Now, one thing I've noticed about his work on Buffy, and Angel is that there are a number of times where he puts something into the story with no apparent reason. Personally - and this is completely my opinion - he doesn't know why it's there when he puts it in. He comes up with the justification afterwards, later, when he thinks that the time is right.
Now, for me, this isn't usually a complaint. However, there have been times - such as this - when I just felt it wasn't really handled very well.
Sounds like I'm not the only one.

I buy that Connor was Angel's reward for completing the trial, but I refuse to believe that just about everything that happened on Angel's show was just leading up to Jasmine. I say "nay nay."
Simon: You...you came for us.
Mal: You're on my crew.
Simon: Right. I guess I just didn't...you don't even like me.
Mal: You're on my crew. Why we still talking about this?

I agree...
I thought that Jasmine was the result of Cordy mistakenly accepting that whole 'higher power scam'
I was never clear on all of that...
but when she came back to earth she was 'wrong'
and her 'hooking up' w/Connor was clearly wrong
and all that badness led to Jasmine...
or at least that was my impression
did Joss ever really explain it in DVD commentary?

Well, just because a big evil takes credit for something doesn't make it true, right? I personally love it when the writers don't answer those questions for sure. There really is no proof that Jasmine was able to manipulate everything to such a degree that she was able to be "born" into this world. Maybe (and more likely, IMO) she was just an opportunist and took advantage of a happy accident or two.
