No character is irredeemable, especially on this show. Clearly. Any decent writer can take any character and redeem them, even more than once. Whedon did it with both Spike and Angel many times...and did it well. Just because they want to try to force some sort of redemption onto Bellamy and declare him redeemed doesn't mean the viewers will ever see him as redeemed. As I said back when Watch the Thrones first aired, I don't care if they turn him into Mother Theresa; it will never make up for him willingly murdering 300 people, including the wounded. The actions he took make his his character irredeemable except through death or as a complete villain.

Spike and Angel are very different characters than Bellamy and with the way Bellamy's fall was "written," it's already been made clear there is no decent writing happening here.
