When Conner came back from hell how old was he? I thought I remembered that he was 16 but now they are saying he's 18?

Does anyone remember?
 
No, last season Connor was definitely 16. I remember Holtz saying 16 years had passed in Cortox but only a few days here. I think they moved his age to 18 cause that's the legal age of consent and it wouldn't be statutory rape, the whole Cordelia and Connor thing. Like that would make it less gross. But I wouldn't think that would be so important to them, seeing as Buffy slept with Angel when she was 16 and he was like 210. But somehow, that was a totally different situation.
 
That was a different situation, because the actress was older and it looked more natural. But the changing of his age is stupid. Maybe it went like this, he was a few months when he went into Cortox, he was there 16 year and a few months, that would make him 17, then he was on Angel for a few episodes, then a few months summerbrake, then another few episodes Angel, could that make him 18?
 
In response to Martian, I agree that the Angel/Buffy relationship was different. I have nothing against an older woman getting it on with a younger man, aka Cordy and Conner. So to me, if Conner is 16, like Buffy was, that does not bother me. Its the relationship dynamic...Cordy is in love with Conner's dad and acted as his substitute mother....that makes it so gross.

Yeah, I agree, I was thinking about something along those lines as well. But we can let somebody, who wants to do the whole mathematics about it, do it.😛
 
Well the shortest possible amount of time that Connor could have gone from 16 to 18 would be 12 and 1/2 months. If he was just about to turn 17 when he arrived that is. (And I mean like within the next week or so.) But 12 1/2 months has definitely not passed in Angel land. He was only in the water for three months, after all.
