What we know of Angel season 6 that will never be

[sombrefan]

Teasers I have picked up about season 6 in my travels.




Joss wanted Oz to return to help Nina with her werewolf side.

Willow was to return.

The Fang Gang would be fighting Wolfram and Hart in another dimension at the start of season 6.

And Fred and Illyria would be split in two, so Amy would be playing two characters.

interesting

Joss also said that season 5 was about how if you are in the beast, does it influence you or do you influence it? And season 6 was to be about having the beast die and the result that happens.

Thank you for that salt.

My wound feels much.. better now.

I would have loved to read the slash that came from the Illyria/Fred split. And OZ? Miss him! Willow too. I'm missing everyone today. Everyone's so damn missable.

So write the slash. It's not like Joss took his toys away from us and locked them up.

Yes, but..

that requires work. And knowing how to write a sex scene without sounding like your thirteen and you've never seen a penis before (or boobies as this case may be). Heh.

OMG are you insane?

Did you read my last slash piece?

There wasn't even mention of a dirty word! The erotic description was of Buffy putting her hair up!
SWS

Yes, I am. And damn proud of it!

You've made me change my mind though.

That would have been very interesting.

Wah!

I would have loved to have seen Oz.

Not to mention more Nina.

Living in an alternate dimension doesn't appeal to me at first glance, but maybe they could have made it work.

I've had enough Willow for awhile, thanks. But again, they might have pulled it off. Certainly interaction with Oz after all this time might have been intriguing.

Absent Wesley, I'm not sure where Fred would have fit, but it might have worked.

I have to say, I'm so happy and pleased with this episode as the show's ending, I can live without a sixth season. I agree with Joss that there were more stories that could have been told, but I'm deeply satisfied with the ending we wound up with.

I also like the way the ending of each show compliments the other: "Buffy" empowers all the Potentials, a metaphor for the spread of freedom in all areas of life, with its accompanying risks, while "Angel" shows the overthrow of a repressive authority, with the risks - perhaps even chaos - that follows. Nice parallel.
