WARNING! If you haven't seen Angel yet, I'd avoid reading the comments, there are a lot of spoilers ahead. You have been warned.

"If nothing that we do matters, then all that matters is what we do." Possibly my favorite quote.

I loved Lorne, a character that began as a fun loving pacifist demon...and ended as a broken shell of his former self after taking a life. Every character went through changes in the series, but because he was my favourite character, for me, Lorne's was most heartbreaking.

Angel is so much more than just a buffy spin-off.

Wesley is one of the greatest characters in fiction period

You forgot the most important point. The question that looms over the fifth season and regards to the underlying themes of the duality between the main two characters. The study of primal force in comparison to the evolved stance of all mankind. The question whether it's best to just go with it, independent, or to band together, even when there is so much more to lose that way. Whether there is selfishness in unity and selflessness in the lack of it. The threads that tie in one of the saddest moments of the season. The age old question that even left the entire fanbase divided. -- -- -- -- Who would win in a fight, cavemen or astronauts?

Everytime I see Fred and Westley together my heart breaks a little

I love Angel almost as much as I love Buffy - I think I'd love it more if behind the scenes drama hadn't led to the character assassination of Cordelia. I won't be too spoiler-y but to this day it bothers me, and I agree with/ understand why people place Angel Season 5 so highly (Fred/Illyria centric episodes in particular are fantastic), but as someone who couldn't stand Cordy on Buffy and then fell in love with her on Angel, that's a betrayal from Joss I don't think I'll ever get over. Especially because of the way Charisma was treated. It's all just a horrible situation, and I do feel that Season 5 suffered terribly without her. After watching Buffy/Angel so many times, Cordy overtook Willow as my all-time favourite Buffyverse character and it does almost entirely ruin Angel for me. I don't think it's just a case of me going "waaaaaaaa look what they did to my favourite character" - it is legit shady what they did to both the character and the actress.

Honestly, I love Angel more than Buffy, it just had a more lasting impact on me. Not just an great spin off, it's an amazing show in its own right

The last half of Season 5 starting with Smile Time (also included You're Welcome) is my favourite run of episodes in television ever. Such a great way to wrap up the Buffyverse.

The episode where Angel turns into a puppet in season 5 is one of the most hilarious things I've ever seen. He was so adorable as that little grumpy puppet. I loved that episode. lmao 😂

This is an underrated gem of a show. Seasons 1 & 2 were amazing, 3 was good, 4 was meh. But season 5 was brilliant especially with the addition of Spike. Angel's & Spike's scenes together made the season. Was gutted when it was cancelled... I wish they got a chance to end the show on their own terms.

people should at least watch season 5 because spike and angel together is the funniest and best thing you'll ever see

I would have said David Boreanaz was enough reason to watch Angel, but this is a good video detailing the additional reasons. I can't wait for the Angel retrospectives.

I miss Doyle :'( RIP Glenn Quinn

Wesley has one of the best character arks I have ever seen and I’ve seen a lot. I am rewatching BTVS and Angel right now and from seeing Wesley in BTVS he was nerdy and very different to how he ended. He was head boy to rouge demon hunter to dark (because he was neglected) to depressed. And I could go on forever about many small and large things/events that you see that changed him as a person. Honestly, I’m glad they finished where they ended up to. Yes, it would have been exciting if they continued with the show but it ended on a nice ring to it. There is the comics, but I’m not the biggest fan of them. There should be more recognition on Angel and BTVS, they are both very interesting shows. I grew up on these shows and they will always be one of my favourite shows out there, also if you have seen sg1 watch SGU, because that is very interesting.

best line "I just can't seem to care"

I like this KZfaq channel better than every TV channel combined.

Wesleyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. It's hard for my friends who I've only gotten through Buffy to understand my undying intense affection for his character. Like really you're in love with the lame new watcher? And I'm just crying my bitter AtS fan tears. Seriously so many people get hung up on not watching Angel because of Angel. Which I admit is kind of a hurdle and how well I like his character probably corresponds to what's going on in the plot. At the end of the day though you are passing up an incredible ensemble show in the world of Buffy, because Angel was bland teen girl bait in Buffy. I don't know why it's so hard to believe he'd more interesting and dynamic on his own show. Also the show is so dark I joke you could play the sad drinking game in season 1. SPOILERS! Take a drink for every time a character in the shot is a character who is dead by the end of the series. It's sort of mind boggling to think about when watching earlier seasons.

