Today on Still Dead, we grapple with narrative structure, story themes, an overabundance of damsel-ing, and a whole new world as the team portal-jumps to Pylea in Angel Season 2, episodes 19 and 20, Belonging and Over the Rainbow.

Not on Fire. (S2.19-20)

In Still Dead, story expert Lani Diane Rich and southern fried scholar Dr. Kelly Jones host a new Angel podcast designed specifically for people who love Angel and want to ride through it again quickly, and people who bounce hard off of Angel. We'll designate which episodes are "Watchers" (ones you should actually watch) and which ones are "Not Watchers" (ones you can skip). We'll get you up to date on the goings on for the episodes you can skip, and we'll rave with you over the ones you should watch.

TV & Film

Let’s go to work. On the final episode of Still Dead, we follow Angel and team through the last battles of Power Play and Not Fade Away (S5.21-22).

Why They Fight (S5.21-22)

What is it this time? Upervamps? Demon gods? Devil robots? We follow Illyria through time and dimensions and then follow Angel and Spike through much ridiculousness in Italy in Time Bomb and The Girl in Question (S5. 19-20).

Never Lie to Your Wesley (S5.19-20)

We want to keep Spike as our pet. Kelly and Lani wonder what makes reality real and why Eve didn't have a backup plan better than "handsome man saves me" as they talk about "Underneath" and "Origin." (S5.17-18)

A Fish and Her Bicycle (S5.17-18)

"There’s a hole in the world. Feels like we ought to have known." It's time for heartbreak of the deepest order as we say goodbye to Fred and say hello to Illyria in "A Hole in the World" and "Shells" (S5.15-16).

Fairytale (S5.15-16)

Let’s take out some puppets! We're still not sure why we fight, but we know that Angel makes the best muppet as we forget about Why We Fight (S5.13) and delight in Smile Time (S5.14).

Not on Fire. (S2.19-20)
