Ok well I'd like to disagree. My feeling is that the problem with
series five is that Spike and Lynda are tryign to have the same
relationship they had before, it hasn't changed and you feel after
Day Dreams it should have. (Sorry I think I say this every time)
Perhaps if the relationship had become more stable it would have been
interesting but Lynda is still dumping Spike on the slightest
suspicion of him looking at another girl. I would have liked to have
seen them living together or somthing like that, completly changing
the dynamics of the relationship.
