Buffy, almost hands down. Maybe because I knew it first... But nah, Buffy has a more solid plot with a more together cast.

Angel, in 3rd and 4th season, the plot and characters kinda scatter and it doesn't have a very solid foundation. It wraps it up near the end of the 4th season and the 5th, and that's part of what I liked about it. They made it out. But I'm sure Angel lost a lot of viewers in that time of ... scattery-ness.

Angel DEFINATELY has it's moments, but Buffy had more time to really get a grasp on what it was.

Buffy was always better. The season plots had more coherence, when Angel changed too much things... especially with the hero! stare
And if we can say that ... Btvs was "realistic" in a way, I talk about the sentimantal and friends part of the plots.

I love them both, but i voted Angel just cos of the plots and stuff like the characters being better, its more grownup than Buffy is. But the way it ended was just horrible crying

I liked Buffy Better..I like the plot they had and how they were'nt just focused on Killing The Vampires.. I like how they Had not just Buffy with Angel, and Buffy and Riley but also Willow and Tara. and Willow and Kennidey. I also like how they showed all the things Buffy and Willow and all the other characters went through... Over all I just like the characters better and the theme and plot. Plus I saw Buffy before I saw Angel.

The plot does seem more solid in Buffy through and through. I started to really enjoy Angel near the end. Not the very laxt season, but close to it.

A lot of people say that Angel had a more grown up or mature feeling. That's kind of true. I mean they didn't censor as much. (Ex: I fall to pieces, the hands go down to rape the victim) But Angel is already 200+ years. Buffy started out 15-16 years old.

They went through growing up on Buffy. Season 6, when Buffy was an adult, THEN they dove into more mature settings. They didn't even cover up attempted rape with a sheet like they did in Angel. They went into such extreme mature subjects in Season 6, Season 5 too (hello single parent-hood. Which continued in S.6 with Buffy getting a job with only a high-school diploma)

And Season 7 the goodness sort of poked it's head out of the ocean and said Hey it's not the end of the world. (Unless the First comes -buddum-CSH!) Sometimes we can work it out. Not always (Xander&Anya), but sometimes it gets better.

Now if that's not mature enough to compete with Angel, then I'll eat a kitten.

WHICH ONE WAS BETTER?
TALK ABOUT IT.
I LIKED BUFFY MUCH BETTER, BUT... I GOTTA SAY, ANGEL'S CHARACTERS HAD MORE GROWTH.
Now I am a ery big Buffy fan and for a while I thought that I was number one because I would wait in line to get the DVD's when they came out and I have them all. I watched them religiously. Then Angel came along and yes at times it was very cheesy but I liked how defined the characters were and they grew alot. It is about equal for me but if I was forced to choose it would be Angel because of the depth of the characters. Buffy I really loved Willow.
