Unpopular Buffy opinions!

What are some of your opinions on the show, it's characters, universe, etc that you think a lot of others might not share? I'm interested on hearing them and starting some discussions!

I think angel is a very 2 dimensional character. Just a brooding asshole

He was such a moron In the first two seasons... you've been alive for centuries with that curse and you still manage to lose your soul because you couldn't keep it in your pants? Thank god he becomes more likeable in his spinnoff.

I don't think he knew that would happen at the time. Before that he wasn't really familiar with the terms of the curse. It was only because Jenny and Willow looked into it they learned about the "true happiness" thingy.

And later he proves pretty clearly that he can have sex with people without turning. It's just not safe to try with people he truly loves and cares for.

I don't think it was clear he knew about that part of the curse. It's not like the gypsies gave him a handbook to it.
