Hitting it's stride, Juil 19 2004
Just like the show it was spun off from, Angel achieved greatness in it's third season. Beginning with Angel (David Boreanaz) mourning the death of his former lover Buffy, the vampire with a soul finds his old love Darla (Julie Benz) pregnant with his child, while the evil law firm of Wolfram & Hart begins to dismantle everything that Angel and his crew have built around them. Evil seductress Lilah Morgan (Stephanie Romanov) has her own plans as well, and Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter) faces a destiny that she, nor viewers who have watched her since she was on Buffy, would have never expected. As the season comes to a close, the love triangle between Wesley (Alexis Denisof), Fred (Amy Acker), and Gunn (J. August Richards) explodes, and the super cliffhanger season finale has to be seen to be believed. The cast of Angel excels in this season more than ever (I firmly believe that this is the best season of Angel) and the casting of Vincent Kartheiser as Angel's estranged son Connor is perfect. Andy Hallet is plain loveable as the green skinned, karaoke loving demon Lorne, and Boreanaz is at his brooding best. All in all, season 3 of Angel saw the show step out of Buffy the Vampire Slayer's shadow and stand on it's own as one of the best prime time TV dramas on the air.

Angel stands alone in excellence, Juil 2 2004
Angel Season Three was one of the best of the stellar show's five seasons. While it wasn't quite the best (wait for fall 2004 and the release of the season 4 DVD and you'll see what i mean), but it did mark the show's divergence from the shadow of its sister show, Buffy the Vampire Slayer. It also shifted the focus from the more stand-alone episodes of the previous two seasons to the more structured storyline that would continue into the excellent fourth season.The season opens with Heartthrob, an episode that has Angel dealing with the death of Buffy, as well as facing an old friend from his demonic past, who returns as an enemy out for vengeance against Angel for killing his lover. The episode finally allows Angel to put Buffy behind him and move on. The season's main arcs are introduced in the next few episodes, dealing with the worsening of Cordelia's visions, the deepening feelings of Cordelia and Angel for one another, Darla's pregnancy with Angel's son (a birth by two vampires, an unprecedented event), the Wesley-Fred-Gunn love triangle, and the reappearance of the 18th century vampire hunter Daniel Holtz, who makes a pact with the demon Sahjhan to return in the 21st century to avenge his family, who Angel brutally murdered before being re-ensouled. The season is incredibly well-written, showing Angel coming to terms with fatherhood and growing to deeply love his son. It shows Wesley sinking slowly into darkness as he is forced to betray Angel in an effort to do the right thing. It shows Lilah Morgan of Wolfram and Hart finally begin to show glimpses of inner conflict. And it shows Holtz, a potrait of a man consumed by hatred, with nothing left but a thirst for vengeance which he will do anything to satisfy. Although the best part of this season is the main story arc, there are several excellent stand-alone episodes, including That Old Gang of Mine, where Gunn must finally choose between Angel Investigations and his old gang; Billy, where, infected by a demon who Angel freed from hell to save Cordelia, Wesley stalks Fred through the hotel with an axe; and Waiting in the Wings, where Cordelia and Angel fall under a spell and are possessed by the spirits of dead lovers and eventually save a ballerina who has been pulled out of time. Season Three of Angel showed that the show could survive on its own, and since the show has surpassed the show that spawned it with the stellar fourth and fifth seasons. It's a shame this show got cancelled. But this is what the miracle of the digital video disc is for.

PERFECT!!!! THE BEST DAMN SHOW EVER!!!!, Jui 28 2004
what can I say..this season is just perfect...with a new cast member in the opening credits...Amy Acker(Winifred "Fred" Burkle), she adds some spunk to this season....this one is more better then the second season..which was 'aight with lots of good episodes but this one is in my mind much better...not the best season but its a good season...we have Angel(David Boreanaz) and his gang, Fred, Charles Gunn(J. August Richards), Wesley Wyndham-Price(Alexis Denisof) and Cordelia Chase(Charisma Carpenter)...this has more powerful moments then in season 2 and 1..its nail bitting and addictive and an adrenaline rush..it gets your blood pumping right as the opening credits hit..its great..the season starts off as Fred still trys to cope coming back..we get more of Cordelias visions she inherited from Doyle(Glenn Quinn) in season 1....throughout the season they become more and more realistic and the end episode where Skip(David Denham) comes and has Cordelia go UP..that UP in the sky was really cool...this season returns some familiar good and evil faces such as Darla(Julie Benz)..her and Angel have a baby named Connor which Wesley slits its throat...theres the Wolfram and Hart firm still cooking with Lilah Morgan(Stephanie Romanov)...shes hot and deadly and also Gavin Park(Daniel Dae Kim) who was in like one episode in season 2 comes back in and the lovable Lorne(Andy Hallett)...you cant hate this man..hes funny as hell..and also the return of The Groosalugg(Mark Lutz) who finds his princess Cordelia..but he finds out she loves Angel and then leaves at the last episode of the season...we see some new faces..like Holtz(Keith Szarabajka) as the vampire slayer who was chasing Darla and Angelus back in the day..he is mentioned in the episode Darla in season 2, he is revived by the Sahjhan(Jack Conley). then theres Justine(Laurel Holloman) shes like Holtz's woman...and then theres teenaged Connor the destroyer(Vincent Karheiser)..if you havent seen this season...Wesley (Denisof) steals the baby because of some prophecy about Angel killing Baby Connor, Justine (Hollomon) finds Wesley, slits his throat and takes Connor to Holtz. A showdown happens and Holtz goes into a hell dimension with Baby Connor. There is some good drama here with a lot of laughs and smiles..this will satisfy any Angel or Buffy fan..praise this DVD..trust me..you'll have a blast..I know I will
