User Reviews

I got two modes with people: bite and avoid

I got two modes with people: bite and avoid - I personally do not think it's nearly as poor as some people make it out to be, but unlike other bashed episodes like 'I Fall To Pieces' and 'The Cautionary Tale', I do find it to be one of my least favorites of the show. I do think that the comedy works, the teaser was hilarious with 'Angel' dancing and 'Wesley' being a complete moron. I also loved the dynamic between the three in this episode, it gave us some really hilarious moments. I also liked the 'Jhiera' storyline, she's a woman that came through a portal and is trying to save other females from her dimension, where they are all enslaved by males. I also liked the heat between 'Jhiera' and 'Angel', I think it worked and I also think those two characters actually had a good chemistry. This episode also reminds me of the television show Sliders, which isn't exactly a good thing but it's not a bad thing either. The problem was that the storyline got dragged a bit and sometimes it felt as if the episode was never going to end, but still, I did quite enjoy it, mostly because of the Wes/Angel/Cordy scenes. ANGEL: The quiet, reserved thing... don't you think that makes me kind of, I don't know, cool? CORDELIA: He was cooler. WESLEY: Good morning! ANGEL: Now I'm depressed. (6.0 out of 10)