It was undoubtedly one of the best endings to a season I've ever seen. All the moralising they'd ever done came down to a far simpler question of making a difference, even for a moment.

yes! he's back at last. This is interesting because I actually prefer Angel to Buffy. There's definitely more character growth, better story lines, it's darker. Characters are very flawed and it's the best thing about Angel and Buffy

I love that you included the bit about the woman in Russia. That story always stuck out to me as being very poignant. And the second you started talking about Season 5 I felt the waterworks approaching. AtS means the world to me and that finale is honestly my favorite episode of television, as much as it makes me cry.

cavemen or astronaut?

Usually, when one of the channels I'm subscribed to posts a new video and I get a notification about it, I think, "Oh, cool! I can watch that when I have some free time tomorrow." When this channel posts a new video, I go, "WHERE IS MY COMPUTER BECAUSE I NEED TO WATCH THIS RIGHT. NOW." That said, this video didn't disappoint. Now, if you'll excuse me, I think I need to go add Angel to my Netflix queue...

But... the question remains: What's a rogue demon?

I equally love both shows! Its like picking a favorite child. BTVS is the perky feel good but meaningful show while Angel is the more emo darker but also witty show. I binged Buffy on netflix and watched Angel at the same time (once i got to s4 so the crossover episodes would match up) I found myself being more excited to watch the next episode of Angel because s4 of Buffy was so stale. However looking back on it i rewatch Buffy more and recommend Buffy way more than Angel. So its like i go back and forth with it! But Angel is definitely a great show n worth the try and im excited for the upcoming episode guides!!

Thank you for bringing up some important things about Angel. First of all, it is this quote: "if nothing we do matters... then all that matters is what we do." I think this may be one of the most important thoughts to make a home for in our brains. People need to sit with this and OWN it. Also....I have always been in awe of Wesley and Cordy. Weeping laughing hanging on tooth and nail step by step awe. It is a testament to the show and the character of Angel that he inspires and encourages others to fulfill more than just their imagined potential; they grow into beings that they never realized could exist, and their light(s) are joyfully blinding. It is their journeys that contribute to making this show ineffable. There is a beauty here that simply hurts. edit and SPOILER. Overlooked in every list of it's kind: DARLA'S DEATHTH/CONNOR'S BIRTH. Nothing of it's kind compares to this. NOTHING.

That moment when I realised while I was watching an ATS episode that Jeremy Renner AKA Clint Burton/Hawkeye appeared in the Whedonverse first before the Avengers xD

plus, amy acker

Great to see you back! I love Angel. "If nothing we do matters, all that matters is what we do" is one of my favorite quotes from any medium ever.

I have to admit I got a little emotional seeing shots of season 5. Awesome video (although a bit spoilery I feel).

I fucking love the finale of Angel, it's still the best finale I have seen to this date.

"It's on netflix". YEEEY Finally! *Looks at date this video was uploaded* NOOOOOO!!

angel helped me deal with life my girlfriend died in the 2000s Wes story helped me deal with it so so much I cry still when she lies for him this is a great video if I do anything good in my life I have to thank joss ty for this

Season five just tore my heart out, but it the most beautiful way. I can't wait for your Angel episode guide!

Well, I'm off to watch Angel again!

I can't say I've seen a review that's actually moved me until I saw this review. You did an amazing job honestly, and raised the best argument to watch it. It's interesting to me that you got the exact same meaning out of it that I did.

THANK YOU FOR THIS - I have literally done panels at multiple cons that dissolved into us screaming WATCH ANGEL WATCH ANGEL NO SERIOUSLY WATCH ANGEL. This is much more eloquent.

To this day, one of the best TV series I've ever watched.

Buffy and Angel are two of my favourite shows ever

_squeal_ You're back! "that one guy from bones" is literally how I could describe Boreanaz to anybody. This video was epic and I can't wait for more from you. No pressure!

Buffy and angel > Charmed

I don't know why but the last part with the music at the end teared me up. I love the show angel and buffy the vampire slayer

This was my favorite show growing up that and Buffy. Mostly Angel for the reasons you described, although I may not have realized it at the time. I liked that every character had their own stories to tell.... and no to mention David (Angel) is really good looking.

After a hard night out with buddies, staying in to rehydrate my brain and binge watching Buffy and Angel breakdowns sounds like the cure to me!

Remember when spike and Cordelia were on supernatural?

Aaaaaah. Saw this zillions of times and still I do have tears in my eyes exactly at the moment when first tone of "Remembering Jeny" hits. It´s like Pavlov´s reflex or something.

