*This post will contain a major Angel spoiler (surprise ending)*




I admit it, I was skeptical of this episode and the Angel-Cordelia thing, but it was a pretty good ep - glad they extended the tension between them for a bit longer. Loved the Fred-Gunn interaction, and it is so sad for Wesley! I like Fred much better with Gunn though.

Not sure why Joss is doing all the body switching stuff...that's one problem I have with this ep. The other problem I have is the Joker knock-offs as bad guys.

And talk about surprise ending! When the Host first got up to check things out, I was thinking - "They couldn't bring Darla back again, could they?" But whoa! So sad for Angel though 🙁 I didn't really get fromt eh Pylea eps that Cordy and Gru had this big "true love" thing going on, but it works for the story imo.
 
this has to be the best epie i've seen of Angel.. it stands up there with "I will remember you" i love this ep.. i was in tears by the end of it ::crying:: ::crying::
 
This was a great episode. I was so exciteable through the whole ep. I love the whole Wes, Fred, Gunn triangle. I was so happy when Fred and Gunn kissed, but then so sad when I saw Wes. I'm so loving Cordy and Angel's relationship too. I was never into Gru though, so I got mad at the end. I'd never pick Gru over Angel! Angel = Hot... Gru = weird

But anyway, it was a really great ep. I loved Lorne watching Connor.

I was laughing so hard at Cordy falling asleep at the ballet and Gunn just loving it *L*.
 
This episode was a come back to Angel for me. I didn't watch all year (yeah I know I am a shame 🙁 )

I must say that I enjoyed it a lot and got into the story. It was somewhat original and well shot.

I knew the end but so hoped it wouldn't happen! I want Angel and Cordelia!!!!!

I guess the writers will make us wait and wait and wait.
 
I must admit that the episode was pretty good but it wasn't one of my favourites. I'm not an Angel/Cordelia fan so that was kinda getting to me. I just don't think that if they got together it could really go anywhere so really it's be Buffy and Angel all over again and its not as good the second time. But the theater scenes were very funny and I can totaly see myself in Cordelia's place sitting there sleeping definatly something I would do.
 
Maybe it wouldn't work out between the two, who knows but the writers! lol

I would like to see them try it. Though I will still live if they don't 😉
 
AWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!
Poor Wesley!!
Yes, It was a good episode- It takes a lot to make me laugh real hard and cry both in the same 5 minutes.
I am now on my anti-Gunn streak, so ignore any bad comments I may make about him. And my Anti-Fred comments,too...I'm trying so hard not to like them right now.


I'm liking the Angel/Cordelia thing going on right now... I hope Gru leaves real soon...


Ps: I LOVE WESLEY!!
 
Wow I really, really liked this ep. In my opinion Angel has been a great show all season and this was just a really great episode. I loved the Wes/Fred/Gunn love triangle *I'm a sucker for that kinda stuff* but I was hoping that Wes would get the girl ^_^ poor Wesley has some of the worst luck in that kinda stuff. I just wanted to jump in the screen and give him a big ole hug!

I also loved the whole Angel and Cordelia thing but I think it'll be better if the writers pull it out longer and so Gru coming in was a bit of a welcome change. I loved some of Gunn's lines espically how upset he was that Angel got tickets to the opera instead of what he wanted to see. "We've lost the trust" that was just great stuff.
 
yeah I definatly have to agree with Minnie May about the humor which was great but I'm not a fan of love triangles they tend to mess things up and make shows to dramatic for my taste but really thats just me.
 
I loved this episode. Finally we got to see an for real innocent again.
 
The only emotion I felt, other than my sympathy for Wesley, was pure disgust. This is about one of the crappiest (if not, THE crappiest) episodes of Angel I have ever seen. Once is enough, and I'm never going to watch this episodes again. 😛
 
this was a good episode. i felt so bad for wesley! the evil-joker-dudes were pretty corney. but they scared me! lol i totally agree with Minnie-May though. it was a great ep. poor wesley, he has bad luck. i would have really liked it if wes got a girl that was actually nice for once.
*Anya*
 
I appear to be in the minority here, but I didn't like this episode at all. I felt really badly for Wesley, and I am not feeling the whole Gunn/Fred thing. Sorry folks.

I had to turn away when Cordelia and Angel were getting with the groping/kissing/etc. I haven't not watched a scence of Angel for as long as I can remember, even in the one with that stick. (What was the name again? Yeeps!). I do NOT like the whole Angel & Cordelia relationship. There is too much history between LA and Sunnydale for this pair to hook up. I understand the logic on the part of the writers, that some of the new viewing audience need some romance, but what about the rest of us!?

JMHO, please don't send your flying monkies after me!
