Mayor Wilkins: This year is too important to let a loose cannon rock the boat. … “Loose cannon,” “rock the boat.” Is that a mixed metaphor? Boats did have cannons. And a loose one would cause it to rock.

After finishing “Angel,” revisiting Wesley’s first appearance in “Buffy” season 3 is a real trip.

That visual gag of Wesley and Giles taking off their glasses and cleaning them with a handkerchief in exactly the same way at the same time was a great touch.

I’ve gone back to watching season 4 of “Angel” because it takes place concurrently with season 7 of “Buffy” and I don’t want to get too far ahead.

I think I’m falling in love with Wesley. This is so weird because he gave me such secondhand embarrassment/cringe when he first showed up.

I don’t know how I feel about Wesley’s relationship with Lilah. The initial impulsive hate sex was hot, but now I’m ambivalent about the Romeo and Juliet – or James Carville and Mary Matalin – situation.

I do know that the scar on Wesley’s neck is unbelievably hot.
