Wall Banger/Live-Action TV/Angel


 * Season 3 contains a relatively minor but still vexing one that was even Lampshaded towards the end of the series. Why didn't Wesley tell someone, anyone, about It's understandable that he didn't tell, but going to  before his own friends... Bang, bang, bang.
 * How about season 4, when they just take the word of the big evil that ?
 * Angel himself had a good reason; they gave him a choice between . But he accepted the offer unilaterally. Not only did none of the others sign on (Angel signed for all of them), but they were also affected by the memory edit re: Connor until Wesley broke the spell in "Origin". Inconsiderate of Angel, but oh well....
 * While we're on that subject, how about the note that Angel signed for all of them? Wolfram and Hart contracts extend beyond the grave. Really, think about that. Signing on with Wolfram and Hart is LITERALLY selling your soul to the Wolf, Ram, and Hart, and these contracts have never even been suggested to be breakable. By signing on with Wolfram and hart, you will be in their service for ETERNITY, either as their employee, or whatever hell they choose to do with you if you refuse to work for them. Angel had something that he felt was worth signing over for, but signing all his FRIENDS into eternal servitude for the Wolf, Ram, and Hart? Brilliant, Angel. Just f'ing brilliant.
 * Actually, its Fridge Brilliance. If Angel signs for his friends like that then there is a strong possibility they can use that later on to get out of the contracts -- in both real-world contract law and most fictional stories involving deals with the devil, there has to be an intent on your part to form a contract for a contract to actually exist. If somebody else signs for you without your power-of-attorney, your consent, or your knowledge, then they eat the costs and not you. So Angel is trying to take the bullet to spare his friends the consequences, which is entirely in-character for him. Unfortunately for Angel all of his friends decided on their own after the W&H facilities tour that they liked the deal and wanted to stick with it, so this didn't work.
 * "The Girl In Question". Where to start? It makes everything about Buffy again, even though we only ever see a woman in a blonde wig. There are many lazy, horrid attempts at meta-humour. Fred's parents were apparently never told about their daughter's death, which makes the gang look like Jerkasses. And they turned Angelus into a Butt Monkey. For the love of God, why?
 * Shh, that episode never happened.
 * For this troper, the worst episode of the series is arguably "Billy". Apparently there is a primal hatred for women in all men just waiting to be unleashed. Follow that by several examples of Anvilicious attempts to stress female empowerment by showing crazed misogynistic men. Also, the absurd comment that.
 * Angel explained that when he was Angelus (and therefore soulless and evil) he killed for sport or pleasure. You don't need to hate your victim to get off on killing them.
 * Perhaps, but there are still instances of him being angry. Angel himself has been prone to anger at times as well.
 * Anger and Hatred are not the same thing.