I got pretty far in this show for Cordelia, but Connor ruined it for me. I'm a Dawn apologist, but there's no excuse for Connor. But idk, maybe I'll suffer through a few more bad episodes if season five is as good as people say it is.

Excellent video! If any Angel fan wants to know what happens to Angel and the group after that final scene in the alley way in the last episode, then I highly suggest reading After the Fall. It's one of the greatest comic book series I've ever read, and it continues the show (it's basically season 6) as if it were written by the series' best writers. Believe me, you won't regret it.

I can't wait for your Angel reviews. A few days ago I got my girlfriend to watch Buffy finally and now we're already up to season 3 since she can't stop watching it.

I have a very love hate relationship with Angel. I love love seasons 1,2,5 and first part of 3. but I hate season 4 and what the writers did to Cordelia Chase. UGGGGGGHHH.......I am still mad at that 11 years later

watched Angel cause of Cordelia

That was wonderful. Angel was a very good show. I watched it when it came on TV and I literally sat awestruck through every commercial - of course I eventually yelled at my TV to hurry up, it never listens to me - just because Angel is such an interesting show. I enjoyed the video. I wish I could've watched it sooner. It's officially one of my favs. I love your point of view and look. forward to more! As I always say "Someone finally understands!"

This video gave me goosebumps. I need to do an Angel re-watch...like *NOW*! It truly is a great show. Although I feel like a weirdo b/c S4 is by far my favorite. I *love* how serialized it is, where each episode begins where the previous left off. The whole season is like one long episode, and it's a roller coaster ride! And S5 is actually my 2nd least fav after S1. Although there are some parts that are absolutely brilliant, there are other parts that are like an absolute trainwreck :\ But anyhoo, great job! No one could have given a more convincing argument to watch Angel :)

this ep is so great! i love your take on Angel. and yes, i love the finale. it is not a cliche like heros always win in the end. the end is open to interpretations while it also is pretty obvious. i love that quote before the big fight " the powerful controls everything, except our will to choose. Heros don't accept the way the world is."

This came up on my front page just now, and I literally did a little dance. It's, like, 9 in the morning, so that's a big deal for me!! I am waiting eagerly for the rest of your Buffy reviews, and the fact that you plan to do an Angel episode guide as well makes me super happy!! That being said, please hurry the eff up and get on season 3 of Buffy before I explode with anticipation.

SPOILER ALERT FOR THE ENTIRE SERIES! Having just finished rewatching this series, I just have to say - the cancellation of Angel at the end of season 5 was a far more terrible problem than I originally thought when I watched 'Not Fade Away', the finale. Not just because season 5 was the best and season 6 had the potential to be even better, and not just because the series ends on a cliffhanger (that cliffhanger is a completely fitting end, thematically), but because of a far more central issue - the characters' arcs ended on the wrong place. At the end of 'Not Fade Away', team Angel wasn't just facing impossible odds (which *does* make perfect sense as the end, thematically), it was also COMPLETELY MORALLY BANKRUPT. Well, not completely, but very, *very* immoral. Angel's actions in that episode were not guided by "If nothing we do matters, then all that matters is what we do", they were guided by "Heroes don't accept the world the way it is, they fight it". Which, of course, was said by LINDSEY, of all people. AKA the bad guy. I'll explain: In the finale, Angel consistently chooses to do things that go against the show's philosophy - he executes Lindsey (what about redemption?) through Lorne's hands (so much for saving people's souls), he kills a good guy, Drogyn, so he can get to kill more bad guys (I thought all that matters is what we do?), he kills archduke Sebasis by poisoning and killing his innocent servant (collateral damage anyone?), he brainwashes an innocent politician into believing he's a pedophile so he (Angel) can keep his undercover status, and of course, he risks the lives of his entire team (not to mention anyone getting in the crossfire) for the sake of a mission that he KNOWS is not necessary, and won't change anything. It is admirable that Angel wanted to stick to his principles and fight the bad guys without compromise, and it is admirable that he was willing to sacrifice his life for the good fight, but once he started doing evil things for the greater good, his actions stopped being heroic, and started being selfish and misguided, and simply evil. He pretty much became Jasmine, in the final episode of the show. Of course, all of these immoral acts don't constitute a problem by themselves - I love grey characters, and Angel's actions definitely make sense given his arc over the season (and the series as a whole, up to that point), and it makes perfect sense that season 5 would end with Angel being morally compromised, given the season's themes of corruption and "selling out", and the whole thing actually has a sort of poetry to it - Wolfram & Hart brought Angel to their L.A branch so they could corrupt him into being a nihilistic puppet who did their bidding, and ended up corrupting Angel by turning him into a takes-no-prisoners fanatic zealot who hurt them more than ever, instead. It's perfect, as a PART of the story. The problem is that it can't end there. You can end the story with Angel as a tragic hero who does evil because of good intentions, but then you'd have to end the story with Angel *recognizing* his mistakes and having a "what have I done?" moment. And 'Not Fade Away' doesn't have any moment like that. It works PERFECTLY as a *season* finale, but it is NOT a *series* finale. That's just not what it is. It is an end of one chapter, that *demands* a next chapter to deal with its consequences. The problem with the end of AtS is... that it is *not* an end. It is a to-be-continued, and not because of the fact that we don't know if the gang survived the last fight. Of course, that last *scene* IS perfectly suitable as the end of the series, but it should never have appeared in that *episode*, or even that *season*. The "Let's go to work" scene should have been reserved for the end of the 6th season, if we had gotten it. As the end of season 5, it pretty much *contradicts* everything else we see in the episode, thematically. I can accept it as a compromise that the writers had to do because of the abrupt cancellation of the show, but I just don't see how you can describe it as "one of the best finales I've ever seen". It is a terrific *season* finale, but it is a fundamentally flawed *series* finale. Just my 2 cents. All of this, of course, means that I'm even MORE happy that we got a canonical continuation of both shows. 'Angel: After the Fall' was problematic, IMO, but 'Angel & Faith' makes perfect sense as the continuation of Angel's story, given where the TV series ended up leaving him (Of course, you have to read Buffy season 8 before you read 'Angel & Faith'). I highly recommend it, if you haven't read it.

