...but I am going to start Angel: the Show watch.

[livejournal.com profile] morwen_peredhil's posts finally pushed me to do it. Before that I've only seen one AtS ep (I Will Remember You).

This Fred/Wes vid sort of pushed me over the edge, for who knows what reason:

*points to icon*

Despite the fact that Cordy is the center of my Buffy-verse world(for AtS, not BtVS) the guy in my icon is my Buffy-verse True Love. Though, come to think of it, all my crushing is centric to AtS...

Yup. If you've made it to Gordon's episodes in Supernatural Season 2, I think Gordon is meant to be Gunn gone horribly, horribly wrong(note: Gunn himself is about as much of a straightup good guy through and through as you get to be in the Buffy-verse unless you're Buffy, Tara, or Riley)

Gunn is my favourite. I love him so, so much. SO SO MUCH. Okay, that's enough of that.

In this world, there will never be enough love for Gunn. People are so busy loving Wes, Spike and Angel(not that they aren't deserving) that the dear boy gets overlooked far, far too much.

Wohooo!

I think there are some really wtf? bad storyline lines in the later season but overall I think they had some good episodes. I'm curious how you will react to it.

There is a lot of stuff that seemed like enforced changes from the outside (like they try to introduce a police chick in season 1, but she then disappears rather quickly, stuff like that).

Ehhh, I watch some questionable stuff so the bar is set really low as long as DB remains hot. Shallow, me? Nevah.

Oh, well, don't worry then.

And Wes takes many, many hot pills between BtVS and AtS...

*glee*

So far I am enjoying AtS muchly, although I want more romance than they've given me so far. I've been assured that it's coming, though, so all is well.

Heh. I am sure romance is coming. It will be one more way to add to the ANGST.

If there's one thing I've learned over the past few weeks, it's that romance always leads to angst in the Buffyverse.

FRED AND WESLEYYYY!!! Just get ready for the angst. It sucks that you found that vid before you watched it though, those eps really punch you in the gut if you don't know what's going to happen.

Heh. I knew of it years ago. [livejournal.com profile] fire_snake, used to tell me. I love spoilers :)

I watched the show religiously (and BtVS) when I was in high school and now I'm re-watching it. I have all five seasons and am going through each episode once a week. I'm watching it with someone else, who doesn't understand the word marathon at all so it's taking forever.

It's an interesting show with some really terrible storylines at times but the good episodes are just fantastic. Also the fifth season was so bad at times but there were enough amazing episodes to make it a worthwhile watch from what I remember - I'm still only on season 3 of my re-watch, so I don't remember it that clearly except for the series finale which I will never forget. I'm sure you already know what happened. :P

BTW, I finished Tree of Heaven. I don't know if I'm happy with the ending to be perfectly honest. I'm torn.

I thought ToH ended as well as it could have, all things considered.

Yup, I know what happened with AtS ending. I rarely met a spoiler I didn't like :)

I loved Angel, some of the seasons were superior to the Buffy seasons that ran at the same time, when they were both on the air, in my opinion.

I did end up loving Fred/Wes but I also really loved Wes/Lilah. and I love all the characters on Angel, I love how the ones who had been on Buffy developed and changed like Angel, Cordy and Wes and I loved Fred, Gunn, Lorne and others that began on Angel. and I loved it when Spike was added to the mix because I am a total Angel/Spike(and I also happen to be a Angel/Cordy, Angel/Buffy, Buffy/Spike shipper, Joss' shows were where I first started to multi-ship!)shipper, and I felt he added a lot to that season.

BSG is my first multishipper foray. It's a pleasant place :)

Aw. That's a great vid. I really miss that show.

I can't wait to watch more!

Well, I mean, you gotta get through some episodes before they show up. Wes doesn't appear until mid-season one and Fred pops in at the end of season two. But there's Doyle to watch! *GLEE* I loffed him.

This bring back memories. I started watching it after Buffy because I needed more Angel but lost touch after one or two seasons. Hmm, if there is a proper ending to this show without it being open-ended, I think I might consider watching it again.

I think it does have an open ending...

WESLEY!!! I love ATS so much and I think you'll like Wesley on that show quite a lot :P

Yay. I can't wait!

Oh God...Wes! The whole Wes/Fred thing was so heartwrenching. Wes was always my favorite character because I felt he had the most natural progression and growth as a character. And then, THEN, he finally gets what he wants...Fred...and ugh! I don't want to spoil you since you haven't watched it yet. The last episode, the scene with him and Fred/Ilyria had me sobbing like a baby.

By the end of the show, I just didn't like Angel that much. But Wes happily stepped up and took his place for me.

Wes just looks so awesome. *drools in preparation*
