mmm Angel ... This was my best birthday gift ever. Angel is the best TV series ever along with Buffy's. Love the box and I surelly love this Vampire with a soul, well actually there are two Vampires with a soul including blondie bear Spike mmm yummi VvvV
Angelicious This spin-off of Buffy The Vampire Slayer in my opinion is far superior than it's predecessor. They took what was best about Buffy (namely David Boreanaz and Charisma Carpenter) and made a darker, more adult show with it. Angel is to Buffy what Melrose Place was to 90210, in the sense that the story lines are more mature. The richness of the characters and the chemistry that the actors have on screen is what makes this show so wonderful. It also doesn't hurt that Joss and his crack team of writers are witty and know how to throw a curve-ball at you better than any pitcher in Major League Baseball. David Boreanaz is amazing, he brings a vulnerability to Angel that I think a lot of actors would have a hard time finding within themselves. Then as Angelus, he is cruel, callous and deliciously evil. His ability to portray these two sides of Angel with such conviction is what makes him one of my favorite actors on TV. As for the DVD set, it's great. The design is sleek and compact, there is a booklet that contains a mini-guide to each episode, each season is packed separately in a booklet style sleeve and there is a letter from Joss included as well. The extras are great, we get some behind the scenes looks at what it takes to create a great series like Angel. If you are a fan of Angel or if you like well written and well acted TV, I strongly suggest you get this DVD set you won't regret it. Get lost in a lush world filled with Vampires, Demons and other baddies.
Joss Whedon works always worth collecting This spin-off of Joss Whedon's TV success Buffy the Vampire Slayer explores the somewhat darker ruminations of its creators (Joss Whedon and David Greenwalt) but maintains the unique wit and humor found in all of Joss's works. Like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Whedon's other TV series Firefly, this show is about monsters only on the surface; the creators use a fantastical realm to explore something far more meaningful (and often far scarier): the human psyche and soul. The creators use mythical lore to expose what is strong, weak, good, and evil about the human creature. This series offers an exciting plot and characters that you want to watch over and over. It is definitely worth it to own the series.
being lame never felt so good! It was bad enough when I realized just how much I loved Buffy. No one was as anti-Angel as I was. But suddenly, with the aid of a new 8 to 5 career, I found myself caught in the tawdry web of LA-Angel-verse. It's sad when you'll wake up at 4:30 just to catch every second of TNT's 5-7 Angel block. And the worst part was, I didn't mind. So now I have the dvd set, which is awesome. There are a bazillion special features (although not a separate features dvd, like with the Buffy set), and each season premiere has the "previously, on Angel" bit. The only negatives are that the dvd's seem a lot skippier than they should be. And also, why does Angel's big tortured face have to be on each and every season's cover? And, now that I think about it, all of the disc menus play the same theme: the Angel theme. (Yeah, it's got cellos, but hearing it that many times kinda takes away the pretty. But, you know, I guess that's what mute is for.) So I'm an Angel fan. I'm okay with that now. But if anyone asks me if I like Charmed, I'm still gonna throw up in my mouth a little.
Angel is Awesome! I have always been a huge Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan and when Angel left Buffy I was upset. I did not really watch the Angel series until I picked this boxed series and now I realized that I had missed out. It is a great show and there are even a few cross-over episodes with characters from the Buffy television show. This is a great product and I highly recommend buying it! Amazon is great:)
