Angel: Season 1
(http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/8/87/Angel101.jpg)1. City Of
Newly arrived in Los Angeles, Angel is befriended by a half-demon named Doyle who visions lead him to a powerful vampire whose next victim just may be Cordelia Chase.
Guest Stars:
Tracy Middendorf
Vyto Ruginis
Christian Kane
My Thoughts:
I remembered when I first heard Angel got his own spinoff... I was concerned it wouldn't be any good. But I was pleasantly surprised. I actually enjoyed it a lot. I also liked that they brought Cordelia over. At this point she is still pretty prissy... but they do change that as this show goes on. Her character definitely grows up quite a bit during this show. The pilot episode is a lot of fun. I really liked towards the end when Angel comes to the mansion to save Cordelia... and when he shows up Cordelia comes out with... "You don't know who he is".... "Oh Boy... You are going to get your ass kicked!" LOL. Some reason I love that line every time I see it.

Another of Doyle's visions leads the newly formed Angel Investigations to a trendy bar where they face off against a worm-like demon who eviscerates its victims.
Guest Stars:
Elisabeth Rohm
Lillian Birdsell
Obi Ndefo
Derek Hughes
My Thoughts:
This is the first episode that has the character of Detective Kate Lockley. It is a pretty good episode... but not what I would call a great one. I liked the introduction of Kate... and it did have some good fight scenes in it. But for some reason it didn't click for me. Maybe because I never been one to frequent bars and clubs. I did however get a kick out of Doyle getting into a bar fight to defend Cordelia's honor. That is another thing... I always disliked Cordelia in the episodes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. But in this series I like her. Only a little at this point... but she soon grows as a person... and as she does she grew on me as well.

Oz arrives in L.A. with a ring from Buffy which must be kept from Spike at all costs - and which would allow Angel to walk in the light of day.
Guest Stars:
Seth Green
James Marsters
Kevin West
Malia Mathis
My Thoughts:
I always liked it when cast of Buffy the Vampire Slayer came guest starred on Angel. This is the first time we get that when Spike follows Oz taking the ring to Angel. Since this story started on an episode of Buffy... I went ahead and watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Season 4 - The Harsh Light of Day before watching this episode so I could get the entire story in. Not sure if I will do that with every cross-over episode or not... but I wanted to do it tonight. This episode is good. I actually kinda liked seeing Angel getting tortured and needing help. It is a nice change from how the series usually goes.

This is a good episode. Has an interesting storyline. And the effects were pretty cool as well. Seeing hands movie by themselves and an eyeball floating in the air.

Guest Stars:
Elisabeth Rohm
Beth Grant
Marcus Redmond
Denney Pierce
My Thoughts:
This is actually one of my favorite of the early episodes. I liked both storylines and how they combined them at the end of the episode. Plus you couldn't help getting a kick out of Cordelia getting pissed at the ghost towards the end. She said it perfectly when she said "The Bitch is Back!" I also got a kick out of her new "roommate". It really is a fun episode.

A good episode... we find out a bit about Doyle's past in this one. Cordelia is really starting to like Doyle by now. But at this point she still don't know he is part demon. At the very end of this episode Doyle has a vision about Buffy... so this must be the prelude to the first time Angel goes back to Buffy for an episode.

My Thoughts:
Here we have the first time Buffy appears on Angel. It is a good... if somewhat sad episode of you ever wanted to see Buffy and Angel together. The storyline is pretty good. I got a bit of a laugh when Angel first turned human and rushed to the refrigerator. But of course... as always when you get Buffy and Angel together... this is more drama then anything else.

Guest Stars:
Tony Denman
Anthony Cistaro
Michelle Horn
Lee Arenberg
My Thoughts:
It is now time to say goodbye to Doyle (Glenn Quinn). It is shame his time on Angel was so short as I enjoyed his character. This is another good episode. Cordelia finds out about Doyle... prepares to go out with him... and loose him all in one episode. So this one was definitely more of a dramatic storyline then it was comedic. So not to much here to even give you a little chuckle. Well maybe Doyle trying to do the commercial. But that is about it.

This is an episode I really enjoyed a lot! It had a very interesting story. I liked that Kate finally found out about the demons that are really out there.

A good episode... though it does start out a little slow. And the whole star wanting to be a vampire to stay looking young is a story that was told before... more then once.

