I'll be surprised if anyone votes Riley! Spike is my second fave character after Buffy herself of course

Spike is and always has been my all-time favourite character. Right after him comes Angel... but only when he's evil-styles.

I don't like Buffy, actually- she's too whiny. And Riley is probably right at the bottom of my list of favourite characters, right next to Tara. Oh, and the annointed one. Glad Spike offed him. Did you know that in New Zealand, on network television, they cut the bit where Spike kills the annointed one? He throws him into the cage, we see him pulling the chain... and then it cut to the smoking bars. It wasn't until it came out on Sky that I found out how the annointed one actually died. "Bloody 'ell!"

Do you think that Joss got rid of Riley because he was so unpopular and started the Buffy-Spike bit cos everyone liked him? Betcha Riley doesn't get one vote - haha!

We've only just seen the ep where Riley left in NZ. But yeah, Riley probably got the boot because he's so unpopular.

Marty's Mine · 11th October 2001, 04:34 PM

Im not sure about every 1 else, but the thing that annoyed me most about Riley was the fact that he was sooooo damn tall!! If you remember in "Hush"[I/] @ the end when Riley was sitting on 1 bed and Bufy was on the other, did you notice how tall he really is!! y did they put such a tall lanky sod with a small woman!!??
Maybe its just me!! or maybei []REALLY dont like him!!!

[Spike's Mine: ...the thing that annoyed me most about Riley was the fact that he was sooooo damn tall!!]

It may be that Sarah is a little short, after all, she's only 5' 3" and Marc "Riley" Blucas is tall at 6' 2". The difference is bound to be striking no matter how many camera tricks they use.

I can't help but notice lately that Sarah and Michelle "Dawn" Trachtenberg are almost the same height (actually Michelle is 5'4"). Since Michelle is sixteen years old (TODAY IS HER BIRTHDAY!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICHELLE!), it may not be long before she is the big sister. That will be strange.

Riley is the World's BIGGEST Lug according 2

www.bbc.co.uk/Buffy/

On the season 4 episode guide there is a little grey box in the left corner of each review listing all of the dumb things that Riley has said or done in that particular ep. U don't realize the extent of Riley's dumbness until u read this!

Spike is the cutest guy in the world..... ever! (I have a shrine 2 James Wesley Marsters in my locker - well, not far off!)

Marty's Mine · 16th October 2001, 09:35 AM

:rolly2: LOL :rolly2:

i neva realised how much of a dunce riley really iz!!

:rolly2: LOL :rolly2:

Roach · 17th October 2001, 04:44 AM

Sorry, Mark Spud. But forums are about voicing your opinions...:rolly2:

The thing I hated about Riley was that he was so... boring. I mean he did nothing. There was no character depth. He was there essentially for the other characters to react to him. His role was similar to the role of Pipers old boyfriend on Charmed; y'know, the guy with the butt-chin. He wasn't there to be a new character; he was there to be Piper's boyfriend.
