Season Four

Darkness descends on Los Angeles as Angel faces his most harrowing trials yet. With the city plunged into chaos by the arrival of the Beast and the sun itself blotted out, Angel and his team are pushed to their limits. Cordelia returns with a mysterious new agenda, while Connor’s actions deepen the rift between father and son. In a desperate bid to stop the apocalypse, the team releases Angelus – but even that plan spirals out of control.

When all seems lost, a formidable ally emerges: Faith, the rogue Slayer, is released from prison to help face Angelus and restore balance. As revelations about Cordelia’s true intentions and the sinister Jasmine come to light, the line between friend and foe blurs. Angel must confront his past, his team’s fractures, and a shocking betrayal as the fate of the world hangs in the balance.

Welcome to The Watcher’s Guide, a resource, quite fittingly, back from the dead!

The original website shut down in 2004, following the cancellation of Angel. Now with a new show set in the BuffyVerse eagerly anticipated by fans old and new and featuring the return of Sarah Michelle Gellar as Buffy, it’s time to spruce up The Watcher’s Guide for a new generation.

All the episodes have been added, along with notes, biographies and continuity references. But as always, one question remains… Where Do We Go From Here?
