Awww, but I kinda liked "Bad Eggs" - mostly because everybody else doesn't (oh, and hey, "Beer Bad" is funny too). Perhaps its because I don't think that Bangel was terribly serious at this point that I can deal with the superficiality. Though sometimes I wonder where the Bangels come from - soulmates? All they did was skate and kiss before he went evil. But hey - totally with you on the kissing Spike is much cooler for Buffy to do.

I think a lot of the complaints about both Beer Bad and Bad Eggs is that they felt kinda preachy - which isn't actually the case,if you watch the episodes carefully.
