A darker, more film noir version of Buffy, Angel lacked the peppy humor that permeated Sunnydale but more than made up for it in its soul-wrenching gravitas, and it elevated Boreanaz to leading-man status, a role he filled out ably and then some. Initially, the stoic vampire was paired with Irish demon Doyle (the late Glenn Quinn) and fellow Sunnydale transplant Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter), but Angel finally found its footing when Doyle was dispatched (giving his powers of precognition to Cordelia) and replaced by Buffy alum Wesley (Alexis Denisof), a fallen watcher who, like his friends, was hoping for a new start in L.A. However, pesky law firm Wolfram and Hart (a front for the demon mafia, as it were) reared its ugly head and discovered Angel's presence, thus setting the stage for a battle of good and evil--and if you're a regular Joss Whedon fan, you know that it's a never-ending war.
This first season features guest appearances by various Buffy characters, including werewolf boy Oz (Seth Green), rogue slayer Faith (Eliza Dushku), deliciously evil vamp Darla (Julie Benz), and Buffy herself (Sarah Michelle Gellar), all of whom helped get the show off and running in style. --Mark Englehart

Customer Reviews of Angel - Season One (Slim Set)
CAME WITH NO DISC 3 AND 2 DISC 2'S I love this series - David Boreanaz is great - I like him even better in Bones now. I bought this set from Amazon almost 3 years ago, but never opened it until recently (They were showing it on TV then). When I finally opened it, I found that Disc 2 was in the set twice and Disc 3 was missing. No doubt too late to fix with Amazon, but I learned a lesson. Open the sets as soon as you get them even if you aren't going to watch them right away!!!
I am in love wid ANGEL!
So, I am not going to write a review since there is so many already. But I would like to praise how great this show is and how much it still needed to grow. Today, Smallville still has ratings and is still on. Angel was rated second behind smallville the utter disappointment for this show to be canceled. I bet it would still have high ratings today. No wonder WB network went down the drain and becomes CW which is much worse. Trust me the show is amazing.
Starts of very rocky, ends very well
The start of this show is, honestly, not that good. After the first episode, I was ready to quit the entire show.

>After that, it gets better with every episode. As entertaining as the Doyle character was, the show gets infinitely better after his departure and the arrival of Wesley Wyndham Pryce (as the show progresses, Alexis Denisof shows time and again, especially with his dark turn near the end of Season 3, that he is the best actor on the entire series).

>The first season episodes are a mixed bag. There are some excellent ones but, overall, this isn't a part of the Angel/Buffy cycle that I would highly recommend except as a reason to get to the far superior second season.
