Query: Angel takes off

It has been said by others, but bears repeating that in this series Angel realises its full potential. The story arcs become bigger and better, which suits a DVD release. The cast have now established themselves and go on to interesting places with their characters. And as with everything from this team of writers (Angel, Buffy, Firefly) the stories leap from genre to genre but always entertain.Who'd have thought Cordelia, "..the Spatula!" and Wesley from their mild Buffy origins could become strong and believable characters. Whilst Holz, Lila and Darla provide dark edges to the show far more interesting than the monster of the week. And Fred becomes one of those Willow-type characters whose scenes never seem to go quite long enough.Like Buffy, this series works very well on DVD and rewards a second (third ..) viewing.
