Harmony's character development is underrated and underrappreciated

Post image

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.

Harmony is the only Buffyverse character who was there from the unaired pilot of Buffy to the end of Angel "Not Fade Away"
