tonight's Angel spoilers

Connor, I've been sitting here, rooting for you all season. It's lonely being one of the few people in fandom who actually likes you, but I have.

Now, I feel betrayed. I really expected better.

...

......

...........C'mon man! You had freakin' Darla come to your rescue! Your ass ought to have been saved, from just the sheer coolness of her. You suck. I feel like my cheers were wasted.


So let me get this sorted out:

Spike has mommy issues.
Buffy has mommy issues.*
Drusilla has mommy issues.*
Connor has mommy issues.
Wood has mommy issues.


Methinks... Joss has mommy issues. Or at least, parental issues. Or Marti does. This season is all about the 'rent issues.

* also have major Daddy issues, but Mommy issues not to be discounted.


That said....

OMG Wesley! There was rolling! Superfluous rolling with guns in hand! It's Agent 009, Wesley W.P., Her Majesty's top secret spy among those damned American demon fighters! Watch as he rolls with sexy grace to come up one knee, pistol raised to hit that special wound that slays the demon!

Now, I feel betrayed. I really expected better.

I can't say I liked Connor, but I was really begining to feel sorry for him. He seemed so sad and lost and lonely.

Now...well, best I can say is that I hope the little maggott gets a nicely redemptive death.

Exactly. I felt bad for him, I wanted him to wiat until the last minute and then realise "This is wrong. I used to violently hate people who did things like this. What the fuck am I doing?"

With such a black & white view of the world growing up, he had the potential to be one of the really good stalwart people on a show surrounded by grey-area people.

Now.. a redemptive death is his only chance.

Yes, I think so.

I've thought about it for a bit, and I'm back to 'poor Connor'. For some reason, he yanks my heart strings. He is just so screwed up, so desperate to be loved, so ripe for manipulation. But it's very unlikely he'll see the season out alive after that. There's just no way they can bring him back.
