Okay, I've got something to (maybe) get the thread going again:

What's your favorite Angel (the show) moment that *doesn't* involve Angel (the character)? That means, as an example, you can't say Connor's "My father taught me that," moment, because he was talking *to* Angel.

I'ma go to lunch, but I'm hoping for posty goodness when I come back.

Hrm. The Darla and Dru stuff in Reunion- Particularly their scene in the street where Darla wants to know why.

Fred tazering Connor, because she's a little unbalanced like that.

Faith torturing Wesley, which I loved before, but gained whole new depths of appreciation for the scene 'round these parts.

And I know Angel is in the scene, and even has some lines, but he's not the focus of the scene --

Lindsey's folk-rocky performance at Karatas.

Oh, how about the MoG singing "We Are the Champions"?

And from the finale Gunn asking Anne what she would do if it all meant nothing- and she said she would unload the truck. Loved that.

Wesley becoming all general-in-charge in Pylea.

Wesley & Lilah sex scenes.

Wesley's "I'll take away the bucket."

Ummm....I'm seeing some patterns here.

OK, somebody's gotta be the uberromantic sap:

Doyle kisses Cordy.

Fred dies in Wesley's arms.

Gunn stakes his sister.

Wesley shoots his father. Again and again.

And ok, Angel's in this one, but not the focus -- The moment at the end of S3, when the camera focuses on Willow about to tell everyone that Buffy is dead.

Wesley shoots his father. Again and again.

Good one!

Wesley shoots his father. Again and again.

Ooh yeah.

The brilliant choreography of the Fred singing-Lorne reading-Fred spitting up blood.

Also, pretty much any instant where Lorne reads someone to some importance (Wesley's humming before stealing Connor, Holtz's lullaby before blowing up Caritas).

Lindsey's evil hand speech.

And God help me, I kinda like Gunn and Fred's diner breakfasts.

Lindsey's evil hand speech.

Oh. Yeah.