You don't get to use Christophe Beck against us. You just don't

WOW! That description of season 5 was Beautiful.

I love Angel waaaay more than I like Buffy. I watched Buffy but was never a big fan, but I loved Angel, and I've seen the show multiple times. Great video, thank you

omggggggg 6:30, I cry every timeeeeeeeee. My poor heart :(

I love, love, love this video. You so elegantly summed up the entire soul of this show. I am very impressed! You made me tear up ;)

I just love the setting of Buffy and Angel. Along the side of World of Darkness, and the Secret World, Buffyverse is one of the most fleshed out and cool supernatural mythologies.

When that piano starts... chills, tears... feels... (I love cheap thrills!) Thank you, sir ^_^

Angel season 4 is my favourite season of either show, yes i know, i am in a minority of 1. As always thank you for doing this, lt is my favourite KZfaq channel.

Hey, Ian's back at it! Hi Ian! So when you took your break I had not seen a single episode of Angel. I was saving it in a way, like an unopened box of candy. But after your break, at some point I decided to crack it open and I've seen the whole thing now. It's so very difficult to put into words, just as you described. Buffy is undoubtedly funnier, the individual characters stand out more, the journey feels more personal. But I almost feel like, and most obviously by season 5, that the writers KNEW that and deliberately incorporated it into both the broader arc and the philosophy of the show, and I'll try to explain why. With Buffy, everything revolves around her being the Slayer, her being so special. Everyone's lives are affected by it, by how she does it or doesn't do it, how they support her or don't, and the role she plays in the greater scheme of things. The show contains some hard lessons, but it's ultimately always got a strong element of wish fulfillment to it because of that. If Angel is a show about being an adult, one of the hardest things to accept about being an adult is the reality that you may not be as special as you thought you were, that you may not matter that much in the scheme of things. That you can do everything right and work your whole life at doing something good and still have it come out to nothing, because the essential nature of things is set against your attempts to make it better. It's a horrible, tragic idea that most of us try not to think about in our daily lives, and it's either implied or on several occasions explicitly stated to Angel and his friends through the entire show. They deny it, defy it, make quips about it, do all sorts of heroic things to doggedly oppose this notion and, in the end, we're left to assume they go to their deaths defying it. It IS noble, and inspiring, but it's also so radically different from Buffy. Buffy's always important, always the center of not only the show but of the whole battle of good versus evil. Whatever happens to her is significant, win or lose, and being the focal point in such a way reflects a certain youthful idealism. Despite Angel's stated importance as a key figure in a coming apocalypse, he's nothing like her. And you never get the sense in Buffy that she and her friends may simply be steamrolled by the world and forgotten like you do in Angel, where they could all die and the world would just keep turning and all that would have mattered is what they did while they could, and what they were to each other. That's something adults have to accept, and it's a much bleaker and more poignant reality that's only revealed very gradually, through the longer, more involved arcs and ethos of the show. It makes everything that happens in the fifth season more meaningful, more tragic, more heartbreaking, and I feel only makes it's full impact when you've taken in the series in it's entirety.

