That villain was pure villain, I'm glad the meek demon finally disposed of him. The Angel crew was just so cool in the situation. Angel vamping to make it easier for Gunn... and the other instances of coolness are already mentioned. <br /><br />But lookit the state of Caritas :( Our sanctuary..Onigirlihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10070327483035350298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-38070485393893957712014-08-31T00:00:30.677-04:002014-08-31T00:00:30.677-04:00I don’t love this episode; I’ve always been uncomf...I don’t love this episode; I’ve always been uncomfortable with Gunn’s background, in which Black seems to equal “street warrior,” and all the sets are covered in graffiti. It seems like an attempt to subvert the Black-gangsta stereotype that nonetheless reifies it. <br /><br />I do love the leather pants moment, though.<br /><br />I also love other tiny moments: in the opening scene with Merle, Cordelia says to Merle “Don’t blame the writing” (about the cards Angel is reading off of). It’s a subtle indication that she wrote the cards, and yet we never get some clumsy sitcom “Oh, but I wrote those!” punchline. Tim Minear just lets the joke simmer. <br />Josie Kafkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17892717530356699008noreply@blogger.com
