Phoenixship,
No worries. Although, Lorne's shooting Wesley twice certainly would have been a pretty shocking way to take those two characters out of the story!

With regards to Spike's poem - is that the one he wrote the night he became a vampire? Because that poem used the word 'effulgent', didn't it?

Second, who is anne?
EDIT: Yes, the poem is the one heard in the Buffy episode "Fool for Love."
Anne is the character we first met in the Buffy episode Lie to Me, as Chantarelle. Then she turned up in the Buffy episode Anne as Lily. Finally, she had appeared twice on Angel as Anne, in Blood Money and The Thin Dead Line. She changed her name each time she took on a new persona, finally taking the name Anne from Buffy (who used it, her middle name, when she ran away after having to kill Angel) and coming into her own.

This comes from the conversation Wes had with Illyria earlier when Wes said that the first thing he learned as a watcher was to spread the truth from the illusion and since he had no intention on dying he did not want Illyria to 'lie' to him by assuming Fred's form, but since he was dying, it was fitting that he died 'happy'

Wesley is dead, I am grieved for him, I can't control it, I want to do more violence.
I gotta say for as much as the WB "thank you" bit pissed me off! I'd have been far more upset had they done nothing. You have to know there had to be some folk st the WB who did not agree with the suits, I feel that moment was from them.
I have a friend who used to work at WB, she got me hooked up with the Series Finale poster.

It says "His last stand will be his finest hour.
I'll add more thoughts as they come to me.

About the thank you thing -- when did Angel get to be 277? In Halloween, they said he was 18 in 1775, which would put his birth in 1757, and make him 247 in 2004. He said he was 243 in Earshot, which was 1999, which would make him 248 in 2004. Either way, where did the extra thirty years come from?

Maybe from the WB not having a clue? Fuck you very much, frog.

All in all a more satisfying finale than was Buffy's. Only because the Buffy finale felt like it needed an extra hour far more than the Angel finale did.
Not that I would've complained about an extra hour last night, mind you.

I think Wesley's death is the only death that would've carried any emotional weight at this point (short of Angel at Spike's death bed or vice versa.. either would have been a BIG death but neither romantic).
I hope Gunn survives somehow. I liked that character. Ilyria was really starting to grow on me... great performance from Amy Acker!
The Spike poetry slam was priceless!! He even dedicated the poem to Cecily! Give that character his own series!!
Lindsey has always been a loose cannon. Angel used this fact to his advantage and then did away with the cannon before it pointed itself back at him. Having Lorne take out Lindsey was a surprise... to Lindsey mostly.
Seeing Anne again was fun. How cool is it that that actress gets to be in the Angel finale, but SMG does not?
Harmony... another loose cannon but not so threatening that she needs dusting, apparently. But really... hasn't this always been the case?
BTW: Both Drew Goddard and Jeffrey Bell are apparently signed on to write Alias next season!!
