In the first season of this spin-off from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the vampire Angel (David Boreanaz) has left behind his true love, Buffy, in Sunnydale, Calif. and tries to get a fresh start in Los Angeles. Instead, he finds a whole other breed of bloodsuckers just itching to bring out his dark side. Along the way, he joins forces with an aspiring actress, Cordelia Chase (Charisma Carpenter), who brings her own set of issues to the table.
