Then she went over to Angel, which I watched periodically. Though every time I tried to get into it, it wouldn't catch my interest.

Angel has a son? I never really watched Angel, and I only started watching Buffy after the show ended...

I'm seconding that 'Angel has a KID' thing.
Incidentally---yeah, that's CN Anime, and see, it's bigger then Anime North, like Poppy said, but it's NOT a primarily anime convention.. its a bit of a mixmash. Personally, I prefer Anime North because it's 9000+ anime geeks in one place, as opposed to 38,000 geeks in general all nerding it up.
However, I've been to both, both with the EWG, as an independent congoer, and with friends. It's a fun convention, and a good way to meet people who share disparate interests. It is more expensive then Anime North, and personally, its a little bit more difficult to get around... its right downtown, so there is that convenience, but the hotels are expensive, quickly booked, and more stringent on rules and what-have-you.
So really, its a mixed bag. I won't be attending this year, actually, since its out of my budget, and to be perfectly frank, CN never really appealed to me. It's very, very commercial. MORESO then Anime North, which is -saying- something.

His name is Connor. I friggen hate that arc. Truth be told, I hated most of Angel. Also: Cordelia was, and remains a fucking bitch. H8

Juliet Landrau! That's who it was. She played Drusilla. Appeared as the same character in Angel. For anyone who knows Ed Wood, she was also in that. I hated most of Angel, too. It was just so... so... spin-off-ish. It just screamed "We don't have much of a plot but we know how to make money off of David Boreanaz". Which is precisely what they did.

No, he was the only attraction I had to the show. It's one of those things you mute and space out to for a while. It occurs to me I may be the only one who does that. Moving on. I adore Drusilla. Her character was amazing.

I only watched angel because his damn son was so hot... it's really the only show I've ever watched willingly that had no plot...well, none worth mentioning...

Connor can just go die somewhere. I hope he did I didn't finish watching the show.

James Marsters... anyone remember Spike? Whyyyy, oh whyyyy, do I love that man so much?
I think he was ALSO at CN one year, for the horrorcon... and haaa, the cast and crew of Serenity and Firefly were there. I flirted with the dude who plays Jayne. It was awesome-possum!
