Angel 5.16
Mar. 3rd, 2004 10:09 pmFirst of all... Amy Acker plays a kick-ass villain. They should have let her loose a long time ago. Second.. no new episode next week?! Never thought I'd be eager for an episode of Angel again.. Third.. the Kim Richey song tweaked me out because it was on Alias.
Uhm, I don't know if I have anything intelligent to say. Wes was great again. I love Dark!Wes. The whole Wes/Illyria thing is twisted, but now Wes is responsible for a super-powerful demigod... uh... hrm. She says she will abide by his rules if he helps her. Could be very interesting. Amy Acker as Illyria kicks ass. I said that already, I know, but man. Her talent was seriously wasted as mousey Fred all these years. Love the voice as well. No more mousey whining! Yay!
Gunn.. nothing to say to that boy. Maybe he didn't deserve to be stabbed.. a slap in the face and a broke bone might have been okay. Wait...
Love Harm. She's kind of working out the humanity thing, which she didn't even have when she was alive. I really liked that she considered Fred a friend and wanted to help. Then again, there was a lot of the "oh, our poor Fred!" going around. Meh.
Spike is still a pansy. Make him go away.
The call to Giles was good.. but I thought there was going to be a visit from the other cast? Guess not. It's a little hard to believe that even Giles would tell Angel to fuck off if one of the Old Ones returned to stake a claim. It's just.. well, Giles has his hands full now, I guess.
I wanted Fred back... but now I don't. Let's keep Illyria till the end where she can step up and kick ass and we can all pretend that Illyria stays with Wes because I'm sick and twisted and I'm not a Wes/Illyria shipper.
I want new Angel now!

Date: 2004-03-03 08:18 pm (UTC)Wondering what the papers were that Harm gave to Wes when he was in the hospital bed? Resignation papers? Felt bad for him when he doubled over in tears...
Couldnt help but giggle at Angel's 'were you even listening?' XD And Spike's riff about the baby bottles of Jack was cute.
