. . . Rumblings from the world of Angel . . .

Taken from various sources...


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The WB has released story information about "Conviction," the season premiere episode of Angel set to air on Wednesday, Oct. 1 at 9 p.m. (ET).
 -
Here's how the network describes the episode:

"Taking over the Los Angeles offices of the supernatural law firm Wolfram and Hart proves to be more challenging than expected for Angel and the gang, especially when their first case involves representing an evil client who threatens to destroy the city. As the gang settles into their new careers at the law firm, they meet new and familiar faces, including the mysterious Eve, who will act as Angel's liaison to Wolfram and Hart's senior partners, and the bubbly vampire Harmony who is Angel's new assistant. Most surprising of all is the arrival of Angel's old nemesis and fellow vampire-with-a-soul, Spike, who makes a miraculous appearance."

The episode was written and directed by Joss Whedon

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

* The First (the big nasty from the last season of Buffy), we learn, did an even shoddier job than expected. The Watchers Council still appears to up and running – or, at least, will be soon.

(Is this maybe why Buffy is in Europe?)

“Angel” casting execs indicate that for 5.7 they’re looking for someone to play Wesley’s dad, Roger Wyndam-Pryce, a representative of the council sent to evaluate whether Wes should be restored to its ranks.

But, wait, what about 5.6?

Script pages for that episode went out to casting agents Friday, and it seems the episode will center around an employee working in the Wolfram & Hart mailroom. He’s a former Mexican wrestler who did in the 1950s what Team Angel does now: ridding us of monsters and other ne’er-do-wells. Seems the wrestler, who went by the name “Number Five” once defeated a demon known as Tezcatcatl, “The Aztec Warrior,” who murdered his four wrestling brothers. Now that the creature has returned 50 years later, Angel needs Number Five’s help.

Ok, I saw the ep last season where the Beast tore thru W&H, and all the way up to where Cordelia gave birth to the big woman with crickets in her eyes or whatever....but missed everything after. How did Angel end up RUNNING W&H? And WHY? And Buffy's in Europe?

Spoilers (natch)

The women was named Jasmine. She claimed to be one of the Powers that Be who had come to Earth to bring paradise. Everyone who saw her, loved her. The spell was broken when someone's blood was mixed with her's (or Cordelia's). Fred was freed, then she freed Angel and the rest of the team. On the run from the entire city, they managed to find a way to another dimension where Angel battled some demon who knew jasmine's real name. Where she comes from names have power. So, revealing her name (which sounded like a gasp in the wind) broke the spell. Connor killed Jasmine, but revealed he was never under the spell but was seeking some sense of happiness.
The next episode, Lilah returned. She said Wolfram and Hart was giving up the LA chapter to Angel. It would be fully staffed and completely under their control. Angel agreed under the condition that Connor be erased from everyone's memories and he be given a new memories of a happy life with a normal family.

oh wow. I missed a LOT in those last episodes! So, Cordelia went comatose and with Conner they disappeared? And Lilah - a ghost version or ?

I miss Buffy-and-Angel-S1, 2 Cordelia. After she kinda became the "voice" of the show, I lost interest and didn't follow it as hard as Buffy. Sad to see she won't be back at all...

Hmm... I'm wondering now, after watching the s2 dvd set - if this is working into that "W&H has big plans for Angel" thing?
