		Many episodes are humorous while others are deadly serious, and in addition to purely original scripts, producer Huggins drew upon works by writers as disparate as Louis Lamour and Robert Louis Stevenson to give the series its surprising breadth and scope.
		Oddly, only one script was actually written with Jack Kelly in mind during the first three years of the series, since the writers were instructed to picture Garner as the lead regardless of which actor would actually wind up playing it.

	Angel (Series Finale) PopMatters Television Review
		Never assured of continued life from one year to the next, the series spun off from the beloved Buffy, and lingered on the WB even after the mama-show took off to (briefly) grateful UPN.
		More metaphorically and more precisely, the Team confront, finally and forever (until the alleged movie deal is cut), the notorious, perennial dimwittedness of the Powers That Be, that is, the desire for reality-tv-style numbers instead of scripted character arcs or the increasingly strange perils arising from demon-hunting and corporate infighting.
		From its inception, Angel adopted a wily attitude and urban setting (namely, the City of Angels), differentiating itself from its origin-story and giving Angel (David Boreanaz) visibly "adult" plots and concerns (as his slayer girlfriend was, throughout their Sunnydale-based relationship, in high school and college).
