Bottom to Top: The Angel Episode Countdown: 020

And we continue the countdown…

I’m not wearing pants.

#25 - Spin The Bottle
[episode 4.6]

The gang turns into their teenage-selves. Fred apparently was a little pot smoker back in the day, we all know what Cordy was, Gunn was a bad ass who wasn’t all that bad (basically like we know him currently), Wes was Head Boy, and Angel spoke with a shitty irish accent. Good stuff.

#24 - The Girl In Question
[episode 5.20]

Angel and Spike go to Italy to do some work, and at the same time go into a jealous rage that Buffy is with some dude named “The Immortal”. You have to have some sort of swagger to pull THAT name off. Meanwhile, Andrew turns into a ladies man, Fox spends more than 42 cents on the production design, and I begin to ponder if the world just ended.

#23 - I Will Remember You
[episode 1.8]

B/A’ers will be like “THIS IS A TRAVESTY!”, let’s face it – this was a good episode, but not even close to the best. We got a really stupid jewel-headed demon, and we got Buffy and Angel smoochies for 44 minutes. Sure the rollercoaster to this was excellent, and I loved those damned oracles, but it just didn’t grab me like the next 22 did.

#22 - In The Dark
[episode 1.3]

Spike comes to town….the first time. Not the holographic time. You know, with the guy who likes to torture people and murder kids. God, I miss that Spike. Anyway, it has Oz too…and it’s the better “Angel human/impervious” episode out of the 2 here.

#21 - Shells
[episode 5.16]

Fred’s gone, and all that’s left is the Blue Meanie. Illyria hath arrived, and you pathetic human weaklings shall bow before her, and then she shall hang your heads on her mantle. She’s so much FUN. Oh yeah, and that rat bastard Knox gets shot and killed by Wes. He had it comin’.

20 to go??! YEEEEE DOGGIES!

Parts -> [17]   [16] [15]   [14] [13]   [12] [11]   [10] [9]   [8] [7]   [6] [5]   [4] [3]   [2] [1]

Spike_And_Angel: The Girl In Question should be in the top 5! You guys are crazy!

Michael: In the Dark and IWRY are SO underrated. Shells is my favourite episode ever, I reckon it should be higher but its so often left out so I’m happen to even see it as #21. Love to see someone else likes GiQ, very fun ep.

Sabi: No f***ing way! “I Will Remember You” should have at LEAST have been in the top 20! I mean COME ON. (not enough room to argue my case) “In the Dark” should be higher, too. Bad-ass Spike when he was actually a bad-ass makes any episode great. And that little monologue thing he did in the teaser was hilarious. Personally, I’d put “The Girl in Question” lower, mainly because the whole Angel-Buffy-Spike love triangle thing never got resolved.

Becca: Oh God, are you nuts? Spin the Bottle is in the top ten for sure. One of the best episodes ever, ever, ever. OK, so I typed that word three times. I agree with I Will Remember You. It’s an OK episode. The Girl in Question was horrible, but funny. Much further down on the list. In the Dark had one of the funniest monologues ever from Spike. Even my kids quote it. I’m just so glad they don’t know what half of it means. And the no pants thing? Too much information!
