I usually do a 10 or 1 star review... and this doesn't deserve 1 star. For a spin-off series it's actually REALLY good. Save Frasier I don't think I've ever seen a spin-off this good.

After MASH? Nah. But it was better than Joey.

But it's still not Buffy, and Buffy had a formula that I absolutely loved.

Angel is sort of WB film noir and.... it works, almost to the point where it might fit in 1940s LA.

It's starts off slow, it wants to be Buffy and it wants to be it's own show, but somewhere around the 2nd Season it finds its footing and runs with it.
