Lovely review of "You're Welcome" up...

here's a link: http://buffy.nu/article.php3?id_article=3202

The part I really loved not only are the pro-Cordy and pro-Angel comments, but the whole - friends who are in LOVE with one another and the gaelic word for "soulfriends."

The review raises an interesting theory that it could of been Cordy who called to say that she was awake (hence the reason for the call from the hospital at the end).

like i said in another thread,

they should take joss, levin, and the head of fox, tie them to a chair, and make them read all these essays, reviews, and articles, while someone in the background chants,
stu-pid, stu-pid, stu-pid, and slaps them up-side the head.

That is a good review, and again, the thought of what could have been but for...

::sigh:: once more.

Ehhh, the Alphabet Gang (ME, WB, whohaveyou) already are learning they've backed the wrong horses. They'll have to eat that knowledge soon enough. It's just nice to see a little love from somewhere other than us and CC.com. God knows it's been a long time coming.

Sure in some unknown time, many years down the road, the prophecy may (or may not) come to pass. I don’t think this is what Angel needs to hang onto for the long haul. I think it’s his friends that will help him hold on. But I don’t see that coming from them at this time. They are all so caught up in their own jobs and their new toys. Angel needs to take small steps. He needs to be vigilant in remembering his goal - to seek redemption by helping the helpless, not be sitting in an office signing contracts in his blood.
Very true. Very, very true...

And it's about time others began feeling the Cordy love. What took them so long?

Here is another review...

http://cityofangel.com/episodes/index.html

Now while I agree with some of his comments, I don't agree that last week's episode was better than this week's YW IJMHO.

Another thing I noticed too about the episode is that the Shanshu prophecy wasn't mentioned at all in the C/A conversations (other than some off-hand "champion" references). Cordy finally woke Angel up to the fact that it wasn't about the Shanshu and that it was about helping the helpless as a way to Angel's redemption (which IMO was a stupid plotline to base to the first part of the season on anyways), but I think that the lesson will stick IMHO (or at least I hope so), because with Cordy gone and the FG basically broken up, Angel doesn't have anybody to depend on or keep him on track but himself.

Review/interview with JW....

here is a link: http://www.desnews.com/dn/view/0,1249,590040678,00.html

So, they killed off Cordy for another "gotcha" moment eh? I am SO not suprised. And I got to disagree that the series/show was not suffering creatively because it was IJMHO.

I loved the 100th. It's all I can say. I do want Charisma to come back more often and make guest appearances for Season 6, IF there is one. She did say they left the doors open for Cordy! That's why Cordy tells Angel in the 100th, at the end, "I'll be seeing you...".
