Could the reason Series Five is less popular than the others be because a lot of the romantic tension between Spike and Linda has dissipated? I remember ages ago looking at the mailing list archives on line and noticing someone comparing Spike and Linda to Moonlighting. I think I read somewhere that after Bruce Willis and Cybill Shepherd's characters became a couple on that show the ratings plummeted because that had been one of the main reasons people watched - to enjoy all the love/hate stuff that was going on. In Series Five (sorry, I think this is going to go on a bit) Spike and Linda seem to have a much more settled relationship than they ever did before and of course they've known each other for a long time now so it's probably not going to be as exciting as it was in the beginning. Feel free to violently disagree with me, Katherine. -- T H E P R E S S G A N G M A I L I N G L I S T By default, pressing 'reply' will send mail back to the list, not to the author of the message you're replying to.
