How do you see the rest of the Angel series going if Holtz and Sahjian wasn't there and Connor had remained a baby?
Question If Connor had stayed a baby?

Freaking adorable lol Thats how the rest of the series would have been <3
Angel and the gang raise baby Connor and he gets cuter and cuter and Cangel live happily ever after together and all is right with the world.
Wait what am I talking about this a Joss Whedon show....the baby would have died.

ROFL! I was right there with you, smiling, until you had to go there! But that is so, so true.
Baby Connor is one of the cutest babies ever. And Cordy & Angel raising Connor together is adorable. And Connor being stolen from Angel is one of the most heart-breaking things I've ever seen on screen. At least he came back, but even that is fraught with sadness. They will never have the relationship they could have had, they will never get those stolen years back. Even if they do relate better now (season 5, the IDW comics etc). 🙁
I do think it's hard to have a baby in the context of this type of show...there's always danger around. Although Charmed did it. I'm not a huge Charmed fan and I haven't seen every episode, but the way they integrated the babies wasn't half bad.

I so dislike adult Connor in Seasons 3-4. I think it would have been great if Angel found dependable day care and we only saw him dropping off and picking up Connor at day care, and the occasional phone call: "Sorry, I'm going to late picking up Connor.... I'm saving the world again."

If nothing else, they would have had to change or just drop the whole Jasmine story line, which would, in and of itself, have improved the season. Then, as long as we are conjecturing, keep Charisma from getting pregnant so Joss wouldn't have had any reason to fire her, and you've got the material for a MUCH better season.

*cries* the baby Connor storyline was definitely the most heartbreaking thing ever. It totally traumatized me when I was little. I was like awww cute baby....wait NOOOOO hes gone *cries and shuns Angel for the next 7 years*
But yeah its definitely one of the storylines that always hurts to watch.
I love how Charmed integrated baby Wyatt I LOVE HIM SO MUCH!! He's so cute!! And badass. And he's only a baby lol. Yeah I'm a Charmed fan.

Having not seen much of Angel, I'm going to guess it would have been like Seasons 2, 3, and 5 of Ojamajo Doremi... only darker. They would have to raise this insanely cute baby having no clue how to do it. Connor would make chaos, directly and indirectly- running away for fun, getting kidnapped, knocking important magical items over and breaking them, needing to be fed in the heat of battle, etc. Wesley would commonly be left at home in order to care for him.
I might have watched more of Angel if it was like this, actually... :biggrin3:

Yeah, that would have been awesome!
If there is any character in these shows that I really don't enjoy watching, it's teen Conner.
I loved the adorableness of Angel with a baby. Like times a million!

:jawdrop: What?! What are you waiting for? 😉
I'm gonna guess it would be Lorne, not Wesley, left at home, as he already was left at home with the baby quite a bit in season 3. They need Wesley in the fight.

I don't know, time and motivation I guess
And Wesley and I don't get along. He should stay home instead!
Lol, no one would have been able to watch the show with me cause I would've just gushed over the cute baby 😉 I'm not really a baby person but that is one cute kid!
Aw, I could never have suffered that. It's bad enough that Connor "dies" but a baby...I don't think they could've gotten away with that.

My girlfriend and I met Charisma Carpenter at a Con and she stated how grossed out and put of she was when she found out the Cordelia was going to get it on with Connor. I have to agree. Adult Connor was a bit annoying.

Hahah seriously. I loved baby Connor ugh he was the cutest. I literally screamed/flailed around as he was being kidnapped. My sister isn't too much older than him, so I kept thinking, "What if that was my sister Aekjgrglkegjkr!!!!!" Wesley's lucky that all he got was a little pillow fluff. Hmph!

Good point about Charmed. Now I'm even more pissed about baby Connor's fate. I'm not a huge Charmed fan, mainly because that show tends to be too happy. The finale made me gag. I'm just a sucker for angst.

I often feel like I'm the only one who loves teenage connor. He's one of my favorite characters!

I love him too but an adorable baby or emo teenager? I think most people will choose the adorable baby.
