  • From the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette via Cinescape:

    David Fury talked to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette and here's what he had to say about Angel:

    Regarding Drusilla, he says that 'Sexy, psychotic vampire Drusilla (Juliet Landau) will return, first on 'Angel' and later on 'Buffy,'".

    Regarding the real reason why Doyle was killed off Angel, "Joss has bandied about, 'I love the idea of putting a character in the main credits as one of the stars of the show and then kill him right off the bat,'" Fury said. "But in the case of Doyle, he didn't want to kill off Doyle. It just became a situation. The work situation became difficult.... It's hard enough to make a television show without the headaches."

    Editors Note: Too bad Glenn Quinn didn't get along with the others cause Doyle was a cool, interesting character!

    From sweetie242: On Angel, what's in store for Darla? Is she a regular?
    Not yet. People on Angel can die a quick death. Don't get your hopes up.
