Still watching "Last Season on Angel..." and Fred/Gunn are already making me sick. And dreading the return of Saint!Cordy.
Cute opening sequence with the gang feast and... erm.. Cody/Angel smooshiness. Connor make a nice remark about Angel's hair, to which Angel responds, "You should be so lucky." Heh. But, of course, it's all a horrid nightmare poor, submerged Angel is having.
Aww, poor Gunn's truck that he sold his soul for. Hahaha, Spanish gang of vampires. It's just.. funny. Fred needs to get a weapon better than a crossbow-- oh, wait, that sleeve thing is cool. Ugh, Fred/Gunn is just not right, especially with Gunn all whipped puppy and Fred trying to be all thug. Goddamn, stop trying to be cool!
Connor.. has been working with them all summer? Don't they know that he drowned Angel? *sigh* These people are idiots. Connor is real good at pretending to be concerned. And Gunn is seriously being a jerk about Wesley.
Oh my god, I'm blind! x_X Wes/Lilah! Arrrgh! This is a very far cry from Queen Margart of seaosn 3 Buffy. He keeps Justine in a closet for frell's sake! Although, after her participation in last season's fiasco, I might be tempted to keep her in a closet, too. Oh, but before you think he's gone totally dark, it's a fair sized closet, apparently with its own light and bars and he's only keeping her so he can drag her out to search for Angel.
Cordy/Angel was amusing for a little bit, but really, must they? What happened to him being Buffy's one true love? Or vice versa, since Spike now also has a soul.
Wesley and Justine have a pretty interesting dynamic. She's about to wack him with a wrench and all he has to do to stop her is tell her he'll take away her bucket. And here's a good bit of consistency: Wesley has a scar on his neck.
Connor's a sneaky bastard. And Gunn's a prejudiced bitch... but it's justified.
That casket Angel's been stuck in.. Connor took the time to make it water proof? o_O
Man, Angel looks like crap. Good thing Wes is slashy enough to let him have a taste.
Lilah has a fresh new job. How.. spiffy. And Connor likes to play Game Boy and eat balogna sandwiches with no tomatoes. Heh.
Ummm... Fred just tazered Connor. Go her...? Nice that Wesley called them to let them know about Angel. Yeah. Someone needs to take the stun gun away from Fred.
Angel's surprisingly spry for a guy who's been under the ocean for three months. And "I need Cordy. Now." Ermm.. right. That was a nice little show, though. Very, "Boy, sit down before Ah beat yo ass!"
Fred: He's lost the mission, bro.
Gunn: Well, we're about to lose this whole place, and you know you can't say bro.
"We all get what we deserve." - Wesley
Fred: And who's Fluffy? Are you fluffy?
Gunn: He called me Fluffy?
Fred: He said make sure-- wait, you don't think he's referring to anything of mine that's fluffy, do you? 'Cause that would just be inappropriate.
Connor: He got what he deserved.
Fred: And how soon until we deserved it?
"So, how was your summer? Mine was fun. Saw some fish. Went mad with hungery. Hallucinated a whole bunch." - Angel to Connor
"What I deserve is open to debate. But understand that there's a difference between wishing vengeance on someone and taking it. So now the question becomes: What do you deserve?" - Angel
"Truth has a better sound to it. Less nasal, you know." - Angel
"What you did to me is unbelievable, Connor. But then, I got stuck in a hell dimension by my girlfriend one time for a hundred years, so three months under the ocean actually gave me perspective. Kind of a M.C. Escher perspective, but I did get time to think... about us, about the world. Nothing in the world is the way it ought to be. It's harsh and cruel. That's why there's us - the champions. Doesn't matter where we come from, what we've done or suffered, or even if we make a difference. We live as though the world were as it should be, to show it what it can be. You're not a part of that yet. I hope you will be. I love you, Connor. Now get out of my house." - Angel
"God, I am so bored." - Cordelia

