Here`s a really great review for Angel season 5:
DVD Review Angel Season 5 (by J. MasonIf you’ve been above ground and near a television within the past 10 years you surely have a passing familiarity with Buffy the Vampire Slayer, created by the Aaron Spelling of fantasy TV: Joss Whedon. That said, the last season of the spinoff featuring Buffy’s befanged boyfriend would hardly seem like a purchase for the casually interested; strictly a fans-only affair. This makes the final season all the more impressive: it’s possible to watch the series with minimum knowledge about who Wolfram & Hart are, why Angel’s their new CEO, how Spike returned from the dead or how he even died in the first place, or other geek trivia that prevents this writer (who still enjoys the fights, catty dialogue and melodrama like any other Whedonite) from getting laid. Such accessibility even allows for an open-ended finale in the last episode, should the cast and crew decide to revisit the series someday. The series returns to life on DVD with some interesting extras among the standard interviews and commentaries: a 100th episode celebration (only on network television could a show get cancelled in the same season it reached its milestone); an anatomy of the stunts and fighting the series had perfected; a gag reel; and a featurette on The Tick creator Ben Edlund’s “Smile Time” (the best episode of the season and possibly the series). It makes this box set a must-see in four words: Angel as a Muppet.
So you see: You Have to buy it! ;)
