Good for hangovers, but nothing else

Incredibly lame is the best way to describe this show. The jokes are lame, the stories are lame and most of the characters are lame. My guess is that the only reason it has such a high rating is that those that hate it can't even be buggered to vote.

It does have a certain "soap opera" attraction though. You know its utter crap, but you still watch it to see what happens next if only because about once or twice in each season there is an episode that heightens the standard from merely very bad to mediocre, but in contrast to the rest of the show seems very good.

I used to watch it on Sunday mornings, and when you have the aftereffects of a night of binge drinking doing its work on your brain and liver, then this kind of TV is just the thing. (Because engagement of the brain is not required)

But if you are sober (or over the age of 12) then stay as far away as possible from this series.

Literally one of the worst shows i have seen.

The first episode was decent i was like i should give it a chance. But nope i regret doing that, after that there is literally 20+ episodes of just "Soap opera" and Angel is fighting a different bad guy and all these bad guys are one dimensional. The episode with Spike was decent, the 1st ep and this ep are the only "mediocre" ones.

Surprised how come so many people rated this "High" probably because people who seen it dont want to vote bc how much they hate this.

If you want to watch and listen to bad jokes, lame characters, lame stories with no continuity, with repetitive bad guys, this is your show.
