Spike's eagerness should not have made him do terribly in the jobs he knew how to do. His eagerness to help Rarity (Party of One, Green Isn't Your Color, A Dog and Pony Show) and never screwed up (though you could argue that they are on different planes since he's trying to impress her). It might have been more tolorable if it was more consistant, but how can he not mop or bake (again something he knows how to do) but can build a rock tower and clean off a pig with no problem.

It was played out for laughs and thats, thats no good. I analyze how the character acts throughout the series and determine if it works well in the situation given. Fluts and Twi rarely go OOC except for the rare occasions (and I critique that too). Spike was played out for laughs. He deserves better. He deserves another episode like Secret of My Excess and Crystal Empire, you know, something that develops him as a character instead of using him as a comic relief.

You don't have to agree and I respect your opinions, but this is how I see it.
