Join ReWatchable as we discuss Angel 5×15, “A Hole in the World,” and Angel 5×16 “Shells.” Superfan: Karen and Maj Newbies: Danielle🍷🍕 and Kristen Fun Facts: Maj is all about Eurovision (with just a teensy bit of hockey talk). Kristen is mourning the loss of April Kepner on Grey’s Anatomy. Danielle🍷🍕 is staying in her apartment for another year, so, YAY! And Karen got to interview a guy from Tremors and she’s not sure if Brittany is talking to her anymore. Angel season 5, episode 15, “A Hole in the World” and episode 16, “Shells”: -Kristen shares her long held spoiler-ific secret. -We all reflect on Fred’s death. -Why was Fred’s death so similar to Cordy’s? -Flashback Fred was so charming and sweet. -That transition was on fire. -Nox is super evil and we didn’t necessarily see him coming. Okay, well, some of us did. -Thoughts on WesiFred -This is a new shade of Dark Wesley. -More thoughts on Wes and Fred’s relationship. -You really don’t want to cross Lorne. -We all talk about why we like either “A Hole in the World” or “Shells” more. -Drogyn does not like being asked questions. -Angel makes a choice that is definitely a VERY tough one. -Fred’s death is a really, really tough pill to swallow. -Illyria’s look: Love it, hate it, annoyed by it? -We have a little criticism for the sexualization of the ladies in the last few episodes. -Did Gunn deserve to get stabbed? -Wes shoots Nox and we’re upset about it, but probably not for the reasons you’d think. -The final scene with Wes and Fred is some incredible acting from Amy Acker. #alltheawards -Lorne blames himself for not hearing Nox’s betrayal when he heard him sing.
