No, just very stylized and pop culture-ey.

But, when they were doing more serious scenes, it was great, and they dropped most of the buffyspeak™ that the post is referring to.

Overwrought at times for sure, particularly during the angel and spike romance scenes, but that's kinda the point of a teen driven supernatural romance action adventure show. No melodrama would be disappointing.

Angel and Spike had a romance story arc? I thought Willow and Tara were the only LGBT characters

Lmao! Imagine the ratings boom if they had.

Mind you, some of their scenes in Angel were pretty damn close

Yeah I remember, so while I believe that I've watched all the episodes at some point in time, I didn't find it completely implausible that there could have been a bare chest scene, maybe under the guise of a demon curse or something.
