Most helpful review Angel - Season One

My Best Creation Yet!

By Joss Whedon from Los Angeles , 03 Jan 2007

[Highly rated reviewer]

Don't rent this, buy it! I spent ages creating this just for you all to get it for free.

Best season of Angel by far, its exactly like Buffy in many ways, but also alot darker and adult.

Rent and enjoy!

By buffyrules (345 reviews) from southend on sea , 21 Feb 2011

not buffy, no way near as good as buffy, no way. there are little moments here and there of jossy goodness but all in all, a poor substitute.

Good Start

By shadowwassassin (9 reviews) from Paisley , 08 Feb 2009

Not much happend in season one but it is just the begining of the show as of that I say it was a pretty darn good start still cant wait for angel to get out of his shell as I've seen a few further on episodes and hes less moody but this season is still pretty good just not as action packed as you would think
