The 100th episode ( the title is not coming to mind at the moment)

As much as we loved to hate Cordy on Buffy, I grew to love her in Angel.

I watched Angel first and thought that Cordy was a pretty perky, lovable character, and about time I reached the end of season 2 of Angel, I loved her, but when I went back and started watching Buffy, I was so shocked at what a bitch, total spoiled brat Cordella had been!

What do you mean 'say goodbye?' Does Cordella die?? No!!! Don’t spoil it!!!

River: The 100th ep of Angel was Cordy's last appearance on the show. I guess she figured 100 was a nice, even number and a good time to move on. No spoilage. Better hurry and catch up, though, before someone DOES spoil something for you!

Charisma Carpenter can now be seen, at least occasionally, on Veronica Mars now. I've only watched S1 of that, but she comes along in S2, apparently as the same bitchy, spoiled brat that we loved to hate in Buffy - only this time, I gather she's someone's step-mom!

RiveR, if it's any consolation, I sailed in these threads before seeing it all, and hell, even ASKED for spoilers, and it didn't take away any of the juicy Jossy excellence.
It's all good.

And when yer done, you still have Dark Angel to discover...

I loved this ep, and blubbed over it too.

!!!Spoilers below!!!

However, in hindsight, it didn't make much sense to me that Angel would give it all up because he couldn't fight to help save Buffy. Here's why.

1. Xander has no superpowers and he helps save Buffy all the time. You do what you can with what you got, ya know?

2. If he DID give all that up to help save Buffy, then he should have been there to help save Buffy in all her big fights where her life was at high risk. But he wasn't, even when she died. So what did he give it all up for?

3. If he didn't help Buffy in her big fights because he respected Buffy's wishes, then he should have respected them enough to ask Buffy before he gave it all up. Makes sense doesn't it, to ask the love of your life--cause you know, the decision affects her too. Hey Buff, would you rather that I stick around you as a helpless, but loyal companion or would you rather I return to be a superhero, and stay apart so we can both fight the good fight?

So, though I enjoyed it, it no longer ranks among my fav Angel eps.

Canttakesky, you just nailed the reasons I don't actually own that ep, it was great the first time I watched it, but these nagging points were always at the back of my mind, and I didn't want to think them through like you did here. Logic, however, must sometimes be thrown out the window to enjoy art, and this ep was a manipulative masterpiece.

Yep, it is. At the time, this ep convinced me to go out and buy all 5 seasons of Angel. It's a marketing episode, and we have to be lenient with advertisements.

I do, however, own the disc with The Ring, Eternity, Five By Five and Sanctuary on it- four of my five favourites (the fifth being In The Dark, which I might get later).
