It might be, I'm not sure

Anyway, I could see Spike watching it. There's a plucky blonde in the show

I'm sure he would watch it. Probably would love Rose and The Doctor. Hate Martha.

I found this and thought it was really interesting.
Quote:
With no soul, Spike's only way to better behavior ...is for him to emulate what he sees. Often, he mirrors whatever he sees from the SG. Notice Dawn. She treats him with respect, and he returns the favor. Willow apologizes for Tara, and Spike softens. Buffy has started talking to him like a person, and he does the same. With Giles and Xander, who still treat him guardedly (with good reason), he is more sarcastic

I did notice that and I agree with that. And Spike also became darker in season six when Buffy became darker. With no conscience, it is up to human behavior for him to mimic and the scoobies weren't always the best role models.

Very true. I really like that that said and I agree with it. He does as he sees. And if you treat him like crap well he's going to do the same. I mean isn't that the golden rule anyway? Do unto others as you would have them do unto you?

I wonder if Tara and Willow and Dawn hadn't of acted so warm around him if he would have been less inclined to love Buffy.

Probably not. But he would be more insecure as to how to show it, I guess.

I love that quote. I think it fits perfectly.

True, I guess he wouldn't show it as often because he doesn't see it directed towards him.

Spike always felt insecure about affection directed towards him. Makes me wonder about his history Is it really so hard to believe that someone loves him?

Well considering he only really had his mom and then once she was turned she treated him horribly and then Cecily treated him like dirt and I think he always knew Dru was also Angelus' so yes I think it is hard for him to believe. I think Dawn was the first person to show him that kind of innocent affection.

It's okay. I think he knows that he was loved by Buffy and Dawn and even to a certain extent the other Scoobies.
