"Angel" Says "Peace Out"
To continue with what's becoming our once weekly ritual of posting on somebody's series finale, tonight is the last "Angel".
This should really be a bigger deal than it is. When "Buffy" bowed out, it was huge. We took off work, prepared a feast and hunkered down with a box of Kleenex in case anyone bit it (R.I.P. Anya). So naturally, like all "Buffy" fans, we looked to "Angel" for the continuation of the mythology of the Buffiverse. But damn, did they drop the ball. Last season, more people were watching "Angel" than "Buffy," and the numbers only went up in the new season. In return for this increase in viewership, they decided to deliver the worst, lame-duck season they could possibly muster. Between the potty humor (the unfunny kind), and bringing Spike back as a g-g-ghost, they lost us pretty early on.
We'll probably try to watch it, since it is kind of an event, but we haven't seen it in a while due to its major league suckage, so we've got some catching up to do. Presumably there's something threatening to destroy the world, or Angel becomes human, or Cordelia gets out of rehab. Something like that.
If somebody could wake us if anybody from "Buffy" makes a cameo (even though SMG is a confirmed no-go), that'd be great.
Oh, but this is kind of cool, Kevin Williamson on the "Angel" finale
