LOL, yeah I know what you mean. I'm feeling a whole lot better concerning Darla. I miss her terribly and I know there was so much more to do with her and that there are a million problems with this show, but all in all there's more to life than this. There is so much more plus we D/Aers did get the best and the most.

Yeah, really! I don't know why the ANGEL people don't make characters like Kate (who is way more interesting than Fred), Lindsey, and Darla permanent fixtures on the show. They keep adding these new faces and don't even develop them. I want characters that are unpredictable and enigmas even, not sugary sweet or perfect.

I think that one of the reasons the writers came up with the baby is so that they don't have to put Angel with a love interest. The baby will give him the love and understanding he needs in life.

Yeah, and I would love to see more of that!

It really would have been and I think the writers really shot themselves in the foot with this one, but like I said they did this before with Kate and Lindsey. All of the Darla episodes this season rated really well. "Lullaby" got the highest ratings of the season.

Yeah, I also think that the baby will get kidnapped eventually. Poor baby. =( I want to see Guardian Angel Darla come and protect her baby by kicking some Holtz/Shajan butt! =)
