It had to be asked. I gotta say, junkie torture? Never gonna get old.

I don't know if this is strictly sociopathic, but I love when Wes goes crazy after Fred's death and keeps all those piles of research throughout his office.
Lorne: "Oh, God, don't go in there! That's where he keeps his full-strength crazy."

I liked the whole Justine closet thing, especially when they were on the boat and Wesley threaten to take her bucket away...lol

Awesome thread!
I had to go with when Wesley stabbed the junkie for information on Angelus. That scene was just too awesome for words, and one of my favorite scenes in the entire series. Plus it just showcased perfectly how much Wesley had changed since the first season of Angel.
Also, the fact that Faith was there wondering WTF he was doing was just perfect, as that also showed how she had changed. As not three years earlier she was the one torturing Wesley, and now Wesley had no problems dishing out the pain while she couldn't bring herself to do it. Just an awesome dynamic.

I concur. Wesley was at his best in the final two seasons. It made being frustrated with him from Buffy up to season 2 of Angel worth it to me.

I think I am one of the few that was a fan of Wesley ever since his first appearance on Buffy. He's one of the reasons Season 3 was my favorite seasons of Buffy. Just always felt his introduction and development as this bumbling foil to the Scoobies was just pitch-perfect.

He just didn't work for me, made me frustrated (even though Alexis Denisof is handsome enough to look at on a weekly basis) and it just threw me off. He's one of the big reasons I didn't like season 3. LOL.
Isn't it so funny and amazing how so many people love the same show but for different reasons and purposes? This is a fact that never ceases to intrigue me.

Gah! I knew I'd forget something when I made this poll, and Wesley stabbing Gunn was a biggie. Shame, shame on me.
The Wesley/Faith dynamic in S4 is the best thing the show ever did IMO. They really are the completely dysfunctional, inverse of the Buffy/Giles dynamic. And so much more fun to watch because of it.
To clarify for anyone confused by the second to last option, the full quote is from Parting Gifts: "You! Butcher an innocent girl, will you? I’m going to thrash you to within a inch of your life – AND THEN IM GOING TO TAKE THAT INCH!" I remember thinking "damn Wesley, you so crazy." Of course I had no idea at the time...

I voted for the kneecap thing, but "I'll take away your bucket" is one of my all-time favorite lines, and just behind the kneecap moment is him shooting Knox, followed by Angel's "Were you even listening?"

Everyone, refer to Wyndam's banner also refer to the episode "blood money" where the video tape of Wesley stripping appears. So hilarious!

I'd have to say that when Wesley first appeared on Buffy I thought he was just pretty darn attractive, with his "PIERCE BRONSNEY EYES". I really liked how his character changed after he had gotten shot on Angel and when Angel was being a big brooding baby about Darla and Wesley stood up to him when Angel came into their office to take some book. After that Wesley got more respect as he sort earned a battle scar. One thing though, he tends to do extreme things without getting all the facts. Like with stealing Conner, opening Connors memory box and killing his Dad.I can kind of excuse the last one on the account that his "Dad" was moments from killing Fred.

Is there something you'd like to tell me, Charles?
Awesome.

Wesley shooting the bad doctor then saying. Wesley just knocked Dr. Sparrow out, didn't shoot him. But I agree, that scene was awesome.

I went for "Stabbing and torturing a junkie for information" When Faith says "What are you doing Wes?", I love the way he shouts "SHUT UP!" "ANSWER ME!!!" I also love uber badass gun-toting Wes in "Apocalypse Rising", if two handguns in each hand isn't cool enough, then its time for the sawn-off shotgun!

All of these moments are great! I voted for when he shot the Wolfram & Hart employee in the knee. It was such a cool moment! Really showed that'd he do anything to save Fred.

I've gotta go with when he stabbed Gunn. That was...harsh, man. Harsh? He killed the woman he loved! I would have to go with... when Wesley tried to take over Giles position as Buffy's watcher. Is he crazy? You don't get between a slayer and her watcher! That happened right? Or am I imagining things? I think all the other times, Wesley would have done what anyone would have done. Except when Wesley shot the Wolfram & Hart employee. But the guy worked at Wolfram & Hart for crying out loud. -Ben
