You could go to Amazon and pick up the old VHS box set of the Best Of Buffy/Angel romance episodes. It's a really cheap way (people selling it used for under 5 bucks) to catch up on the great history of Buffy and Angel.

How is 'did you see Angel last night?' confusing? I've never heard anyone say 'did you see Wesley last night?'... ;)


They did indeed after some of those eppies featuring his escapades with Lilah. "Leave them on!" charki

Really it should have been over during Angel S3 but they resurrected it for a few pointless scenes later on (and an entire pointless ep right at the death). But yeah, twas beautiful for a while there ;)

aaaaargh, nooooooo. the buffy/angel love story was the worst bit of both serieses. angel, the dark powerful warrior type that he can be was reduced to a simpering wreck. btvs is well worth watching, but more for other stuff, xander and spike being funny, faith being a real kick-arse slayer, and some of those fantastic episodes like joss' trilogy of different audio tracks in hush, the body and once more with feeling.

And what, you thought Angel/Cordelia was more convincing?...

i'm not saying anything about convincing anywhere, and it's certainly a matter of personal taste thing, and the fact that smg does very little for me in a romantic lead type way, but yeah. maybe. ummm, that's kinda irrelevant for my point though. my problem was just that i didn't like who angel was around buffy. to be honest i really didn't think that spinning off angel into his own show would work due to him being such a weak character (unlike the much much much better angelus) in my eyes. glad to be proved wrong, cheers joss :)

so i'm not trying to put down anyone who liked that relationship (and i know thats a lot of people) or de-value it for them. rather, i'm pointing out that there are also people who love btvs and have all the seasons on dvd and entirely and wholehearted recommend them despite disliking the buffy/angel arc. anyway, i always though she and pike were forever ;)

maybe i should've added some smilies and imhos to my first post.