Not excited about this week's Slut!Bomb from Wisconsin. Gwen Raiden? *sigh* This is all very Rogue-esque. She can't talk to people, she can't touch people, and she has to stay covered up. Hmm.. her power is super-strong static shock. Heh.
"We're okay again?" You try to smother Wesley with a pillow and now you say everything okay because you had time to think? Come on, buddy. Um, but good of Wesley to put together a rag-tag bunch of commandos to fight the good fight. And big yay for pulling the Angel standard disappearing act.
Dinza looks like a gargoyle that's had too much crack. Hmm.. but at least if they ever did a live-action Gargoyles movie, these make-up people would get together with the make-up people who did the "Fallen Angel" episode of Xena.
Axis of Pythia.. very boring. Blah blah blah. Don't care. And hey - Angel showcasing his ridiculous drawing ability.
Dear god please stop talking about Cordy! Leave her in the other dimension. Ugh. So not interested. And, holy crap. As interesting as the idea of Wes/Lilah is.. I've been blinded! Again! Eww... Angel can smell Wes and Lilah all over each other. The Gunn/Fred crap is making me ill.
Yay, Gunn's dead! I mean.. er.. boohoo Gunn's dead. Oh wait, Gwen has a heart and helps save Gunn. How oddly nice of criminal her.
Umm.. much lameness with the ripping open of Angel's shirt, the electro-shock of his heart and the "flashy" CG animation that shows his heart er.. filling I guess and starting to pump. And a kiss! Sheesh.
Did Angel ever love Buffy this much? I don't recall that being the case. Maybe they've all just matured or something. I can't remember who said this, but I read a post saying Buffy/Angel was like the high school couple - not really a permanent, mature relationship. But Angel/Cordy is like the mature adult relationship that people have. *shrug* Maybe.
Mmkay, so I'm wondering if Gwen will be back because Angel just let her go, without so much as a real reprimand. He's getting soft. Erm.. speaking of.. when are we going to address this beating heart issue? It's beating, he's got a soul.. isn't he now just a human with super powers and bad sun allergy?
Cordelia the Higher Being is amusing. For now. The episode's final line: "What are you? Deficient? Get me out of here!"
Angel: Who are you?
Gwen: Who are you?
Angel: I asked you first.
Gwen: What are you, seven?
Angel: You're lying.
Gwen: I'm fibbing. That's lying. Only classier.
"Look, Angel, I know you've been out of the loop for a while, but I'm still evil. I don't do errands unless they're... evil errands." - Lilah

Angel.. being all stalker-like with his son. Heh. And yeah, I do feel for Cordy, with her misty hell and stuff. Doesn't she have powers or something? I'm sorry. This is all very cheesy and gimmicky and Las Vegas?
Okay, please stop butchering the continuity. Angel haning out with Bugsy? Drinks with the Rat Pack and Sammy Davis? Elvis and Priscilla's wedding? The hell... was this during his stint as Dumpster Guy or did Angel decide to take a break from that and hang in Vegas? Um.. not so much.
Yay! Lorne! Singing "It's Not Easy Bing Green!" Whee! Andy Hallet rocks!! Hahahaha! Can I be a Lornette? Hell yes, I would definitely pay to see him sing "Lady Marmalade" live. hehehe
Lorne dissing Angel and Co.? What a dick. Oh, wait, no, I lied. They keep Lorne in a cage so he can predict rich people? Ugh, poor Lorne!
Er.. goddamn Wesley is a kinky, freaky boy. *shudder* Theirs is a strangely functional dysfunctional relationship.
St. Cordy with her powers of observation and desire to help Angel - what the hell were you doing when he was under water for three months?? Argh. Whatever. So.. Cordy's back and she has no memory. Great. Now we get more mopey Angel.
If I hear "theirs is a love of destiny" thrown around one more time, I'm gonna hurl.
Gunn: No one seems to be bothered by the fact that he's a demon.
Fred: They must think it's all makeup - like the blue man group. [to Angel] You don't think the blue man group...
Angel: Only two of them.
"So that's got me wondering: where is that keen sense of perception as far as I'm concerned, huh? What, am I out of the range of your super vampire senses? Angel!" - Cordelia
"This place was so much friendlier when the mob ran it." - Angel
Fred: Frankly, Lorne, we weren't aware you needed rescuing.
Lorne: Weren't aware? I told you!
Fred: When?
Lorne: Why, every time you called, I kept asking about Fluffy!
Fred: Oh. I just thought you were using some show business catch phrase I wasn't hip enough to get. Who's Fluffy?
Lorne: Fluffy! Fluffy, the dog? The dog you don't have? The universally recognized code for 'I'm being held prisoner. Send help.'
"Ah, listen, I have a lot more insightful bon-mots like that, but I've been stuck in the car for five and a half hours and I got to pee. Excuse me." - Lorne

Date: 2002-10-27 03:29 pm (UTC)I've seen him sing "Lady Marmalade" live. With a cold. And it was better. Much, much better.
