Why even power through 1 and not skip to 2?

Tragic Angelus · Post by **Tragic Angelus** » Mon Feb 16, 2009 2:38 pm

Because 1 is only six episodes, so you spend like.. 2 and a half hours only on it. It really introduces everyone, and what the main characters are like. You can pick up on it after awhile in season 2, but seeing as how season 1 is only like, 6 episodes you can get through it easily.

2 and a half hours that could be post whoring! I couldn't make it through 1 episode of season 1.

Yes. Neil Patrick Harris, Alysson Hannigan and Jason Segal are great.

How I Met Your Mother is great. I've caught episodes here and there but I'm hoping to grab the entire series soon enough.

The brunette chick is balls hott.

I still haven't seen the entire final season of Angel yet and I've had the series for about 2 years now. <sigh> Never enough time.

I have the entire series, that special box that came out, haven't watched it yet though. Still haven't seen the first 2 seasons.

I haven't seen all of it either and I used to really like it. I never liked it as much as Buffy though, Buffy was my idol in high school.

Lovely Lady and gentlemen, you MUST see the endings and beginnings!!! Personally, the fourth and fifth seasons of Angel are my favorites, and Season 1 and 2 are pretty good as well. 3 really is my least favorite but it still has it's moments.

I'd watch HIMYM for Neil Patrick Harris.. after his comeback in Harold and Kumar I was sold on him all over again.

Buffy and Angel seemed like two completely different television shows as they both progressed.

Buffy was able to maintain a lightheartedness despite dealing with more adult issues.

Angel, as a series, dealt with darker and darker issues while slowly losing some its lightheartedness but not its humor.

I agree, 4th and 5th seasons of Angel were the absolute best. Since I have yet to see the entire 5th season, I'll say I thought the 4th season was just balls to the walls awesome.

NPH is always cool.

I liked Angel more than buffy, the dark noir-y feel to it.

Better cast, too, I thought.

I also haven't watched the fifth season of Angel yet. I've been putting it off for literally years.

MGM · Post by **MGM** » Tue Feb 17, 2009 4:15 am

Me too. The TV schedule for that season was ABSURD here. Wait, that was the fourth season. I think they changed time at least twice, stopped halfway the season during summer, only to start over again after summer. Las tthing I saw was the put the kid in the water. After that I just gave up.

Gotta love it when TV stations do that. Like for the Sarah Connor Chronicles.

Do they want it to get canned?

Tragic Angelus · Post by **Tragic Angelus** » Tue Feb 17, 2009 4:01 pm

Generally that's how it seems to go. I remember Angel changing nights about 3 times in Season 4.. from Like, Tuesday, to Sunday, to Wednesday where it stayed the remainder of the show.

The second half of Season 5 is phenominal. There's only one episode out of 11 there that I really don't care much for and could ignore, but other than that it's spectacular, and definitely worth watching asap.

I hate how karma tends to align and pile up about 5 different projects on you all due in the same week, within 3 days of each other.. how and why does this happen? Do professors all get together and vote on which weeks to make papers, exams and projects all occur? Or is it just payback for something I haven't realized I did yet?
