Hush is season 4. Fool for Love is THE season 5 episode, as well as The Gift.



Ooops, that's right - I meant The Body, not Hush.

I have my own little theory that helps me get past this very thing:

What we call martial arts originated with the demons. They all have the skills innately as part of their nature. Humans studied and learned their fighting techniques as a way of standing a chance of defending themselves.

Kung-Fu has always mimicked animal forms, perhaps the earliest 'animals' mimicked were demons...?
If so, your theory is quite sound!

Whoah Chrisisall



That's what I like about you, Chris: you're open to new ideas. Especially mine.

No, really! It makes a really weird kind of sense!
I think you really just helped me w/most of my problem- thanks!

Never thought about it before Chrisisall

Okay, I'm done w/AtS S1, and know what? My favourite eps were the ones w/Buffy and Faith.
I guess I just like Buffy better than Angel...

Welp, I guess if your faves were the ones with Buffy and Faith, that does indeed answer your question.

What'd you think about those two with Faith? I thought they were fantastic. That story really drew me into ANGEL--made me want more.

What'd you think about the end of ep 22 of ANGEL? I couldn't wait to get the S2 DVD's after that.

I too can echo the sentiment buffy, Buffy, BUFFY!

But now *drum roll* BUFFY Season 5!

Looking forward to your reactions to it.

The Faith eps were awsome; she was so psycho from the start, at the club where she started the fight, and kept dancing!!!!
Her breakdown in front of Angel was touching (you know, like almost sad in a way), and it was cool to see her take the first step towards responsibility at the end.
The end show of Angel had me, um, well - I watched a Buffy ep right after

David just doesn't do it for me Chrisisall

OK, you go watch Buffy season 5 first. It really is great, with a strong overall arc and some great individual episodes. But I still think Angel S2 is better, and you'll have to check that out at some point. David gets a lot more to do in the second season.

P.S. I never really cared for Angel when he was on Buffy.

Yeah? Seeing Darla in that cage made say "alright, this is gonna be good". But S2 is my choice for best ANGEL season. Strong character arcs in that one.

Welp, let us know when you start BUFFY S5.

How'd you feel about David when he played Angelus?
