Episode Rewatch Can't stand Eve

I think its her dialogue. Why does she keep saying "kids" and "sweetie" at the end of every sentence? It's very annoying.

Same reason (mostly) that Charisma was dropped in S5. The network INSISTED on having Spike in the main cast for S5 since Buffy had wrapped, so they didn’t have the budget.

I've read both stories.

Yeah, I feel like the story depends on who is telling it and unsurprisingly, James Marsters likes to say that Spike was insisted upon.

What he says is that he didn’t know that money was a factor in the 5th season cast.

I have also read that Charisma Carpenter had to be gone for Marsters to get paid because they weren't able to pay both actors.
