Um, is it just me or is this show losing it's drive? I'm gonna watch out the season, but I'm not really getting into it as much as I used to. Nice little tribute to Glenn Quinn at the end of this week's ep, even if he didn't part with them on the best of terms.
So, they're going to bring back Angelus. Again. I feel like this particular season has been plotted from way back, when they may have been able to hook the Buffy and Angel series together. The similarities between the two major villains is unshakable. But without the link to the first, this one feels like the villain is a second rate knock off. Great, he's gonna blot out the sun, but Buffy's fighting the first fucking evil ever. Maybe that's it. I'd love to see them all being friendly again, too. Nice to have Wes back in the fold, but Gunn hates Wes, Angel hates Wes, Cordy and sometimes Connor, Connor hates Angel, Fred and Gunn are all rocky and Angel's usually bitchy to Lorne. I think I prefer my protagonists to get along. Now, if Angelus returned and the premise of the show became him going around killing people brutally, then it might be interesting.
But what happened to his purpose on Earth being to help people? When was the last time someone came into the office and got help. I think the last guy to try it got possessed by a water-sucking squid thing.
When Season one comes out in February, I get the suspision that it's going to remind everyone how good it was when it started, and how unfocussed it's become.
But that's just my extremely arrogant humble opinion  .

Seriously! I have really grown to like the show. It's improved a lot since its debut - you should give it another chance, Imp.
