Production

Origins

Co-producer Greenwalt points out "there's no denying that Angel grew out of Buffy. " Several years before Angel debuted, Joss Whedon developed the concept behind Buffy the Vampire Slayer to invert the Hollywood formula of "the little blonde girl who goes into a dark alley and gets killed in every horror movie. Horror films are Movies that strive to elicit Fear, Horror and terror responses from viewers "^[3] The character Angel was first seen in the first episode and became a regular, appearing in the opening credits during the second and third seasons. Angel is a Fictional character created by Joss Whedon and David Greenwalt for the Television programs Buffy the Vampire " Welcome to the Hellmouth " the first in a two-part series opener is episode 1 of season 1 of the television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer Opening credits, in a television program motion picture or videogame are shown at the beginning and list the most important members of the production According to the fictional universe first established by Slayer, the 'Buffyverse,'^[4] Angel was born in 18th century Ireland.

The Ritual of Restoration is a fictional curse from the TV series Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel. Angel eventually set out on a path of redemption, hoping that he could make up for his past through good deeds. In Buffy's third season finale, the character leaves Sunnydale for L.

Whedon believed that "Angel was the one character who was bigger than life in the same way that Buffy was, a kind of superhero. "^[5] Whedon has compared the series to its parent, "It's a little bit more straightforward action show and a little bit more of a guys' show. "^[6]

While the central concept behind Buffy was "High school as a horror movie" in small-town America,^[7] Co-creators David Greenwalt and Whedon were looking to make Angel into a different "gritty, urban show. The United States of America —commonly referred to as the "^[8] Whedon explains "we wanted a much darker show, darker in tone. It is set in Los Angeles because there are a lot of demons in L. A. and a wealth of stories to be told. We also wanted to take the show a little older and have the characters deal with demons in a much different way. Buffy is always the underdog trying to save the world, but Angel is looking for redemption. It's those two things that creatively make the shows different. "^[9]

Whedon and Greenwalt prepared a six-minute promotional video pitch, often called the "Unaired Angel pilot" for the WB Network. ^[10] Some shots from this short were later used in the opening credits. ^[10]

Early during the life of the series, some effort was made to slightly soften the original concept. For example, scenes were cut from the pilot episode, "City of," in which Angel tasted the blood of a murder victim. ^[11] The episode that was originally written to be the second episode, "Corrupt" was abandoned altogether. Writer David Fury explains, "The Network was shocked. David Fury (born on 5 March 1959 in New York City New York) is an American television Screenwriter and producer, They said 'We can't shoot this. This is way too dark. ' We were able to break a new idea, we had to turn it over in three days. "^[12] Instead the tone was lightened, and the opening episodes established Angel Investigations as an idealistic shoestring operation. Angel Investigations is the name of a fictional detective agency run by the title character Angel previously on the WB television series

A first draft script reveals that Angel was originally intended to include the character Whistler, played by Max Perlich, who had already featured in two Buffy episodes, "Becoming, Part One" and "Part Two".

If they had called I would have probably accepted because it was a great experience and I think Joss is very original and talented. "^[14] Instead, the producers created the Whistler-like character, Doyle. Allen Francis Doyle is a Fictional character created by Joss Whedon for the cult Television series, Angel. Cordelia Chase, also from the original Sunnydale crew, joined Angel and Doyle. Cordelia Chase (born January 1981, in Sunnydale, California,

Main articles: Buffyverse, Los Angeles, and Hyperion Hotel

Much of Angel was shot on location in Los Angeles, California. " Buffyverse " is a term coined by fans of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel to refer to the shared Fictional universe in Los Angeles (lɑˈsændʒələs los ˈaŋxeles in Spanish) is the largest City in the state of California and the American West The Hyperion Hotel was a fictional home base for Angel in the television series Angel during the middle seasons of the show Los Angeles (lɑˈsændʒələs los ˈaŋxeles in Spanish) is the largest City in the state of California and the American West California ( is a US state on the West Coast of the United States, along the Pacific Ocean. ^[30] The show is set in the city of Los Angeles. "Los Angeles" are the first words spoken in the premiere episode,^[31] and the cityscape is the first image seen in the opening credits. Joss Whedon said that "It is set in Los Angeles because there are a lot of demons in L. A. and a wealth of stories to be told. "^[32] Producer Marti Noxon has expanded on this explanation: "Los Angeles was the place that Joss Whedon picked for very specific reasons. Martha Mills Noxon (born 25 August 1964) is a television and film writer perhaps best known for her work as a writer and Executive producer There's a lot of preconceptions about what the place is, but there are a lot of truths. It's a pretty competitive, intense town, where a lot of lonely isolated, and desperate people end up. It's a good place for monsters. "^[33] Many episodes feature references to the city, and the opening episode of the second season features the character Lorne offering this observation of the city:

In this city you better learn to get along. Because L. A. 's got it all: The glamour and the grit, the big breaks and the heartaches, the sweet young lovers and the nasty, ugly, hairy fiends that suck out your brain through your face. It's all part of the big wacky variety show we call Los Angeles.

