I like Angel compared to TV in general, but compared to Buffy it always seemed unfocused and thematically confused and occasionally kinda misogynist. Until season 5, anyway, which is the only Angel season I like anywhere near as much as Buffy.

I find the "kick his ass" moment very ambiguous — there's definitely some Angel-hatred going on, but it's also a reasonable judgment call.

A great premise that could have been truly fantastic if the writing had been a little… deeper, maybe? There were things that ended up seeming kinda arbitrary (like the DA's initial interference)  that could have been more powerful in a story sense. Okay, she's running for mayor and wants to appear tough on crime… so

Well, the obvious male leader is a sham and the rightful ruler is a young female in disguise… so, yeah.

If that bit with Nick getting tired of sleeping on the couch is NOT gearing up for him to move out and live with Monroe for a while, I will be very disappointed.
