As requested, an Angel spoiler thread since I've got one new item. This comes from the source who posts the script excerpts, so we know she's got good connections. I'm inclined to believe her.

Anyway, just for imp: She's now saying that when the Angelus story arc comes to pass later in the year, Cordy's going to somehow sacrifice herself to restore Angel's soul. She's not saying at this point whether that means death or not, but she did say pretty recently that she's 99% sure this is Charisma's last year even if the show goes on, and that Cordy will go out in a blaze of glory. So, draw your own conclusions...

Yay! Thanks, Stacey! I'm so glad to even have a little morsel.

A little more morsel for you. She says she's being vague only because the details aren't decided yet. There might be a chance that Charisma will be able to negotiate something for next season where she would be in some episodes but not all of them, and if that happened she might stay on the show. Cordy will definitely be the only thing that can restore Angel's soul, but depending on Charisma's contract that could mean Cordy's death or it could mean she lives but has to sacrifice her 'wings.'

I'm not sure what this wing thing is all about. This is not the first mention I've heard of Cordy having wings when she comes back, but they're almost always mentioned in quotation marks like that. So I'm not quite clear on whether they're actual physical wings, or just a reference to her higher-being status, or what.

If Cordy is an angel, I might have to shoot someone.

Have you noticed that we're the only two here? Hello....anyone else around? Come out come out wherever you are....

Maybe when she gets back, she can control her floatyness and zooms around like the flying nun! While glowing!

Couldn't be any worse than that finale.

I'm here too. I was desperate for something to read, so I decided that I didn't care as much about Angel as I do about Buffy & to go ahead & read these spoilers. So Angelus will be making an appearance, huh?

Si, senor. Mid-season-ish. I think Beth is counting down the days until the leather pants.

As am I, but it's an entirely different set of leather pants that I'm counting down for. Whee, guest stars!
