Enjoying Evil
"If you can get a character that is evil -- beyond the bounds of politeness and social constraint -- and he also has delight in himself doing that, you really have something. You have a character that the audience really enjoys stepping behind, for 15 minutes, to see what it would be like."
-- James Marsters, talking about playing the charismatic vampire "Spike" on the Buffy the Vampire Slayer TV series.
