I loved the finale of Angel. Just like Buffy, The ending of the show showed the essence of the character. With Buffy, You have a girl who's been carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders for years, and that simple question "Yeah, Buffy, What ARE you going to do now" summed up exactly how free she was from that weight. Because this time, it actually meant, what are you going to do now, instead of "how are we going to deal with this mess?"
With Angel, Joss spent five seasons showing us Angel's dedication to the good fight, from giving up the gem of Amarra, to giving up Buffy when he could have had her, to every other decision he made that might have meant some suffering for him but it made the world a better place. And despite all that, he always came out on top. And I think that last few seconds of Angel showed that.
