Hey you guys need to watch both seasons of My Adventures with Superman, it's really good. Especially season 2 🤌
Mickey thinks Homeless ppl on skid row are like vampires.😂
react to family man guys...not family guy
“And yet, somehow, I just can’t seem to care.” 🚪
One of the Coldest moments of the Buffyverse
Tim Minear's episodes of Angel are by far at the top of my list for any TV shows I've seen.
Angel locking the cellar door is one of the best Angel moments ever.
Agreed! I only kinda wish Holland had been in it longer, he’s so unnerving 😂 I always think about even the way he says things like “I’m going upstairs now” 😂 the actor deserves all the props
@NikkieTwix yeah but then lynsey and lilah wouldn't have moved up the ladder. I enjoy their characters more.
I’ve always been made they could have had the 3 best endings ever, and wasted the last two on one episode! I would have made an episode set in the past just to frame it with him firing them at the end.
For sure. It's in my top 3 for sure!
@@NikkieTwix He's always creeped me out. Even when he was on Growing Pains.
I love Lindsey's smile, this is him realizing this is what it means for their side to start winning. They finally did it, they got Angel to not care if someone died and it just required their deaths.
I love how much they love Dru, that entrance is iconic imo
Angel locking everyone in the wine cellar is one of my favourite moments ever. As to the morality of it, the thing about Angel is even though he has a soul, the demon is still in there, and it has the potential to lead him to some very dark places indeed. Sometimes maybe people need to go, but he shouldn't necessarily be the one to make that decision. He needs firm moral boundaries. I don't think Cordy, Wes, and Gunn were particularly bothered about some W&H goons getting eaten. It's what that choice will mean for Angel that's the concern.
The series shows you how that having a soul doesn’t mean you’re inherently good or that you’ll always do good things, it was definitely wrong for Angel to do that but they pushed him and then were surprised when what they wanted happened
The reaction to Drusilla was amazing lmaooo
I still remember watching the ending of Reunion when it aired and thinking “Well, that was disturbing”
Angel locking in the Wolfram & Hart lawyers is PEAK Angel!! It's well deserved, and shows Angel having a soul doesn't mean he can't or won't do the wrong thing. I forget if this is the 1st mention of "The Senior Partners", but not the last!
They were able to save the credit for Juliet Landau because she had no speaking part.
“I’d like to test that theory”
As suggested by the first response. I don't think that's true. I think they just do what is appropriate. Buffy in "I will remember you" is in the entire runtime of the episode. Spike in "Darla" is in multiple scenes. So saving their credits until after the episode makes no sense. A single scene appearance at the end of an episode is a very different thing.
Freddie? I agree Fred is a good name for a girl.
Well played, perfectly balanced n clean comment, love it 🤫
In defense of Angel in the second trial - the crosses are generally supposed to repel them at a subconscious level and make them afraid. He probably wasn’t really able to think straight during the trial.
"Darla" episode from previous video. Dru to Darla in 1880 - "Don't be cross. I could be your mummy.."
Angel did indeed went full Batman. "I wont kill you, but I dont need to save you.'
“Best believe that, indeed.”
I feel like Chris, Spidey, and I were thinking the same thing in this moment😅
I love the way the end scene is shot. Wes, Gunn & Cord are sitting in a row (aka a line) when Wes suggests Angel maybe crossing a line. He then fires them and gets up and crosses their 'ethical' line.
Forgot about the Holtz mention this early on
Once Darla is re-born as a Vampire we know there is going to be trouble with those two. Love the bit in Reunion when Holland Manners says 'we won't have to worry about Angel' and he flies through the broken window ( there must be a broken window count in this series, it must be astronomical ). Manners get his comeuppance when Angel just locks the door leaving Darla and Dru to feast on the Wolfram & Hart employees. Angel goes real bad ass at the end when the fires the rest of his team.
This show is amazing!
This ep really shows that Angel is A) an anti-hero. And B) is just starting the hero's journey. Also I don't give a solid F about him killing those lawyers 🤣 They resurrected an evil vampire as a human, tortured her mentally and then essentially rekilled her. They were basically asking for it 🤣Also I love Drusilla in that ep. She's so demented and ready for horny jail. Also I love the cellar scene because if you pay attention to the track being played you can even hear air raid sirens subtly in there. Drusilla loves to play with her food. Juliet Landau's mannerisms are so great.
I think this arc is my favorite part of Angel’s show, and for his character too. Classic BTVS tried to keep Angel and Angelus separate, which was understandable for a teen show where he was the love interest. But it made Angel with a soul too one-dimensional compared to the layers and complexity he was allowed to have here.
These two are top tier episodes ❤❤
The next one is fire too 🔥
Episode 9: W&H shows ZERO hesitation to get right up on Angel's boo-boo and hurt him as much as possible. Episode 10: W&H finds out that was actually a TERRIBLE idea.
Or, Ep.9, W&O F*** Around, Ep. 10, W&H Find Out! Hahaha!
