resolution: a short notification about the end of the relationship, "good-bye, Buffy" - "so long, Spike". And I don't want to think about it. I'd be happy to be wrong, but I think that Joss won't use Spike or Angel unless the s8 circulation drops so drastically the whole project will be in danger of cancellation. But I don't think it will happen. Season 8 started at 100-plus thousand copies, dropped down to 74 thousand copies by #19 and my estimation is that it will end with about 50 thousand. Enough to keep it going, no need for Spike the Rating Raiser. (cynical? moi?) :)))
