Buffy and Angel 1: BUFFYNANGLE4EVA!!!!!1!

Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Oh my god, never have two people had so little sexual chemistry and so much comedic compatibility as Angel and Cordelia. I AM SO HAPPY SHE IS ON THIS SHOW.

Well at least that's one thing he and I had the same reaction to. The Cordelia who said "'cause of how the only guy that ever liked her turned into a vicious killer and had to be put down like a dog?" in Buffy's hearing made the perfect comedic foil for Angel's manpain.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

deep-seated phobia of not being able to speak.

This is entirely possible, given the amount of talking he does.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

He's up to Wild at Heart.

I kind of want to believe that it was an elaborate joke and that he’ll just show up in the next episode and say, “Okay, I worked it all out!”

Well, not the next episode.

Cue evil laughter

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Hee!

Me: Trivia: Tim Minear never worked on Buffy. Despite the number of times articles have credited him as having worked on Buffy, he never worked on Buffy. His work on Angel, however, is awesome.

cait0716: What? I never realized that he didn't work on Buffy. I guess it's just because he was so involved in Firefly that I assumed he had. I mean, the who Mutant Enemy team seems to stretch so far back.

Then again, if he'd worked on Buffy, it probably would have been canceled in the second season. Dude is cursed.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Yep, just like Angel got cancelled in the second season. Just like that.

It got canceled in its fifth season! It was a delayed release. Tim was still honing his powers.

Five seasons is a perfectly decent run. I will not bitch about that.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Would you say "Guise will be Guise" (Wes pretends to be Angel) the episode where Wes transformed from someone with a badass side that showed sometime to a full flown fulltime baddass?

I always liked the episode with the silly fight arena, where Wes pulled a gun on the gangsters.
