Mess at me giving up after one episode. Should I carry on?

I think I gave up cause I have seen every episode like 2 or 3 times already

Ah I get the urge to watch these again sometmes, I tend to give up...I agree with TS that Angel was fantastic, I didn't actually have any gripes about that at all until the whole...pregnant Cordelia thing which I found really stupid. Also was a bit grossed out by her shagging a kid. I mean, I know he wasn't meant to be a kid (or was he?) but he looked like..13 for ****s sake. Was still a pretty decent show though ignoing these things..did not annoy me nearly as much as some problems with Buffy.

Season 1 is a tough rewatch because it's quite dated at this point... it has that obvious "90's telly" vibe. It's a fun watch for nostalgia but hard to get into. S3 onwards I feel can be unironically rewatched. 2 is good but still very low budget production wise.

He's 18 on returning from Quor'Toth so 19-ish towards the end of S4 . Cordelia as a character was only supposed to be around 23 BUT the actress would have been in her early 30's which makes for a really obvious age difference. She was 27 playing a 17 year old in S1 of Buffy .

And to be fair, it wasn't really Cordelia smooshing little Connor, she was possessed by ... something? I want to say by Jasmine but I don't think it is actually supposed to be the same thing? Possessed by the random evil thing that gave birth to Jasmine, maybe. Just using poor Cordy as a flesh sleeve either way.

Not TS sticking up for one of the vilest queasiest couplings ever to exist on TV that is not the slightly even worse idea of Debra Morgan wanting to shag her brother

Also if hush was the one with those weird creepy clown type men..then keep it. That one game me mini nightmares for WEEKS. They seriously creep me out.

I recently rewatched Angel, and rewatched Buffy a couple of years back, such a good franchise

[Nicky91]

began with its rewatch now, i saw it being on disney+ and i realized that it was a very very long time i haven't seen it

[Mystic Mock]

I'm in the second half of Season 3 so far.

Does anyone know when Xander stops being a prick?

I like Giles and Faith though.

In all honesty he gets worse and in hindsight is borderline abusive to his girlfriend/fiancee in later seasons .

Giles and Faith are good calls for MVP though. Anthony Stewart Head being easily (easily) the best actor on the show and Faith just being, let's face it, the superior Slayer.

Well I'm glad to not be watching those seasons then.

And I agree with your points on Giles & Faith, I wish that more of the cast were like them tbh.

Tbh I can't really watch the show much longer.

I only really like Giles out of the main four, and I know obvious spoilers about Faith & Wesley so there's not much point in me watching the Show further.

I'm glad that there are other people that still enjoy the Show even though it's been over for nearly two decades (which it deserves credit for that) but it is just not for me.

You can ignore the rant that's coming up if you want to.

My issues with three of the main four characters.

Xander - He is an unbelievable douchebag imo, and the Show rarely ever acknowledges it to the level that they should be acknowledging it imo. To me he has to be one of the most unlikable characters that I have ever seen on TV.

Willow - She's just there. I wish I could say more but that's really it where I got to. Her alternate counterpart was far more interesting.

Buffy - In less OTT dramatic episodes I'm fine with Buffy, but whenever it's anything to do with Buffy & Angel (minus the Angelus stuff) or mundane School stuff I'm like no thanks.

For me I liked the Fantasy, Horror & Action stuff to an extent, but **** me with the Show's Drama and even some of the Comedy.
