No fair

Y'know, I've thought the same thing, but this isn't really fair. Boreanaz bulked up considerably between Season One and Season Two and nobody complained; that he looks like a Rat-Packer now could easily be explained by any number of plot devices.

Like, oh, 10000 years in a hell dimension? Or maybe watching his son sleep with his girlfriend?

Anyway, I'm with Treacher on this mostly. A vampire-based show needs some way to explain the actors' aging. Marsters could probably pull off Spike for another few years, but Angel's obviously played. I predict the upcoming series finale will not be pretty for our boy Angelus.

Fair? No. Funny? [crosses fingers]

I vaguely remember Star Trek writing in an "aging chip" to explain Data's neck wattles. I also vaguely remember cracking up.

Angel is a pretty boy and I don't care about him. The funny thing is, James Marsters is in his early 40s and his look hasn't changed since the first time he showed up on Buffy, while Boreanaz is more than ten years younger.