In the essay collection, Reading Angel: The TV Spin-off With a Soul, Benjamin Jacob writes the essay, "Los Angelus: The City of Angel. Reading Angel The TV Spin-off With a Soul is an academic publication relating to the fictional Buffyverse established by TV series ''Buffy'' and " He explores why Los Angeles in particular should be important to the series. Jacob suggests several explanations. First, the name connection ('City of Angels'). Second, the double-sided nature, the "other side of the stereotypical sunshine city, Beach Boys and Walt Disney", "the place of pain, anonymity, alienation and broken dreams". ^[34] Third American noir was originally a "Los Angelian genre". ^[34] Angel was originally conceived as supernatural noir. Noir had continued investigation of the "dark city, a place of regression and darkness as a counterpoint to the city's promise of progress and civilization" that had begun under William Blake and Charles Dickens. William Blake (28 November 1757 – 12 August 1827 was an English poet, painter, and Printmaker. ^[34]

During the first season, Angel Investigations is based in Angel's apartment. Angel Investigations is the name of a fictional detective agency run by the title character Angel previously on the WB television series Actor Alexis Denisof, who played Wesley Wyndam-Pryce, said "Angel had this dark, foreboding, underground cellar apartment with columns, with this antique furniture all around, and this pokey little office upstairs"^[35] These offices were blown up in the story at the climax of the first season, and Angel Investigations found a new base in the episode, "Are You Now or Have You Ever Been". Alexis Denisof (born February 25 1966, Salisbury Maryland) is an American actor who is known for playing Wesley Wyndam-Pryce in the Wesley Wyndam-Pryce (also spelled Wyndam-Price When Faith goes rogue after accidentally killing a human being the Scooby Gang neglect to inform Wesley and " Are You Now or Have You Ever Been " is episode 2 of season 2 in the television show Angel.

Production designer Stuart Blatt outlined the new base: "An old hotel, something [the writers] could use to evoke the past of Los Angeles and some of Angel's history, something kind of creepy and spooky but not too dark because they didn't want something depressing, it's called the Hyperion Hotel. The Hyperion Hotel was a fictional home base for Angel in the television series Angel during the middle seasons of the show It's based on many hotels in Los Angeles. . . Angel lived in a larger suite in the hotel, like a honeymoon suite, the producers wanted Angel to have enough room to relax and get away from it all, do a little pondering, a little brooding, and a little research. Every once in a while someone will come up to have a little conversation. "^[36] During the final season, the team moves to the evil law firm, Wolfram & Hart.

Format

Angel was initially told in an anthology format, with each episode creating a self-contained story that took place around the title character. ANThology is the first Major label album by Alien Ant Farm released on March 6, 2001 in the USA and March 19 Later episodes began to increasingly contribute to a larger storyline, which was broken down into complex narratives that unfolded over many episodes. A story arc is an extended or continuing storyline in episodic storytelling media such as Television, Comic books Comic strips The most extreme example of this was season four, in which almost every episode contributed to the main storyline. The show blends different genres, including horror, martial arts, romance, melodrama, farce, and comedy. Horror films are Movies that strive to elicit Fear, Horror and terror responses from viewers Martial arts are systems of codified practices and traditions of training for Combat. While most films have some aspect of romance between characters (at least as a Subplot) a romance film can be loosely defined as any Film in which the central Melodrama refers to theatre in which music is used to increase the spectator's emotional response or to suggest character types A farce is a Comedy written for the stage or film which aims to Entertain the audience by means of unlikely extravagant and improbable situations disguise and mistaken The screwball comedy is a subgenre of the comedy Film genre. It has proven to be one of the most popular and enduring film genres

The series' narrative revolves around Angel and his colleagues, collectively making up the detective agency Angel Investigations, who fight against supernatural evils and work to "Help the helpless". The term supernatural or supranatural ( Latin: super, supra "above" + natura "nature" pertains to entities events ^[37] A typical episode contains one or more villains, or supernatural phenomena that is thwarted or defeated, and one or more people in need of help. Though elements and relationships are explored and ongoing subplots are included, the show focuses centrally on Angel and his road to redemption.

