KV is just another children's show. Think of it as my own private sorrow; you only know about it if some idiot gave your kids the videotape.
I like "muppers" better than "muppets".
My food is problematic.

What is even happening?
Um, I can't even pretend I can make this in any way connected to the thread title.
Ummm. We're supporting you, so that you know you aren't as clumsy as you might feel, when it comes to pop culture?

I fixed the typo and then re-fixed it, just so your post won't look crazy. But my first tv love will always be the Muppets.
[Edit: thanks, Cindy! Your support is working already, declaring it being a help in and of itself.]

I actually thought he was fighting for redeption alot more on Angel, actually understood what it meant on Angel. On Buffy it was still all for the girl. On Angel it was for the good of humanity.
Personally, I thought he was fighting to show up Angel in a fit of "Anything you can do, I can do better!" pique until Fred became a casualty. Though perhaps it was being tortured by Dana that finally knocked some sympathy for victims into his head, and it just took a few episodes to percolate.

being tortured by Dana
What, she tied him to a chair and sang show tunes? (Actually, she has a nice voice.)

Even the most stable brain operates just a millimeter from madness.
Though perhaps it was being tortured by Dana that finally knocked some sympathy for victims into his head, and it just took a few episodes to percolate.That's where my vote lands. The end of Damage is one of my favourite Spike-moments, and I say that as one of those people that thinks he's overused and don't really like him very much anymore even though he once were cool. I also feel that his soul might have had effect on him and his choices before, but it's here it really start to matter, it's here his journey to humanity begins.
I actually look forward to the Spike-movie, but that has more to do with being starved for buffyversestuff and for the love of Tim than the character. Hopefully there will be Illyria too. Spike leading Illyra, they learning lots of thingies from each other, plus good amounts of pain and death. I could enjoy that.
Damage is by the way pretty far up the top on my list of best Angel-episodes. I mean, it's got Andrew, a crazy vampire slayer and a bonesaw, which might not be quite as cool as a melon baller but still effective. How can there not be love?!

That "Drusilla sired me but you made me a monster!" moment was the sort of thing I'd hoped for in the way of Spike/Angel interaction, as opposed to the infantile "Am not!" "Are too!" arguments that made up 90% of their dialogue together in Season 5.

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who matter don't mind and those who mind don't matter.
A good sturdy bone saw should always proceed the balling of the melon.
I have to agree with Fredrik. Honestly, I can't see Illyria leading anything at this point in her development. She's still pretty much a hatchling that is only beginning to understand how things work.

Did anyone ever figure out why a psychiatric institution *just happened* to have a bone saw laying (lying? I can never keep laying/lying straight) around in the hallway? Did they perform impromptu surgeries in the patient rooms? Was it to handle those pesky hangnails?
