Genre: Television Rating: NR Release Date: 28-NOV-2006 Media Type: DVD Amazon.com: The second season of Angel saw the cult vampire show finally stand on its own from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, assembling all the members of the show's core cast, transferring the action to a fashionably run-down L.A. hotel, and bringing in a few Buffy characters from Angel's history to further establish the moody vampire's own mythology. Moving their Angel Investigations to posher digs, Angel (David Boreanaz), Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter), and Wesley (Alexis Denisof) were soon joined by street fighter (J. August Richards)--and by street fighter, of course we mean demon street fighter. But just as this group was solidifying, up popped Angel's old love, Darla (the fantastic Julie Benz), freshly arrived in L.A. from a hell dimension… just in time to be turned into a vampire again by her old cohort, Drusilla (Juliet Landau), and lure Angel into abandoning his newly formed team. It was the best and worst of times for Angel in its second year, for while the basis was being set for the show's stellar third and fourth seasons, dramatic tension was diluted by Angel's going solo and the necessary (but plot-debilitating) flashbacks to various points in Angel's history. However, just when it seemed everything was about to fly out the window, Angel's creative team threw its characters for a loop--literally--by transporting them to the demon dimension of Pylea, a medieval-style fantasyland populated by monsters and humans alike. It shouldn't have worked, as hokey as it was... but it did, thanks to crack storytelling, sharp dialogue, and the sheer joy the actors unleashed, especially the gifted and fiendishly funny Carpenter. The second half of the season also saw the addition of two of Angel's best characters: the horned Lorne (Andy Hallett), a green demon with a penchant for karaoke, and Fred (Amy Acker), a physicist trapped in Pylea who helped the gang engineer their escape. With these two in tow, Angel began to soar. --Mark Englehart Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Angel season2 slim packAngel - Season Two (Slim Set) I couldn't watch the dvd because disc one,two,three and four were scratched and wouldn't play on my dvd player. Rating:  - Angel is awsomeI love the Angel series. The second season is pretty interesting and I recommend it if you are an Angel fan or David fan. He goes through a period in his life where he starts to questions things and is trying to deal with his past. Pick it up if you can, it is worth it. Rating: - Wonderful! Have you checked out the comic books?I'm a big Buffy and Angel fan, so 5 stars goes without saying. But have you checked out the comic books? Finally season 8 by Joss Whedon! Rating:  - Good storytellingThe second season and new offices for Angel Investigations as they move into an old, abandoned hotel at the end of the second episode. Titled "Are You Now Or Have You Ever Been?", the episode, partily set in the `50's, deals with a demon using people's own paranoia against each other. A subject Rod Serling touched upon with "The Monsters Are Due On Maple Street", an episode of "The Twilight Zone" that "Angel" writer Tim Minear refers to in his commentary of "Are You Now Or Have You Ever Been?"

Such drama mixed in with a little comedy. But not too much because the show would turn silly. But just enough to take the edge off. Cordilia (Charisma Carpenter) is gorgeous. I am almost a middle aged dude with a crush on her. Darla (Julie Benz) is simply gorgeous as well. A real knock out. I will be ordering the third season real soon. Loren ... Read More |