The most prominent monsters in the Angel bestiary are vampires, which are based on traditional myths, lore, and literary conventions. The following is a list of Demons vampires human monsters Walking dead, Ghosts beasts and any kind of evil being or supernatural creature seen in the In the fictional world of the Television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel, a vampire is a species of demon Angel and his companions fight a wide variety of demons, as well as ghosts, werewolves, zombies, and ethically unsound humans.

Themes

While Buffy the Vampire Slayer was built around the angst of adolescence, Angel chronicles the different stages of adulthood. The character of Cordelia Chase, who had been the most popular and superficial girl in Sunnydale High on Buffy, develops over the course of the series from an insecure young woman struggling in a daunting real world into an unexpectedly mature woman. Similarly, Wesley, the once uptight and bookish Watcher, becomes a man of quiet confidence and often ruthless action. In the fictional Buffyverse established by the television series Buffy and Angel, a Watcher is a member of a secret organization

In much the same way as Buffy had been both an homage and parody of traditional horror films, Angel gave the same treatment to the classical film noir. Horror films are Movies that strive to elicit Fear, Horror and terror responses from viewers Film noir is a cinematic term used primarily to describe stylish Hollywood crime dramas, particularly those that emphasize moral ambiguity and sexual motivation Producer Kelly Manners said "Angel is a dark show about a man looking for redemption. . . We have an alcoholic metaphor with Angel. Angel is a guy who is one drink away from going back to his evil roots"^[38] He attempts to find redemption through helping the helpless of Los Angeles in a fashion similar to that of noir detectives. The first episode even included a Philip Marlowe-style voiceover. Philip Marlowe is a fictional character created by Raymond Chandler in a series of novels including The Big Sleep and The Long Goodbye The character of Angel filled the role of the reluctant, streetwise detective who has dealings with a variety of underworld characters. In this case, the "underworld" is a literal underworld of demons and supernatural beings. In one instance, Angel is explicitly compared with fictional noir private-detective Marlowe. ^[39] Many traditional noir stories and characters were explored in earlier episodes, including the ditzy but attractive secretary, the cagey but well-informed partner, and clashes with crooked lawyers and meddlesome, too-good-for-their-own-good cops. These were usually given a modern or supernatural twist.

The style and focus of the show changed considerably over its run, and the original noir idea was mostly discarded in favor of more large scale fantasy-themed conflicts. In later seasons, the mythology and stories became increasingly complex; in Season Four, one of the characters on the show itself described the storyline as "a turgid supernatural soap-opera. "^[40] Whereas the show initially dealt with the difficulty of being kind to people on a personal basis, the show ultimately focused on Angel's status as an archetypal Champion for humanity, and explored ideas such as moral ambiguity, the spiritual cost of violence, and the nature of free will. An archetype ( pronounced: /ˈɑːkɪtaɪp/ (Brit or /ˈɑrkɪtaɪp/ (Amer A champion (identical to the French from the late Latin campio) is one who has repeatedly come out first among contestants in challenges (especially the winner of a tournament The question of free will The enduring theme throughout the series was the struggle for redemption. In Theology, salvation can mean three related things being saved from or Liberation from something such as Suffering or the punishment of

Angel explored trust motifs as an increasingly central focus of the show. In the first two seasons, there were sprinklings of deceit and treachery, but in the last three seasons duplicity began to pervade the thematic structure, culminating in the fifth season when almost every episode included some kind of double-cross, trickery, or illusion. An idea presented in the third season was that even prophecy can betray, as they are often deceiving if not plain lies. Prophecy, generally describes the disclosing of Information that is not known to the Prophet by any ordinary means In the fifth season, it is repeatedly emphasized that the characters can trust no one in their new situation. The series is also notable for harsh betrayals within the cast of main characters; such events often having lethal consequences.

Angel depicted the feelings of loneliness, danger, and callousness often attributed to the urban Los Angeles megalopolis. The divisions between the ordered world of the day and the chaotic world of the night have been trademark themes of noir and by depicting a protagonist who literally has no daytime life, the series was able to explore these same themes in more dramatic, metaphorical ways. As the series progressed, the creators were able to explore darker aspects of the characters, particularly Angel, who commits a number of morally questionable actions, and periodically reverts to his evil persona Angelus. Angel is a Fictional character created by Joss Whedon and David Greenwalt for the Television programs Buffy the Vampire

Reception

Critical reviews

During the course of the series, Angel has been subject to both critique and praise. These critiques are often put into the context of it being a spin-off to popular show Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and will at times refer to it being "better than" or "lesser than" its parent show.

""Angel" may improve with age. Heaven knows, it has a built-in "Buffy" fan base. For now, however, there's not enough to sink your teeth into. "
