Review of Darla

Angel: Darla (2000)
Season 2, Episode 7
9/10
Darla and Angel Through the Years
18 November 2017
Warning: Spoilers
In this episode, the tension between Darla and Angel finally comes to a head as Darla deteriorates more and more as her soul weigh her down. Darla must decide which direction she wants her life to go. Meanwhile Lindsey begins to fall for Darla.

This is another good episode of Angel that further develops the show's plot. But my favorite sequences from this one were actually all the flashback sequences showing us the origins and history of some of the most famous vampires we've seen on this show. I never knew Darla was converted by The Master. I sat up in my seat when I saw him on- screen, so excited I was for his return to the Buffy- verse. Seeing Angel's initial reluctance to leave Darla, even when he had a soul, was very interesting. We really got to see Angel at his loneliest and most fragile.

When we'll see Darla again, I don't know. I really do enjoy the chemistry her and Angel seem to share so hopefully it won't be too long before the two interact again.
