He's hunky, he's brooding, he's a do-gooder, and he was Buffy's first boyfriend. Angel, the tortured vampire destined to walk the earth with a soul, got his own series after three seasons on Buffy the Vampire Slayer and did what any new star might do: he moved to L.A. (the City of Angels--get it?) and set up shop. Angel (co-created by Buffy mastermind Joss Whedon) finds the titular vampire (David Boreanaz) as a kind of supernatural private investigator, fighting evil one case at a time and, like his ex-girlfriend, keeping the world from getting destroyed by vengeful demons and such. A darker, more film noir version of Buffy, Angel lacked the peppy humor that permeated Sunnydale but more than made up for it in its soul-wrenching gravitas, and it elevated Boreanaz to leading-man status, a role he filled out ably and then some. Initially, the stoic vampire was paired with Irish demon Doyle (the late Glenn Quinn) and fellow Sunnydale transplant Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter), but Angel finally found its footing when Doyle was dispatched (giving his powers of precognition to Cordelia) and replaced by Buffy alum Wesley (Alexis Denisof), a fallen watcher who, like his friends, was hoping for a new start in L.A. However, pesky law firm Wolfram and Hart (a front for the demon mafia, as it were) reared its ugly head and discovered Angel's presence, thus setting the stage for a battle of good and evil--and if you're a regular Joss Whedon fan, you know that it's a never-ending war. This first season features guest appearances by various Buffy characters, including werewolf boy Oz (Seth Green), rogue slayer Faith (Eliza Dushku), deliciously evil vamp Darla (Julie Benz), and Buffy herself (Sarah Michelle Gellar), all of whom helped get the show off and running in style. --Mark Englehart

 Angel - Season One November 10, 2008
Darker, sleaker and less campy than Buffy, Whedon puts in his creative energies to provide a very entertaining show. Similar to Buffy, Angel has a serialized format, but each episode can be watched and enjoyed as a stand alone. The story of a "person" seeking redemption from the evils of his past life.
Angel review September 1, 2008
I LOVE this series, and the first season is as entertaining as I expected. The slim set makes it easy to store, too.
Great Season/Series! August 31, 2008
As a Buffy Addict, and having some experience with the Angel series though a while ago, I thought I knew what to expect. I was wrong. This season took some adjusting to because you already have some characters like Angel and Cordelia pinned down in your head in a certain way. Also, the show is much much different from Buffy. Nonetheless, I am totally HOOKED! If you love Angel, I recommend purchasing this series because you really get to know him as a character and explore the mystery he leaves for us on Buffy. The show takes a different perspective on fighting evil, redemption and love. Highly recommended - superb product.
