Thought I'd start this thread early, as the show has been absent for so long, as a reminder that tonight is the beginning of the end of first run ANGEL. Set your VCR, your TiVo, or watch it, but whatever you do...DON'T MISS IT!
The world of shrimp was an inside joke? Well, then I must list my own name among those who did not get it.
Otherwise, favorite moment for me was Angel's reaction to the "Angel's Avengers" line.
I was sort of surprised that Gunn's "family" wasn't Black. Playing out the same scenes that we had seen with Lindsay might have had more impact if the "actors" were different.
Couldn't quite tell if they were ignoring their own continuity, vis Lorne and alcohol.
Altogether I enjoyed myself, and toward the end of the episode found myself looking at the clock hoping there was more time left. That's what I consider a good sign.
(I even came within hailing distance of enjoying "Enterprise", last night. Who'da thunk it?)

I wondered about that, as well -- Obviously, there's nothing preventing Gunn from marrying a very blonde, very white woman (Fred was the latter, after all), but their kid certainly would look different.
What I thought was really creepy was how Lyndsay and Gunn were sent down for their Prometheus moment in the cellar. "I sort of need it now." Brrrr.
