Angel has the evolution of Bad Ass Wesley. All other arguments are invalid.
Lorne: You know what they say about people who need people. Connor: They're the luckiest people in the world. Lorne: You been sneaking peeks at my Streisand collection again, Kiddo? Connor: Just kinda popped out.

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 actually preferred the Angel - Cordelia - Doyle dynamic to what came later, even if some of the individual episodes weren't that great. And "Rm w/a Vu" is still my Platonic Ideal Angel episode.

Wes asking help from the Burger Loa is pretty much my fave. Forever and ever.

Prim and proper Wes shooting the bad guy in that underground fighting episode makes me happy. But "I'll take away your bucket" has its charm. As does "It's not always walks in the rain" or whatever that line was.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
"It's not always about holding hands" is how I remember it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The first season of Angel, I often clicked away in the middle -- I forget what else was on, but yeah. And then I drifted away at the end. I have never seen the puppet episode! I should (re)watch.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
So, I watched season 5 in its entirety and jeezy pete, The Body is one of the most agonizing but best hour of television. It is so gut wrenching but SO PERFECT. I am in awe of everyone involved in that episode.
Watching the Gift was heartbreaking, to see Buffy with that look of contentment and determination and relief while running off the platform.
Then Bargaining (and the rest of the start of season 6) was heartbreaking too. Poor Buffy. Poor Dawn. Poor Giles.
I remember laughing at Buffy's line, "Full! Copper! Repipe!" at the end of Flooded the first time I saw it, but it made me so sad to see tonight.

Got back on the Season 6 train (it's hard to marathon that season, so depressing.) I listen to the Once More With Feeling soundtrack every once in a while, but forgot how awesome the episode it around the songs. The visual aspect of the musical numbers is so amazing to watch.
