since they put Angel/Angelus in a cage, I gotta say the acting and the directing has really tightened up and is pretty masterful.
I always thought that playing Angelus really showed off David Boreanaz' acting skills without resorting to chewing the scenery, which would be really easy to slip into in that role.
Also? Angel never strikes me as sexy. *Angelus* does, which is both funny and scary. But then evil is often sexier than good is.
Wesley just had to chop off his dead ex-girlfriend's head
I think the secret goal of the show was to see just how much pain they could put Wesley in.
