This is where we talk about Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No spoilers though?if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it. This thread is NO LONGER NAFDA. Please don't discuss current Angel events here.
The melodramatic schmoop served an important purpose (and I liked it--even the Christmas snow of Amends, yo!). It served to show (Angel, and the fans, if not Buffy) that their relationship, given their feels and desire for each other, was untenable, as long as Angel's soul hung in the ballast, and that to save himself, her life, and their love, he had to leave town.
I do not support any tinkering with season 3 (which I may like better than Sacred Season the Second).
Step off, Frank.
Step off, Frank.
Geez, Louise Cindy - just idle speculation. I think the major schmoop eps (Amends, Enemies, The Prom) covered the angst quotient more than enough. Even ME realized how absurd it was getting (The Zeppo). More than enough room for a little expansion on a good storyline.
Signed,
Always thought THE WISH felt a little rushed.
P.S. Season 3 is my favorite season as well (and I give 4 the nod ever so slightly over 2 because it has WAY better stand-alones).

Oh man, seriously. S4 has killer stand-alones. But yes, S3 is teh awesome. I don't think there's a single episode I don't like. I even like "Dead Man's Party" for the zombies. Okay, "Beauty and the Beasts" is a teensy bit on the low side. But on the average, it's a high-quality season, ep for ep.

Yeah, but there are a few eps, "Choices" comes to mind, that weren't compelling in and of themselves, and just about everything worthwhile therein could have been farmed out to other episodes to replace extraneous schmoop. I'm not terribly fond of "Gingerbread", either, a few jokes aside. And, as you mentioned, "Beauty and the Beasts" - the Angel stuff and the Oz stuff are good, but the main point of the episode is WAY too on the nose.
the second claim in this story has to be bullshit, right? Given that their source is a paper given away on the tube:
(Frank, you know I was just kidding around, right?)

I figured as much, but I understand the sentiment. Season 3 is kinda sacred.

Okay, now I have to join in on the Frank stepping off! You liked 4 over 2?!?!?! PUT DOWN THE CRACK PIPE. Intervention time people!!!
okay, still kidding around, but I really think that 2 is much better than 4, standalone issue aside
3, 2, 4, 6, 5, 1, 7
THANK you, Cindy! Hmph!
