David Boreanaz' tortured "vampire with a soul" left Sunnydale for L.A. in this "Buffy" spin-off that debuted in 1999. Joining Angel on his crusade against evil were would-be actress Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter), half-human/half-demon mentor Doyle (Glenn Quinn), and stuffy ex-Watcher Wesley (Alexis Denisof).