My Thoughts:
Until I seen Lorne (The Host) on the cover I completely forgot about the karaoke bar. Now I am not looking forward to this season as much. The very first scene is Lorne singing a little. Then there was 2 more scenes in the bar through-out the episode. Including Angel singing (badly) Mandy. But other then that... it was a good episode... with some decent action. But I had to laugh at the end of the episode when Angel went to visit Faith in jail. And they were comparing how bad their day was... after listening to Faith say how she was attacked by another inmate with a make-shift knife and how she disarmed her but didn't killer her. Then she was beat by the guards. Angel came back with well I had to sing Barry Manilow... in front of people. We also get our first look at the old hotel that will eventually become the new home base for Angel and his team.

A good episode. We get lots of time getting to know Gunn some in this one. him together with Cordelia for most the episode gave us some good laughs. As did Angel wearing a pink helmet while riding on the back of Wesley's motorcycle.

My Thoughts:
This may be my least favorite episode of Angel. It is definitely my least favorite up to this point. I always found this one to be just slow and boring. Especially the scenes in the Ballet. Until today I never realized that the Prima Ballerina was played by Summer Glau (Firefly & Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles).

I enjoyed this one as well. Wesley has a long road ahead of him to get Angel to forgive him and trust him again. At this point the only thing Angel wants is to see Wesley dead. I can understand it too... why didn't Wesley go to the team... a team he considered family... with the information he had and try to figure things out that way? It would have saved a whole lot of grief.

I enjoyed this one. It was fun to watch Angel and Connor fighting side by side. And how they fight so similar even though he grew up apart from Angel.

Seems like they are using it as a serve all purpose type thing at this point.

A fun episode... but not quite as good as the previous couple. I noticed there was a commentary track for this episode with the guy that plays Lorne. So I watched it both with and without the commentary. As I said... I enjoyed the episode without the commentary. And while always fun for me to watch an episode with an actor commentary on... this one really added very little. I definitely heard better commentaries.

Original Air Date: 10/27/2002
After months of existing on a higher plane, Cordelia inexplicably appears back at the hotel - with no idea why or even how she arrived there. Sadly, a serious case of amnesia prevents Cordy from remembering either her friends or her past. Believing the full truth may scare her off, the gang attempts to hide the freaky facts about their lives. Unfortunately, that secrecy leads to mistrust on Cordy's part when the reality of their situation is revealed. Things get even more complicated when Lorne reads her mind and sees a terrifying vision of the future. Meanwhile, outcast Connor struggles to find his place in the world.

(http://www.buffymaniac.it/episodi/images/ats087peaceout.jpg)21. Peace Out
Original Air Date: 4/30/2003
Angel goes on a mission to find proof that his son Connor wasn’t simply a vessel designed to bring the evil Jasmine (guest star Gina Torres), who is hell-bent on destroying everyone, into the world. Meanwhile, Connor goes in search of the missing Cordelia.
Guest Stars:
Gina Torres
Stephanie Romanov
Robert Towers
My Thoughts:
Another good episode. Though not quite as good as the previous one. This is the final episode of Jasmine. Kind of weird seeing the "big bad" being taken care of an episode before the season finale. But if I remember right Buffy the Vampire Slayer did this same thing one season also.

Meanwhile, Angel has a chance to change the future for his son Connor, who is physically and emotionally lost and wandering through the city.
Guest Stars:

My Thoughts:
An interesting episode. And I like what they did for Connor's character. I remember back when this episode first aired. I was so worried all the way until season 5 started that they ruined the series by giving Angel and the gang Wolfram & Hart. But in the end I was surprised how well it actually worked out for it.

Angel: Season 5
The Angel Investigations team is stunned when the senior partners of Wolfram and Hart give them control of the L.A. office. The gang quickly moves in, and although everyone is delighted at the amazing resources they now have at their command, they can't stop wondering what the catch is. But the biggest mystery of all revolves around a small package Angel receives containing an amulet and a handful of dust-which coalesces into a very-much-alive Spike.

My Thoughts:
A pretty good start to the new season... though nothing really mind blowing. It does however give you a good idea of the turn the series has taken. I remember the first time I saw this I wasn't sure how I felt about what they did to Gunn... and to this day years later I am still not sure I am all together happy with it. But it isn't something terrible either.

My Thoughts:
An excellent episode. This is the 100th episode of the series. So you know they do a big one for that. Which also means I only have 10 more episodes of this series to watch now. In this episode we get closure of the Cordelia storyline as well as the Lindsey storyline. And I think they did an excellent job on both... especially with Cordelia. That character really grew since the self-centered character of the early days of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

I remember when this one was first about to air. And remember not expecting much from it as it really did sound like a stupid storyline. But it turned out better then I expected it to. It is of course played for laughs... and it did have a few. I especially liked where Puppet Angel and Spike was fighting... Spike couldn't stop laughing long enough to fight. And I also liked that they brought back Nina, the werewolf woman from a previous episode.
