The Good; Great performance from mad Wes and lovely scenes between him and Gunn making up
The Bad; In any show featuring time travel it's always a bit of a cheat to kill characters knowing you can just click your fingers and bring them back.
Best line; Marcus; "Curing cancer Mr Pryce?" Wes; "Wouldn't be cost effective. I'm sure we make a lot of money from cancer" Marcus; "True, the patent holder is a client"
Jeez, how did they get away with that? The Breathren want to feed their baby messiah consecrated urine and panda meat. I'm not sure which is worse?
Apocalypses: 5
Angel Clichés Subverting the Hollywood cliché; evil demon Fell Breathren all paternal (and rather camp?) about the coming baby. They also like organic cola.
In disguise; 8
DB/JM get's his shirt off; 19,
Cheap Angel; 8
Fang Gang in bondage: Cordy: 5 Angel: 15 Wes: 8 Gunn; 8 Lorne; 6 Fred; 5 Spike; 6

Total number of Angel Investigations; 5, Angel, Gunn, Lorne, Wes, Spike

Packing heat; Wes; 13 Doyle; 1 Angel; 4 Gunn; 3 Fred; 5
Notches on Fang Gang bedpost: Cordy: 5 ?+Wilson/Hacksaw Beast+Phantom Dennis+Groo+Connor plus possibly the Beast Angel: 6; Buffy, Darla, The Transcending Furies, Eve Wes; 3 definite; Virginia, the bleached blonde and Lilah, 2 possible, Justine, Fred Gunn; 2 Fred and Gwen. Fred; 1 Gunn, 1 possible Wes Groo; 1Cordy Spike; 3-Buffy, Anya, Harmony
Kinky dinky: Gunn suggests they keep Illyria in a leash. Spike refers to 'Dear Penthouse'.
Captain Subtext; Illyria says that adaptation is compromise and Spike teases her about learning and the Internet. Again, we see why humans rule the world and demons don't.
Know the face, different character; 7
Parking garages; 10,
Guantanamo Bay; Suspicion of each other has started to pull AI apart, they don't trust each other anymore?
Buffy characters on Angel; 17 Wetherby, Collins and Smith. Angel, Cordy, Oz, Spike, Buffy, Wes, Faith, Darla, Dru, The Master, Anne, Willow and Harmony. POSSIBLY The First Evil, Andrew.
What the fanficcers thought; . Angel travelling in time used by many fanficcers to rescue characters from all sorts of trouble.
Questions and observations; Wes suggests they keep Illyria as an asset and he's to be proved correct. Jamie Bergman of course is Mrs Boreanaz and a Playboy Playmate. Has she turned up in Bones yet? Anyone else worry that Wes is slowly becoming Illyria's high priest? Marcus suggests that Angel has gone from front runner in the earning stakes to back of the pack, a hint of Angel's history at the WB? When did the 1000 year war begin? Anyone else think that Illyria reminds you of Lady Gaga? Jim Jones was a religious cult leader who led his followers into mass suicide in the South American jungle.
Here Angel get's the idea for the story arc in the last few eps.
Marks out of 10; 7/10 I think the Illyria storyline drags on too long
