Angel Gone

Filed under: Imported

I'll add my reactions to the farewell Angel in this space tomorrow morning. For now, suffice it to say that

The last episode of "Angel," titled "Not Fade Away," is considerably less upbeat than the conclusion to its sister show, "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," which ended last year with the heroine and her friends closing a gateway to hell.