You can certainly argue the lawyers all deserved it. But:
Holland encouraged Lindsey to bring a date. Some of the people in that cellar could have been spouses and significant others who weren't guilty of anything worse than having questionable taste in partners.
The party might well have had catering. I don't know if Wolfram and Hart has in-house, evil catering, so any catering staff who may have been down there would also be dead.
Angel apparently left Holland's wife to bleed to death on the floor after she begged him to come in and save them. We see in the next episode that the paramedics don't arrive until after Lindsey wakes up, which seems to suggest that Lindsey called them, and he and Lilah are the only survivors of the massacre, so Mrs Manners didn't make it. There was no indication that she was complicit - the fact that she invited in two strangers without checking with Holland first strongly suggests that she didn't know about the supernatural, because that's basic vampire safety.
And lastly, if Angel was acting from a purely pragmatic perspective and doing whatever was necessary to remove a great evil from the world, he should have set the building on fire on the way out to a) make sure the lawyers died and b) kill the two very dangerous vampires also in the cellar. The fact that he didn't do this strongly suggests to me that he locked the lawyers in the cellar for _revenge,_ and the good it would do the world for them to be taken out of it was a side effect rather than the main goal.
The Trial was a superb episode of Angel. He does his absolute best to help Darla going through all those tasks but to no avail. Then at the the very end after all he had been through Drusilla returns to turn Darla back. Once Darla is re-born as a Vampire we know there is going to be trouble with those two, and Angel is left devastated. A very tongue in cheek line when Darla says 'just because we had a thing for 150 years doesn't mean you know me'.
4:08 I love how much the Soviet Union moment has stayed with you guys 😂
I think a lot of people draw a distinction between "not saving W&H from the consequences of their own actions" and "actively locking them in with the vampires." It probably didn't actually change the result that much, but it does mean he wasn't just an innocent bystander.
I wish the full team was there for ep 10 but aw well loved it regardless ❤
David was in philly for the eagles game and came into my place of work for a bite tk eat. Really cool guy and wven got a picture with him.
Lot to love about Reunion, but I do like we get to see Dru with her own agenda for a bit and not be tied to Spike or Angelus.
12 yo me lost my absolute shit and mind at Angel locking them in the wine cellar 😂
It does get irritating how they forget stuff at times. "How does a vampire detector work?". You've literally watched episodes where we've seen the demons they use to detect vampires and the heist job they performed that had to avoid them..
It was mildly amusing to watch Rana fail at dancing, but next time just chop off those last 12 Angel-free minutes, okay editor? 😆
So cool Buffy is Hercules and Angel is Xena.
Can't tell if the editor meant to leave the last 15 minutes in lol. Also, Mickey, careful who you accept invite requests from...
They made a point in Reunion to state that some lawyers were bringing plus ones to the tasting. Plus ones. Innocent loved ones. Angel left Innocents to die.
Just saw Suraj and Pat at the Royal Rumble in Indianapolis in the distance 😂😂
Best Rumble ever!
9 Darla's sick.
10 Joss stated this was going to be a lead up all season before realizing Angel was already at that point, emotionally speaking.
Dru Dru Dru Dru Dru
Two of my favorite endings 😮
Omg I love this show this i rewatched it not to long ago
I'm going by Batman logic here. He didn't kill Ra's Al Ghul(Batman Begins), but he didn't save him either. Angel did the same thing to those lawyers.
Omgggggg!!!! Wait you through buffy can’t wait for you to get through angel
"Conquer and divide." So many things wrong there.
By leaving Darla and Dru to kill the evil lawyers Angel also left them to kill whoever they killed between then and him finding them again. They killed like 30 people in one night and he went, "Well 20 of those people were assholes. Better let the mass murdering undead get away."
Who do you thing Wolfram and Hart work for?
I don't know why, but the way Micky said " A door for a door" sent chills down my spine 😮
I called this the birth of The ArchAngel
The punisher version of angel lol
"Freddy?" lol
Did.... they mean to leave the whole last 15 mins on RUclips? LOL It's cute, but I wonder if they knew it was there...
Both are fanastic episodes.
the human is dead, darla or whatever name she had originally, she is back in heaven or hell, a NEW demon is in the body now, the demon that was with angel for 150y was destroyed when angel ended it in season 1 buffy. Ofc the demon, like always, retain ALL memories, including of the memories the human had of the demon memories before
how have i never noticed that was fear factory before
What the hell is going on? Last week Chris was like "Bob rhymes with Dead" and I was also thinking of names that rhyme with Dead. And now this week they mentioned Fred as a possible genderless name.
9:05 Oh how the turns have tabled....
Is anyone else as excited as me for them to get to the shitshow that is season 4? I am weird like that and love the strong feelings it creates.
21:43 dying 😂
44:58 one of the best moments in Angel
It’s Haskill! Sheogorath’s servant in Skyrim!
Poor Angel! He fought so hard in the trials to win a new life for someone else and got nothing. Or did he???
10:15 Well...he did bring her back...there's that.
Luv u fam
angel is SO much better than buffy.
