With every fibre of my being, I love ANGEL, and it deepens even more with each viewing.
From the introduction, in which Angel explains a little about how he came to L.A., to Doyle's telling him about the Powers That Be and his mission (Angel:"Why would a woman I've never met even talk to me?" Doyle, laughing:"Have you looked in the mirror lately? No, I guess you really haven't, no.")
, to Angel jumping in the wrong car while on his way to save the girl
, to his inability to save the girl
, and finally saving the 'right' girl
, all the way to his sending the bad guy 'into the light'
, and making the decision to stick around and fully accept his mission.
This show is pure gold!

I'll join you, jwhedonaddict.
Ever since I finished watching the series on DVD, I still routinely get up early to watch my favorite episodes on TNT. It's actually gotten to the point where I watch Angel more than Buffy (I know, I'm a bad, bad girl ). Angel resonates with me more than Buffy, I think, because of the more mature themes that are handled. That and I got more than a little pissed at some of Buffy's characters

I can relate, or have related in the past, to damn near everything about all Joss's shows, I think.
Angel season 2 and Buffy Season 6, especially are recurring themes in my life even now. Edit: Plus, the part of Willow's dream in "Restless" in which she subconsciously still sees herself (or thinks that's how others still view her) as a dork--yep, still there.
