The Angel is an American TV show that has been on the top of the popularity charts for many years since its first telecast on October 5, 1999. The reason for this particular television TV show to gain such prominence is because of the fact that this is a spin-off of another widely popular television series called Buffy-The Vampire slayer. I guess most of them would be aware of this Buffy character more than Angel. The creator of Buffy is the creators of Angel TV show as well i.e. Joss Whedon except for the fact that he was assisted by another co-writer David Greenwalt.
The first season of this show had collections which was much higher than that of the Buffy. (The first season had collections of 4.8 million when compared to the 4.7 million grossed by the fourth season of Buffy). The hullabaloo of this TV show did live up to the expectations to a fair extent, but it could not gain much TRP’s after the first season because most of the screenplay was in a dark atmosphere and also the storyline faded and did not meet the expected level.. The entire series thus concluded on May 19, 2004 after a continuous run for five years.
The theme of Angel TV show will not be something strange or new to those who have been following Buffy because both have similar storylines where the hero counters many battles with demonic spirits and evil humans. The main character here works as a private detective agent while he has to cope with his own self. Actually the gypsies had returned the human soul of our hero as a punishment for his sins and violence against his own kin. Thus, there are many scenes in this Angel TV show where the hero fights his own soul which constantly makes him feel guilt and pain.
As explained in the previous passage, the suspense factor is maintained credibly by the directors and every plot in this television series is quite mature than the previous edition i.e. Buffy. Buffy was more childish whereas Angel depicts the adulthood in a better and arrogant manner. The violence in this series is very gruesome and I consider this as the major reason for its downfall. David Boreanaz as the Angel has done a neat job. The other important characters in this series are Doyle, Chordelia Chase and Wesley-Wyndam Price which are donned by Glenn Quinn, Charisma Carpenter and Alexis Denisof respectively.
