Season Three can boast some fine episodes, but the season arc was sacrificed
for several season arcs; missing an episode left you absolutely floundering, as
Big Events happened to all the key characters. Angel, like Buffy, was a
show that was one man's baby; so when Whedon took his eye off the ball, drift
set in. Angel's story at least made sense; Wesley's was a cliffhanger waaay too
far, and the Cordelia story was frankly all over the show. Too many plates to
keep spinning at once. For me, the season was saved by Darla and some strong
links to the past. As for individual episodes, Whedon's "Waiting in the Wings"
was superb, a reminder of the high points Angel could reach on a good day.