Oh man, I don't know if I can handle season 5 again. Angel may be my favourite show of all time

“If there is no bigger meaning, then the smallest act of kindness is the greatest thing in the world” has always stuck with me.

Great video!! although I have to disagree with the fact that Buffy's themes are only related to Buffy herself. In Buffy most of the characters have amazing character arcs and develop crazy depth eg. Willow, Xander, Spike, Anya, Faith and even Andrew!! However, in Angel there are some characters such as Fred, Gunn and Lorne who are very underused. I obviously love both shows but it does make me mad that everyone keeps saying that Buffy is only about Buffy, while it is true that most themes revolve around her that doesnt mean that the other important characters in the show don't get any development. Sorry for the rant but I had to put it out there. Love the video and the channel thi

Excellent video! I admit I have a weird relationship with Angel. I really enjoyed it, but I'll never love it as much as I loved Buffy. I think part of the problem was that I was watching both series at the same time on Netflix, but because I was pre-invested in Buffy, I just kept "getting through" the Angel episodes to the next Buffy episode. It didn't help that getting into the series was a bit hard, because I found season 1 to be kind of slow and without a strong character drive. That being said, season 5 was probably the most enjoyable to me (a great mix of light hearted silly with absolutely devastating tragedy), but season 3 has my favourite arc, and probably the best written season. I hated season 4. If you're still doing the guide up til then (and it's far away for sure), I can't wait to see what you say about it. But in general, I can't wait until you start doing Angel guides. In retrospect I love Angel more than when I watched it, and I'm sure your guide will solidify that.

I was considering an Angel rewatch, and you've convinced me. Totally agree with everything you said.

I could not have said it better Sir. I am so glad I found your channel. I would also say that "Smile Time" and "You're Welcome" are worth watching all of Angel in and of themselves. Don't even get me started on "Hole in the World" and "She'll" because I will start crying.

I.... think I'm in love with you

I loved Buffy, but never could get into Angel when it originally debuted. Because I enjoy your episode guides for Buffy so much, I decided to give Angel another shot. I was just about convinced that my first impression was correct when I reached the episode where Faith showed up in L.A. Now i'm curious enough to watch a few more...I particularly liked Angel essentially telling Buffy to grow up and accept that she's not the center of his universe anymore.

I wish I could watch Angel for the first time again!! I started watching Buffy from the get go back in the day when you could only watch it at a certain time on normal TV, then this show Angel came on afterwards - I didn't know they were doing a spin-off and from the first episode I was hooked!! And until the end of both shows that was my regaulr night watching those back to back (except for season 5 naturally). I was and still am a bit heartbroken that the show finished early IMO, but man how good was Season 5 which is still to this day the greatest finish to any TV series.

oh man, this video made me all teary-eyed just remembering it!

i cried. again watching this channel

Angel seasons 1, 2, and 3 made me laugh and kept me invested. Season 4 was absolute guttertrash and an insult towards all the actors Season 5 had all the makings of a show that should have been continued, but fucking networks, what can ya do. Smile Time was one of the best episodes ever, while ANY episode with Fred and later Illeria just completed messed me up =[

Angel.. neither man nor monster. Fights for redemption one day while battling his inner monster. Love it.

I think season 4 of Angel is my favorite. I know people hate Connor and the Cordelia twist (so do I, vehemently)... but the way that season worked, with it easily being the most serialized season of either show, made me really enjoy it. I also love the tone of it. It was so bleak and filled with dread... I just felt so different from anything they'd done.

Holy shit yeah season 5 was amazing. you give me goosebumps thinking about it.

There's a hole in the world. Feels like we ought to have known.

It's years away but can't wait for your summaries and analysis of season 5! Fond memories..

Season 5!😢** Tears** the s5 section of the video was beautiful!!

Holy CRAP that news story! Mind = Blown! Great, great video, Ian, well worth the wait :) It's even better than your "Why You Should Watch Buffy" video, despite having a much tougher sell. And you had to twist the knife with those season 5 clips, didn't ya? ;) Also, just for the sake of nitpicking - Isn't Xena considered to be the classic example of a good spin-off? 'Cuz it was much more succesful than its parent-show? I mean, I haven't watched it in years, but that's what a lot of people say...

