I loathed what they did to Cordelia. I understand that they were caught off guard by her pregnancy and they had to find some way to work around it, but what they did to her was awful.

I never really thought that Fred's arrival meant Cordy had to go. I loved them as a team- Angel, Wes, Cordy, gunn, Fred and Lorne. I didn't hate Connor all that much, just his annoying affair with Cordy. Connor's birth episode was one of the most amazing hours of TV I've ever seen. I still get goosebumps when I remember Darla killing herself so her baby can live.
