Actually, I could have done without the Darla pregnancy/baby Connor storyline in general, but I agree that what followed was even more WTF-inducing (except Scruffy!Wesley and Wes/Lilah. Though I'm of course speaking from a shallow place). And good point on when Cordy was ruined beyond repair (it's like her powers of her snark stemmed from the longer, brown hair).

I still have moments I love from the later seasons of Angel, but "what the hell am I watching?" was never far from my mind.
