Ok. So.
Something I noticed 'cause I'm a huge geek...

Why is it that Angel can't eat solid food at all (only liquids) and Spike can eat food? Like, he mentions he likes crackers crushed up in his blood "for texture" and he eats buffalo wings and those flower onion things at the Bronze? Anyone else noticed this?
Also...
How come in "Storyteller" Andew mentions something like "why don't vampires show up on film", then he films Spike later on in the episode? Is Spike just special or something? Or can some vampires eat solids and some can't? Is there a rule to this? Or just a glitch in the show?

Any others people noticed?

It kills me when I’m going through the trivia and there’s some blatantly wrong question.

One thing to clear up:

The Progression of Spuffy

It all happens very quickly. Buffy and Spike first KISS in “Once More With Feeling” (they are under a spell) but they actually kiss for REAL in the next episode, “Tabula Rasa”. They then have SEX for real in the following episode, “Smashed”.

“Hello, Vampire. I’m sopposed to be treading on the dark side.” (Spike, “Smashed’)

As far as vamps eating food goes, I think its just down to personal choice. With Spike having a chip and all he probably branched out and tried new things (even if it provided no sustenance), and lets not forget Spike's a bit more Rock and Roll than Angel, so after drinking himself stupid he probably fancies a kebab or something! Though someone more nerdy than I will probably come along and correct me on this.

Angel can eat solid foods.

Andrew says "Hey, why DO vampires show up on video?"

Buffy and Spike first kiss in Something Blue, season five.

Oh my god you are right! The episode where they get married...I totallly forgot that one...

So, why doesn't Angel eat solid food if he can?

MY bad on that Andew quote...
Thanks!

Somewhere, and for the life of me I can't remember or find out where, Angel says that he CAN eat food, it just doesn't sustain him. He also mentions not being able to taste properly so I imagine he just gave up on the whole eating thing. On the other hand, there are several occasions when he DOES eat and he drinks the office coffee all the time at Angel Investigations (mind you, by the sound of it, it would help that he COULDN'T taste that!!)

From "I Will Remember You", after Angel is made human...

Angel: "Why didn't you ever tell me about chocolate and peanut butter?"
Buffy: "Well, I figured if your vamp taste buds couldn't really savor it, then it would only hurt you, you know? "

Spike's reflection is clearly visible in season 7 when he's with Xander stalking the kid with the girl-magnet jacket.

Angel is reflected in the puddle in the alley at the end of his title sequence. It annoys me every time!!

i remember one episode in season 2, when Spike first came to Sunnydale, he yelled at Angel: You were my yoda, man, my sire! well, that's quite wrong, Drusilla sired him.
