Angel #3.2: That Vision Thing

Sunday, August 9th, 2009

As I said, it looked like there were a few storylines starting up in the first episode of season 3. This continued one of them–Cordelia’s visions. Her visions started to physically manifest in her, like if she a demon with claws, she would have deep claw scratches. Turns out though the physical [...]

Angel #3.1: Heartthrob

Saturday, August 8th, 2009

The first episode of season 3 had a lot to do. Angel found out Buffy was dead at the end of season 2, so they had to have him come to terms with it. So the last 3 months, he was off somewhere greiving, and when he comes back Cordelia annoyingly keeps telling [...]

Angel #2.22: There’s No Place Like Plrtz Glrb

Thursday, July 23rd, 2009

The heroes save everyone, and make it back to LA! They bring back Fred, who I suddenly found very cool and intriguing. I’m curious how she’ll handle coming back to Earth and reacclimating and if she has old family and stuff. Somehow I doubt that angle will be a focus of anything [...]

Angel #2.20: Over The Rainbow

Thursday, July 23rd, 2009

So Cordelia got sucked into Pylea, some other dimension, which also happens to be where Lorne the Karoake Demon came from (and he hates it there). Angel is all determined to save Cordelia so they all find their way into Pylea to save her. On Pylea, which oddly looks like an old wild [...]

Angel #2.19: Belonging

Monday, July 20th, 2009

I guess it’s so–after all the hints at how disconnected Cordelia feels, this episode really built on that. First she got a big commercial acting gig, but it goes badly with a lecherous director and she feels bad. Then she has a vision about a girl and a portal going to another world. [...]

Angel #2.18: Dead End

Monday, July 20th, 2009

I cannot figure out what I think of Lindsay. Sometimes I think he’s remarkably uninteresting, especially for a Buffyverse character (i.e., like Riley). But other times I think he was a pretty good foil for Angel. This episode was the latter. But it ended with Lindsay quitting Wolfram & Hart in [...]

Angel #2.17: Disharmony

Monday, July 20th, 2009

As soon as I saw the title of this one I knew… Harmony was coming back. My friend had told me she returns to the show, but I wasn’t expecting that for awhile. Turns out it appears for now at least it was just a one-time return. Harmony’s return was used to [...]

Angel #2.16: Epiphany

Sunday, July 19th, 2009

I was right, Angel didn’t go evil. The scene where he realizes this was very much like the one where he went evil after sleeping with Buffy, stumbling out of bed into the rain. But he didn’t. Surely for the reason I just said, no way that Darla is his ultimate happiness. [...]

Angel #2.15: Reprise

Saturday, July 18th, 2009

This episode was about 4 characters, sort of all individually. Kate gets fired from the police, and her last scene, she’s shown on the floor, with a bottle of vodka and a bottle of pills nearby. Did she kill herself out of despair? Cordelia was being lured to the house of the [...]

Angel #2.14: The Thin Dead Line

Saturday, July 18th, 2009

A police captain resurrects a bunch of dead cops, who go around shooting and killing people. Gunn tries to investigate. Wesley and Cordelia investigate some little girl who got bit by something and then had a giant creepy eye on the back of her head. They get bored researching, and go with [...]
