Product Description:
Season 4 of the "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" spinoff and the second to last season of this detective comedy cum soap opera featuring Buffy's ex-boyfriend as the title role. David Borneanaz plays a brooding vampire beset with guilt who has come to L.A. to atone for two and a half centuries spent killing innocents. With a few close and good-looking friends he opens up Angel Investigations and becomes a vigilante determined to fight the forces of evil which run rampant in the city streets. Season 4 opens with Angel being held captive at the bottom of the ocean by a secretly mutinous Connor while Cordelia has been called to a higher plane by the Powers That Be. After everyone has been reunited within a few episodes a new villain is unleashed: The Beast with whom Angel's alter ego the evil vampire Angelus used to be in cahoots has returned from exile to terrorize L.A. Angel is severed from his "good" side by his friends in order to pump his "bad" side for information about this new nemesis and while Angelus escapes to wreak havoc alongside his old demon friend uber-villain Jasmine arrives to throw the themes of the show into a cosmic light.System Requirements:Running Time 990 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS Rating: NR UPC: 024543233565 Manufacturer No: 2233356

As the fourth season of Angel starts, everything is still as we left it: Angel has been sunk to the bottom of the sea in an iron box by his inexplicable and vindictive son Connor and Cordelia has been summoned to higher realms to await orders. Gunn and Fred are left in the Hyperion Hotel, unsure about what has happened to their friends, and Lilah is working hard to seduce Wesley to the dark side. In the first few episodes, some of this is resolved but it's almost immediately replaced by far worse crises: prophesies of doom accumulate more rapidly even than usual in this wonderfully gloomy show and a horned rock-like beast rains fire on Los Angeles. This last year is Angel's most tightly dramatic season yet--with a story arc of surprising intensity punctuated by the show's usual wit and sexiness.
Season 4 is presented on DVD in Dolby 2.0 Surround Sound and anamorphic widescreen. It comes with insightful, and often hilarious, commentaries on seven of the 22 episodes as well as featurettes--a series overview, profiles of the characters of Jasmine and the Beast, a farewell to the Hyperion Hotel (the characters' base for three seasons), and a discussion of the apocalypse that Angel has to deal with from episode 7 onwards). --Roz Kaveney

I actually liked the plot of season 4. I think it would have been the perfect end (and if you're watching this series for the first time LET IT BE! Season 5 was HORRIBLE! They may have butchered my favorite Angel character (Cordy) in this season, but in season 5 they butcher them all (and the show. It's an entirely different show). Not even Spike could save that season, becasue they butchered his character too...But back to season 4. If you like really dark type shows and movies you'll like this season. It's the darkest of the 4. Angel is an entertaining character as Angelus (they get MUCH more into Angelus in this season then they ever did on Buffy) the only thing is that the Angelus worship in the vampire community is really annoying...Faith comes back and gets to step out of Buffy's shaddow and shine. Willow comes back and the interaction between her and Fred is really funny... The whole season is like the final movie in a series (like Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter for example). The only bad things I have to say is if you are a huge Angel/Cordy fan you'll be broken hearted. It's a great season in my book but I'm warning you it's a sad ending for them.

In its fourth season, Angel gets a little more like a soap opera. The season only has one or two stand alone episodes. Most are about the central arc following the Connor story line. It has more of a horror movie feel with scary music leading up to things jumping out of corners. I think season four is my least favorite of Angel, but still worth it for a fan.

the most dramatic season of all! wow. the relationships that developed actually made me feel sick. just read the summaries of the episodes and you'll see what i mean.
If you are into drama though, this season will suit you.

After almost five years I'm still sad the show ended. Why!? Because of a season like 4. Sure, David was not getting any younger, but two more season would have been great. Well... yep. Cordelia is back... it is a Whedon show, huh? But she do not remember anything. Angel has to deal with the fact his actual romantic interest do not remember him (I Will Remember You much???). More, she end up with someone flesh of his flesh (Angel has to be careful about his children and his woman... he should learn that). The season progress for us to see Angelus save the world... sort of. We have a reformed Faith in action again in a wonderful set of episodes, in which we can know more about the woman under the Slayer, her pain and gratitude to Angel. What is Orpheus? Angel x Angelus has to be one of the best moments in the Bangelverse. He finally has the chance to beat his demon... literally. It is also the beginning of the big mistake made in the curse of the show: the end of Cordelia as we knew. They could handle things differently, found another master for the beast, maybe had left Cordy as a Higher Power, or something, but... Overall, it is an intense season, with a sad end. Angel had again to give up something important to him for the greater good (first Buffy and now his son).
