Dawn ,'Sleeper'
[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.
In with everybody else on the WB hate. I watched that montage and thought "If you were the crew's friends, you wouldn't have cancelled the damn show." Argh. Asshats.
Though at least they didn't drown out the Grr...Argh this time. I think there'd be mob with torches and pitchforks storming their gates right now if they had.
emphasis with him wasn't the reward
Yup. We saw that when he gave up the Gem of Amara and when he asked to be turned back into a vampire after his brief stint at humanity in IWRY. So, losing the Shanshu wasn't a deal to him. Spike even tweaked him without knowing he'd given it up and Angel said nothing to him. In the long run, Angel fights because it's what he does.
I'm...
People have summed up my words well enough.
Including these:
FUCK YOU WB
I had the impression that Lorne had heard Lindsey sing, in fact he'd been hearing Lindsey sing for years at Caritas, and he told Angel what he was going to do - I think he might have held off until he found out that Angel was considering to let him live. And I also do think that Angel having Lorne kill Lindsey was his last spit at W&H - he refused to play their game by trying to kill the guy himself, he just had an employee do it.
I'm really really sad that Angel is gone. I watched the first episode of Buffy and the first episode of Angel but with both of them I missed seasons because my life got in the way.
And then I found Table Talk and the Buffistas. I don't remember exactly when I started posting on Table Talk (Although I think at one point DX looked it up for me), but you guys have been incredible and I'm so so happy that I'll get to meet more of you in DC.
OK tried typing this once before but computer ate it. Needed wine anyway.
I believe Lorne was acting on Angel's orders- he used the same phrase with Angel- "I'll do this one last thing for you" and Lindsey "One last thing". Or something like that.
I think Lorne was acting on his own when he killed Lindsey. I think Angel was serious about turning W&H over to Lindsey if he died in the battle, in line with the whole "devil you know" conversation.
I really think Lorne was acting on his own. And I think *that's* why he said he wouldn't be coming back, don't try to find him.
Then again, I think it was left deliberately vague as to whether Angel told Lorne to kill Lindsey or Lorne acted on his own.
Which is why I love this show. Which is now over.
God, that sucks.
he refused to play their game by trying to kill the guy himself, he just had an employee do it.
Heh. I had to laugh when Lindsey said that Lorne couldn't kill him, only Angel could. That had to be a nod to the ficcers.
The Angel Finale will be rerun next Tuesday at 8/7 central.
