Angel 1x22 REACTION | To Shanshu in L.A.

[@killianlpc]

It's a terrific Finale. Sets up a brilliant S2. What's great about The Buffyverse is seeing old characters introduced back into it which always adds to brilliant plotlines. Love it when Angel says to one handed Lindsey when he tries to burn the scroll 'don't always believe everything that's foretold''. Wesley comes to the rescue with his brilliance in translation, but messes up with Angel's prophecy saying he is going to live! The revelation of Darla being brought back sets up some great episodes for S2. The last five episodes of Angel S1 were superb. Still cannot understand some BTVS fans refusing to watch Angel. The best episodes of this show are more than a match for BTVS, and in many cases surpassed it, and the re-introduction of Darla ( who we must remember was the very first character we ever saw in BTVS S1 E1) drives S2 crazy with some superb episodes.

This was such a great finale. I love the family vibe of the trio. Gunn puts the Iniative guys who need the fancy gadgets and government backing to shame, my guy does it with homemade weapons and got Angel’s respect for his skills quickly. Darla at the end was so unexpected and awesome.

Yassssssssss!!!! You made it!!! Now you know why we got all those backstory flashbacks. ;) Just like Buffy, this show is good at clever foreshadowing. Like that demon said, they brought back someone to bring Angel low and who knows him better than the one who created him? OOooo S2 is quite the dark ride. Hope you ready. :) PS. Cordy is always love.

Darla! Don't know about you, but I'm glad we live in an age when we don't have to wait months for the next season of a show to begin. The anticipation would have driven me crazy.

[@Elisheval]

Although, there was something to say for the anticipation, water cooler talk and having something to look forward to on television.

[@montego2]

@@Elisheval True. I also completely forgot that these days we wait YEARS for the next season of streaming shows, Arcane for example.

I always knew the title of this episode was a play on the movie "to live and die in LA" but it took ages to realize how clever it actually is since shanshu means both to live/die. Angel doesn't have the same big bad in the same way Buffy does but I really like the way the season ends, the AI crew is solidly family and they are intent on their mission
