I like how an important character establishing fact about Angel made in the first 2 episodes is: Angel's a babe, blondes love him, but for a very old man he has the social skills of a newborn baby. Which like, same. Buffy is relatable in an aspirational be-your-best-self kind of way, Angel is relatable in a much more self-deprecating everyday turmoil kind of way.

New patron here! Once I found out you were reacting to Angel (one of my top 3 favorites of all time), I joined as fast as my phone allowed!
Can’t wait to see your reaction over the seasons!
There was the metaphor comparing between Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Angel. I believe the metaphor was that Buffy was going through high school and college and learning to be an adult, where Angel was being a young adult finding your way in the “real world.”

Every single reactor responds with that level of terror to the first body transfer. Given that the demon was an STD metaphor, it's only right that it be as disgusting as possible.
