Tonight&#8217;s <i>Angel<\/i> qualifies as such.  It had everything, sarcasm, scary moments, funny moments, and some weird bonding.<br \/>\nFor some reason I enjoy a moody Angel more than a cheerful one.  Probably because of the way he was acting around Cordelia.  He has this genuine love and concern for her and Connor, yet some of his comments tonight were brutal, especially the ending.  And I loved it.  I didn&#8217;t expect him to kick her out per se.<br \/>\nThe episode itself was interesting.  Even though Lilah is a cold-hearted bitch, it&#8217;s obvious she has strong feelings for Wesley.  I liked that he rescued her, and I felt rather bad for her that he left, but only a little.<br \/>\nConnor needs to grow up and sleep with someone his own age.<br \/>\nThe Wesley\/Gunn conflict cracked me up, though I&#8217;m wondering.  Gunn wasn&#8217;t upset that Wes took baby Connor, yet it&#8217;s interesting that he used it as an excuse to cover for the fact that he&#8217;s extremely jealous, even territorial.  Wes on the other hand seems a bit less moody, and I like him this way.  I will miss his &#8216;escapades&#8217; with Lilah though, but not the Fred fetish.<br \/>\nFred was just there, as was Lorne.<br \/>\nThe Big Bad is scary.  I think he&#8217;s one of the scariest big bads out of both seasons, but then again I have yet to see what the First Evil is really like.  The fact that he decimated Wolfram and Hart reminded me of the end of The Watcher&#8217;s Council.  Is this the end of the evil firm, and how do such major denouments to two entities factor into the whole season finales?  Obviously there can be new watchers, and the heads of WH probably don&#8217;t reside at the office.  Why do this on <i>Angel<\/i>?  I guess it seems premature to me considering the show is in its 4th season wheras it may be the last season for <i>Buffy<\/i>.  The seasons have been wonderful though so I&#8217;m not complaining.<br \/>\nI do want to know what Connor&#8217;s connection to the Beast is exactly, and why the Beast took the energy of the demon in the White Room.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There&#8217;s nothing like a good episode that makes you grin like a kid.
