My Thoughts:
This is another one of my favorite episodes. It has a really good storyline. And I must admit I enjoyed seeing that damned Karaoke Bar getting torn up! I will be glad when that thing is out of the series all together!

My Thoughts:
This is a fun episode. Has a few chuckles in it.  Definitely not a serious episode... and does little to advance the season long story arc. More of a filler episode.... but  a good one.

Original Air Date: 10/22/2001
Fred is resigned to leaving Los Angelese after her parents track her down and make her realize she really contributes nothing to the Angel Investigations team.

Guest Stars:
Gary Grubbs

My Thoughts:
This is one that I enjoyed quite a bit. It has a few laughs in it. And it shows that Fred is getting better and has become part of the team. In this episode... other then the regular cast there is really only 2 other cast members. That being Fred's parents.

A good episode. By this episode I am starting to remember how much I liked the character Fred. I am glad they revisited the storyline of when Angel helped Billy out of the hell declension. Showing the consuquence of his actions.

Another good episode. Though I don't care too much for the Holtz character storyline... it is at least entertaining. It is a shame that this is the last we see of Darla... I will miss seeing Julie Benz on the show for the rest of the marathon.

Angel: Season 3

11. Birthday
Original Air Date: 1/14/2002
Cordelia learns that the visions Doyle passed on to her will eventually kill her unless she agrees to go back in time and choose a different path in life.

Guest Stars:
Patrick Breen
Max Baker
David Denman
Heather Weeks

My Thoughts:
I always liked this episode a lot. I liked seeing the "What If" type episodes of series. I must admit it was strange seeing Cordelia having a vision with no pain what so ever... especially considering Doyle who was half demon still had the pain with them. And I didn't care for the whole floating thing. But other then that... cool episode.

While attending a performance by a renowned ballet company that he also saw back in 1890. Angel realizes that nothing has changed - including the dancers.

Guest Stars:

My Thoughts:
This may be my least favorite episode of Angel. It is definitely my least favorite up to this point. I always found this one to be just slow and boring. Especially the scenes in the Ballet. Until today I never realized that the Prima Ballerina was played by Summer Glau (Firefly & Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles).