Angel was an excellent show and I believe it was cancelled because its story got a little too close to the truth. Metaphoricaly...think about it.

Well damn, I think I need to buy the next few Angel comics now. Thanks for reminding me how much I loved this show.

6:28: "Sometimes right is right, regardless of its futility." You can talk it to death, try to rationalize it 100 ways. But the right thing is the right thing, is the right thing. A vampire detective taught me that.

1) yes! a new TPN video! 2) it is so hard to tell people with a straight face that they should watch a show where angel goes to la and opens a detective agency.

Great analysis on Angel. Its a great show, people should watch it. It's all set in the same universe. I think sometimes fans get too caught up in the Buffy vs Angel debate to the point where their selfish outlooks on the shows make them want to pretend they don't exist in the same universe...except they do and continue to do so in novel/comic form. For fans who are fans of both shows, this isn't a problem and its one of the Buffyverses greatest strengths. Buffy wouldn't have been nearly as strong it was in the first 3 seasons without Angel being a part of it. Likewise Angel wouldn't have been the show that it was had it not burrowed from the Buffyverse (Cordelia/Wesley/other verse characters) and tried to be its own thing. Buffy is a much more witty show that undergoes several changes throughout its 7 seasons. The first 3 seasons being campy with dark undertones, while Season 4 was a transitional season to what the show would eventually become with its much more darkened final 3 seasons when Buffy was forced into more real life crisis and being an adult herself. Yet the scope of good characters on Buffy were far better I'd say. I'd put Willow, Xander, Oz, Faith, Giles, hell even Riley, Dawn and Anya ahead of the Angel original characters. Angel was more about being an adult, and that theme was pretty prevalent throughout all 5 seasons on Angel. However its weakness isn't its consistency, but its lack of compelling original characters. I don't peg Cordy or Wes as original characters. Yes, they developed more on Angel, but they are Buffy originals. Lorne was the only exclusive character on Angel I felt really compelled about and the finale was sad times on that one. Charles Gunn and Fred were written well......but....soooooo boring, so so fucking boring to me. The only times I ever felt invested in either was stretches during the final two seasons. This is a case where the characters are written well but yeah...I just couldn't get invested in either too much throughout the series. Also where Angel differentiates itself from Buffy is this villain group that sorta lingers throughout the entire series. The problem here is the two people we focus on have almost no net worth to the finality of the story. Whereas other villains who weren't part of the big plan I felt made far greater impact to the story. So yeah...both shows are great, but I suppose you have to have an acquired taste to like either or. One thing is for sure...modern vampire fluff steals soooo much from Buffy/Angel its pathetic. True Blood, Vampire Diaries, Twilight on down the line....they are all fluff...Whedon actually built his universe from the ground up...all that modern stuff is so shallow and inept by comparison to what Whedon did with his deep universe. Point being...if you aren't a fan of vampire anything and you want a place to start....I wouldn't start with anything modern. Start with Whedon's Buffy/Angel shows...because its about the characters, the monsters are merely metaphors along the way.

I've missed your voice and insight, PotN. It's good to know there'll be new content from you. I was worried for a minute there.

I was stuck close to the end of season 3 for such a long time (I originally tried to watch it with Buffy on my very first watch, but I got way too sucked into BS5 to care about AS2, I then tried to watch it on its own and just sort of lost interest). After this video I finally decided to keep going. Halfway through season 4 right now and I'm really enjoying it more than I ever did. These videos are great man!

Aaaargh why would you use Remembering Jenny for the last portion of the video?! I only just marathon'd Angel seasons 4&5 a couple of months ago so the feels are still fresh. Great video.

"A thing is not beautiful because it lasts." Why must you hurt me?

Another absolutely stunning line IMO was "Heroes don't accept the world for what it is." Never have. Never will.

Yay, a new post. I was hoping for a new Buffy one, but I will take this. I've just started rewatching Angel, so I'm really into it right now.

Angel will allways be better then buffy ever was.

i cant watch Buffy or Angel without thinking all the sad moments D:

I watched the Buffy episode and then this....you have earned my undying subscription...

I actually only watched Buffy cuz I’d seen Angel and Firefly and was starting to fall in love with the Jossverse. I love re-watching Cordy and Wes grow. Gunn is not exactly terrible, but he was fairly blah to me and therefore I have and always shall ship Wes/Fred, lol. Also the whole Illyria thing was SO sad to me cuz I kept thinking surely they’re gonna heal her/get Fred back somehow.
