Angel #3.18: Double Or Nothing

Friday, September 11th, 2009

I watched this last night, but then my internets wasn’t acting funky so I didn’t post it right away. What do I remember about it? Gunn had some deal with some demon casino boss to whom, a few years back, he sold his soul. Why was it a demon casino boss, and [...]

Angel #3.17: Forgiving

Monday, September 7th, 2009

“Forgiving” wasn’t entirely about the lack of forgiveness! I didn’t mention, but last episode, after Wesley took Connor, Wesley’s throat was cut, and Connor was then taken from him. This is how Holtz ended up taking Connor to the other dimension. So yea, just after I was saying how the show was [...]

Angel #3.16: Sleep Tight

Saturday, September 5th, 2009

This was a good episode, I liked it. There was a lot of battling motivations going on, all having to do with Connor. Wesley wanted to save Connor from Angel. Angel was drinking a lot again, but because the pig’s blood was spiked with Connor’s, so he had a taste for it. [...]

Angel #3.15: Loyalty

Saturday, September 5th, 2009

Hm this episode started all mixed up and lame, but ended pretty strong. Basically I think season 3 isn’t very good, because it seems to be a bunch of stories floating around, which just come up whenever they feel like it (like Holtz, Wolfram & Hart, the love stories, etc.). The good stuff [...]

Angel #3.14: Couplet

Friday, September 4th, 2009

Heartbroken Angel and Heartbroken Wesley mope around, while Cordelia dresses Groosallug up as Angel, leading to some almost Three’s Company hinjinks. Also Gunn and Fred get caught by a ridiculous-looking Ent! In the end, Angel comes to terms somewhat and sends Cordelia and Groosallug off together. Wesley also comes to terms and [...]

Angel #3.13: Waiting In The Wings

Wednesday, September 2nd, 2009

This episode was all about the romantic relationships, and nothing else really. The awkwardly written triangle of Gunn, Wesley and Fred was cleared up a bit, ending badly for Wesley. I could kind of see that coming. Also Angel likes Cordelia and sort of vice versa, and since Cordelia is a hero [...]
