I love Angel as much as the next person, I mean it was a great show BUT I think (personally) that the last season rocked due to the introduction of Spike.
I am even starting to think that Spike is actually a better character and not just that but better looking

I too think that Spike is an excelent character but the reason that season 5 was so great was because Spike and Angel played so well off of eachother.

OK, so I've never even seen season 5 of Angel - due to livign in the UK and not having the cash to purchase the DVD but I'd still say Spike over Angel any day ... Granted they both get given fairly witty lines but Angel is just too damn darka dn broody for me!!

Spike, definatly. And you MUST see Season 5 and enough w/ the excuses. It's some of Joss's best stuff ever.

Spike, absolutely. Who else could get away with calling Angel "Captain Forehead", or remarking that Angel had to get "some more of that nancy hair-gel"? :)
I didn't really care for Angel as a character at all, UNTIL I started watching Angel (the show). Then I started to appreciate him, but Spike still got much better, much funnier lines 9 times out of 10. Sure, if you were in a dark alley cornered by big-bads you'd want Angel to have your back, but at least with Spike at your side you'd have a chance to die laughing...

Grrrrr. Arrrgghh.

Spike...and always will be Spike. I never was much of an Angel fan. I like him, but I find him whissy washy...which can be great at times if someone makes fun of him like Spike for example.

Oh, one of the funnier moments (from Season 5)....
Select to view spoiler:
where Angel tells the group that one of them will betray him, and in a nano second, Spike raises his hand, as if to volunteer. Hi-larious!
For those who've not seen S5, chop chop! Get to it!

Hands down, Spike. While Angel has some amusing moments (imagining himself dancing, for example), Spike is just waaaayyy funnier. Not to mention hot.

Angel and Spike are both extra-awesome, and Angel is great with the deadpan humour. However, I think Spike was awesomest without the soul. Angel is awesome either way, though.

OK I have to go against what seems to be the grain here. I'm always gonna vote for angel. Not to say that Spike isn't a great character, deep and hi-larious. "...and now I'm just a bigfluffy puppy." Spike makes me laugh hi=-sterically, However, I'm a sucker for the tortured soul thing. That inward turmoil and self doubt always drew me to Angel's character. Joss himself said that we identify with all the characters pain and that's why Buffy was always in pain. So I'll give Spike his due, but when it comes down to the two, I'm gonna cast my vote for Angel.
