Angel

The show details the ongoing trials of Angel, a vampire whose human soul was restored to him by a Romani curse as a punishment for the murder of one of their own. After more than a century of murder and the torture of innocents, Angel's restored soul torments him with guilt and remorse. Angel moves to Los Angeles, California, after it is clear that his doomed relationship with Buffy, the vampire slayer, cannot continue. For the majority of the show, he works as a private detective in Los Angeles, where he and a variety of associates work to "help the helpless", restoring the faith and saving the souls of those who have lost their way. While regularly struggling with his own vampiric nature, he simultaneously battles against demons and humans aligned with them throughout the story. Angel's archnemesis for most of the series is Wolfram & Hart, a preeminent yet malevolent global law firm that is secretly a front for powerful demonic forces.

The show is considered by many critics as one of the best TV spin-off series of all time, with praise for its darker tone, characters and performances.
