Previous to getting
his own show, Angel had never won a Gold on Buffy, and his previous
best score was for Enemies with 71 lines, and had averaged only 20.86 lines per episode
in season 3 of Buffy. As the star of a new show he quickly improved that personal best,
starting with a Gold and 79 for City Of, and over the
course of the series averaging 73.00 lines per episode, two above his personal
best, three and a half times better than he’s BtVS season 3 score,
and nearly 400 lines higher than his entire BtVS score. He also
picked up 16 Golds, 5 Silver and one bronze medals in total, with the high
point of the season coming for The Prodigal’s 109 lines, and had another 100 line beating
episode with Lonely Hearts(103). Still Angel did have his low
points, taking only a 49 and bronze for the Bachelor Party, still only 8 of Angel’s BtVS episodes were
better than this score.
Cordy also did well out
of the new Show. On Buffy she’d picked up a total of 5 medals (2 of
them were Gold), and although she failed to pick up any Gold medals in season
1, she did pick up 8 Silver medals (I Fall To Pieces(54), Rm V/A View(61), Parting Gifts(68), Somnmbulist(43), Expecting(49), She(39), The Ring(51) and To Shashu In LA(56)) and 5 Bronze
medals, with bronze medal game Eternity(83) providing her
with her highest scoring episode of the season. Her lowest score came with Sanctuary(7) Her average of 41.22 lines/episode is
more than double the 18.00 lines/episode she was getting in BtVS season 3.
Wes was the final
crossover character to become a regular in season 1, and he too vastly improved
on his BtVS season 3 score, where as a reoccurring character he’d picked up just
one bronze medal, and an average of 22.44. He nearly doubled this average to 40.15 lines/episode, and
picked up 2 silvers(I’ve Got You Under My Skin(54) and Sanctuary(45)), and 4 bronze medals.
He’s highest episode, however was Eternity(55) an episode that
he did not even win a medal for. His lowest score of 29 came from She and The Prodigal.
Doyle as a character
only survived 9 episodes, but in that time made a phenomenal impact scoring 3
Golds(In
The Dark(55), The Bachelor Party(68), and Hero(92)), and 5 bronze
medals, and only failed to win a medal once (Sense and
Sensitivity(34)), which was also he’s lowest scoring episode. He’s highest episode
being his death exit episode Hero, with 92 lines. Doyle averaged 54.77 lines/episode, a
phenomenal score. Doyle’s ex-wife Harry Doyle, only appeared in one episode, but the Doyle name is associated
with strong players, and Harry was no different taking silver for the Bachelor Party(51), and reducing Angel to his only Bronze
of the season. In Memory of Glen Quinn 1970-2002, Rest in
Piece.
Kate appeared in a
total of 9 episodes during season 1, and was not only the first reoccurring
character to pick up a medal with the Silver for Lonely Hearts(61), she was also the
first reoccurring character to pick up a Gold medal for Sense and
Sensitivity(75). She picked up a further silver medal for The Prodigal(66). Whilst her
father Trevor Lockley picked up a bronze for his death episode The Prodigal(39).
Rebecca Lowell, is not a name
that is instantly recognizable (actress who drugs Angel), but it should
be for the phenomenal impact the character made in her one and only episode Eternity(124). Not only did
this score make Rebecca the first one-off guest star character in both the Angel and Buffy series to win
Gold, but it is also the highest score any character has got in one
episode on Angel. So surprising is this result that I have re-watched the episode, to
check the transcripts are correct. It ranks Rebecca as the 6th
chattiest character in the first season of Angel. Five other
one-off guest star characters also did well, Harry Doyle won silver, as
mentioned above. Also taking silver was the girl Angel couldn’t save, Tina, for City Of(39). Magic goods
auctioneer Barney won Bronze for Parting Gifts(67), whilst Penn took bronze for Somnambulist(35) and Seth Anderson won bronze for I’ve Got You
Under My Skin(38).
Lindsay proved to be the
outright winner of the Wolfram and Hart Lawyers, as although he
appeared in only 5 season one episodes, he managed to picked up a Gold Medal
for Blind
Date(65), and finished 7th
in the season, whilst his co-conspirators Lilah and Lee both failed to
pick up any medals, and Lee was left at the disadvantage of being killed
off in Blind Date. Finally Holland Manners picked up the final W&H medal with the
bronze medal for Blind Date(38). (Blind Date was a bit of a W&H centric episode
you could say)
From the crossover characters Buffy came out on top
with a Silver for I Will Remember you(65), and a bronze for Sanctuary(44), and Faith picked up a silver
for Five
by Five(44), somewhat surprisingly failing to score a medal in Sanctuary. Spike also surprisingly
failed to get a medal for In The Dark, scoring only a 26, whilst Oz and Darla also failed to
flourish, but Darla did finished the season in a better position than she started it.
Finally future regular Gunn made a strong
impression in his first episode War Zone(56), and picked up a
Silver medal. However he failed to make much Impact in the remaining two
episodes.
