I've been rewatching AtS season 4 and I forgot how much I love Gwen's character. Her appearances in 'Ground State' and 'Long Day's Journey' are just awesome.
So what's your verdict: Love her, hate her, or don't care either way?

I had no problems with her character whatsoever, and always thought she was a good addition to the show.

LOVE her.
Long days journey was great and her cameo in it was really cool.
She would have worked well to fill in the lack of female characters in season 5. shame they didnt bring her back.

I love Gwen, but I think they used her just the right amount in S4. She strikes me as a character who could become tiresome kinda quickly. I wish they'd brought her back for an episode or two in S5, tho...  |

Couldn't stand her.
Usually, I'll deal with a character if I don't like em and just become indifferent but in my opinion ...lame.
Her personality was boring and her story seemed like it was right of of X-men.
That outfit...ridiculously tight so much to the point that it was just not sexy in my opinion.
They should have just brought back Bai Ling from the episode "She" from Season 1.
Better actress and more interesting character.

I don't think there's a single actor or actress on either show who I hated more than Bai Ling. "She" would've been a pretty mediocre episode even with a better actress in the part, but for me, her performance alone sends it right to the top of the list of worst "Angel" eps (along with "Shiny Happy People"). She wasn't bad in "The Crow", once upon a time, but everything else I've seen her in makes me think she just isn't a very good actress. But to each their own, I guess. Glad someone likes "She"...   |

Yeah "She" is easily my least favorite AtS episode, along with "The Cautionary Tale of Numero Cinco" (nothing against your name though El Diablo, that's really the only scene I like from the episode  ). They are both just really boring episodes. |

They are both just really boring episodes. Aww, I love "The Cautionary Tale".  (And not because I'm a wrestling fan or anything--I outgrew that when I turned 12. ) I think the guy that plays Number Five is one of the best one-shots in either series, I love Rob Kral's Latin-flavored score, and it's a nice tribute to the Mexican 'luchadores' movies of the '50s. But like I said, to each their own. *shrugs* I actually own the shirt Wes wears in that ep, too (part of the reason behind my screenname)...  |

I had nothing against Number 5, but I just wasn't a fan of the way the episode was designed. The beginning was good, but then it seems like the scene where Number 5 tells Angel about his past takes up half of the episode. It was just really boring.

Ladyparasyte and henz, why don't you like Gwen? Just wondering what specifically irked you?
I loved her for the humor she brought to the episodes she was featured in. And really humor was in short supply for season 4 (besides 'spin the bottle' which is beyond awesome)

Heh...well I did say that...so believe it. J/K. I'm a huge Bai Ling fan and I've never heard anyone bad mouth that episode until this thread. I thought it was an interesting episode. I loved the storyline. I think Bai Ling has ultra charisma. That's one of may fav episodes of the first Season. Oh, well...I've never been with the majority on many things in general. Just add this one to the list.If this is rated as one of the worst Angel episodes then I don't wanna be in the majority Especially with,imop, far worse episodes like "I fall to Pieces,Sense and Sensitivity and Lonely Hearts.. Looking forward to seeing her in this. www.myspace.com/genegenerationGwen...still...just boring...unfunny...and again felt almost like they ripped off Rogue from X-men with the whole she can't touch anyone and has to wear gloves all the time. Just could not like her. |

I thought Gwen was okay. Not a fan of her, and I don't really hate her either. If we would have seen her more I could have made a better judgement.
