Ugh, this is one of my non-favorites. Kate just never clicked with me, and I never saw chemistry between DB and ER, so I was utterly BORED during all their scenes together, and during Kate's solo scenes.
I did like the A/C/D interactions though, especially at the club. It was cool to see Cordy go out on a case with them so quickly, even if she really only went to promote the business.
I don't have much else to say, since I didn't care all that much for this ep.

Yeah, this wasn't a particular favorite of mine either. It kind of just falls in there between "City Of" and "In the Dark".
I didn't expect Cordy to be a computer pro but, not being able to find ' on the keyboard is a little too ditzy even for me. :)
The A/C/D scenes were really nice, you could see that they were forming a little group. I really wasn't a big Doyle fan when he was on the show, I was upset when the killed him off but that was b/c he just started to grow on me and, I had no idea it was coming.

I know Joss wrote "City Of..", but who wrote "Lonely Hearts"? Was it Minear, since he apparently liked Kate so much?
It's funny, I never really cared before who wrote what, but now it's a big deal.

I looooved the business card scene (A butterfly? Owl? Bird?)
Personaly I've never seen anything but an Angel but I love that this is a running joke. A/C/D were all so cut in their little after fight bonding talk in the club. I'm having serious Doyle missage at the moment. And yes I can watch Angel's reaction to Cordy's appartment over and over and Cordy's reaction to Angel's reaction (It was supposed to go home, hotel, hotel, husband - Hyperion anyone?).
No I've never been a huge Kate fan. I like her as a friend for Angel but not a love interest. It still cracks me up that they met in truely tragic singles bar - and no one's written a fic teasing Kate about the fact she used to frequent that place?
Anyhoo have to work now But I'll be back.

This was an ok ep, socially inept A was quite funny, it's a shame they didn't go with original script, i think that would have made Kate more interesting although I did like her. Question, does anyone know what the song is that's played as the demon goes from body to body?

I'm not sure, but I think the song played is "Touched" by VAST.

I'll have to agree with the rest of you that this episode was OK, but not spectacular.
I didn't really mind Kate. Funny, I never saw her as a love interest, or a potential love interest, for Angel at all. Some time before the season started, I read an interview with DG or Joss or possibly both, that said that Kate would be involved in his life, but not in a romantic way. Maybe that helped me. *shrugs*
Anyway, I kind of liked Kate as a friend for Angel. Every TV private investigator has a contact on the police force, and it seemed to me that Kate was obviously intended to fill that role for Angel. The fact that she didn't trust him, and was obviously going to be freaked when she found out what he was, created the potential for some interesting drama in future episodes.
The A/C/D interactions were fun. It was nice to see Angel start to interact with people, but I wasn't too excited about Doyle's obvious pursuit of Cordelia. It wasn't that I didn't like it, I just never really got into it.

Anyone else have Kate pegged as an obvious Buffy clone? The blond hair. The "likes to fight" attitude. The "gazing longingly at Angel" thing.
After Buffy, it would seem like Kate would be exactly Angel's type. So, if they didn't want her to come across as a potential love interest, they didn't do a very good job of nipping that notion in the bud, did they?

I know. Kate was so obviously introduced as a potential love interest. I think those comments by DG was due to all the backlash they were getting, not just because of Kate, but also Riley.
I can understand Kate's attraction to Angel, but the writer's clearly wanted there to be tension between A/K.
