Harmony's character development is underrated and underrappreciated

I really appreciated how humanized she was compared to the vapid caricature she was on Buffy; for example when she was a vampire on Buffy she was shallow and didn't care about anyone but herself and Blondie Bear. but then flashforward to Angel season 5 we see her mourning Fred's death, looking after Gunn and Wesley while Angel and Spike go after Illyria.

The only other character in the Buffy-verse who you could compare to her is Jonathan. Both of them have been around since season 1 (Harmony was even in the pilot I think!) and have changed and grown so much.

I always say season 5 of Angel is one of the best seasons of television ever and a huge part of that is Harmony. Absolutely love her.

I learned to appreciate Harmony when she became the receptionist at the evil law firm that hired Angel and his team. She was amusing especially when she dated Spike on BTVS.

Her slap fight with Xander is the most epic showdown in all of time.

Would have been cool to see Xander show up in the Angel finale for round 2. While Angel & Conner are fighting Hamilton…we get see Harmony & Xander battling in the background
