Angel, some questions
I am now on season 3. Season 2 had such good moments, and ended so terribly. I actually saw the ending of season 2 before, but not the good episodes from that season, so no wonder I gave up. Maybe JW wanted to balance out the super depressing ending on Buffy with a wacky ending on Angel? Why does Fred’s accent sound so stupid, when Amy Acker is apparently Texan and should be capable of sounding it? (This vaguely excuses David Boreanaz’s terrible “Irish” accent.) What is up with annoying accents in general, DARLA? What happened to Wesley’s hair — is Angel’s bad-hairness spreading? Why is Daniel Dae Kim not featured in every single episode, when he’s much more interesting than Lindsey was and way more attractive?

Hey, I really like Fred’s accent. And I’ve spent a lot of time in Texas (I’m from Louisiana).
Though nothing on this Earth can excuase David Boreanaz’s Irish accent. I think that’s the real reason he didn’t get, er, whatchcallit, shan chu, his promised “ultimate reward” for being a champion.
Glad your’re enjoying Angel. Lord, how I miss me some Josh Whedon.

Yay, Harrison is back! Hurray!
If you like Fred’s accent, well, look, I concede that some people have terrible taste. But I will forgive you as long as you don’t like Darla’s lispy thing. The Irish accent is best ignored — I love Angelus, except his accent pains me.
Is Joss planning another show at some point soon? I assume I’d've heard if so.

As far as I know, he’s doing full-time Wonder Womaning (the movie).
And thanks for the welcome back! (Fred Voice) Love you like pancackes!

I am noticing that her accent is becoming less irritating as the episodes go by, though.
