M is for Lindsey McDonald

This month I'm participating in A to Z Challenge, where 100's of bloggers around the world challenge themselves to write every day for the month of April, working their way through the alphabet.  I'm stitching the Buffy The Vampire Slayer alphabet cross stitch pattern (available from my Etsy store).  Each day I will share that letter's stitching, as well as a bit about the relevant character.

M is for Lindsey McDonald

Lindsey is another of our Angel-only characters.  I’ve summarised his page on Buffy Wiki for you, as my memories of him are rather vague: Lindsey was a lawyer who worked for the firm Wolfram & Hart, the ongoing ‘evil’ of Angel. Lindsey legally represented vampires and demons, as well as evil humans, appearing on and off throughout the series.  At one stage, Angel through a scythe at Lindsey which chopped off his left hand.  Lindsey was eventually shot by Lorne (who was our H character).

I don’t have great memories of Lindsey, but again I needed a character to fill the ‘M’ spot.  I do remember that he irritated me a lot.  I just wanted him to leave and be done with, or at least for Angel to thoroughly kick Lindsey’s butt once and for all, but he seemed to stick around for ages.  On Buffy the Big Bad would hang around for a season and then be done, but Lindsey and the rest of the cronies from Wolfram & Hart stuck around for years.  Can you tell I wasn’t a fan?


Oh, and he could play guitar and sing (because the actor himself, Christian Kane, is very musical).  

Christian Kane was at Supanova last year.  I didn’t go and meet him.

Happy Stitching!

  1. I really need to go back and watch the lot again. I've forgotten this character.

    1. :) He was in it a lot for the first couple of seasons, and kept turning up like a bad penny/smell. But I need to rewatch it too
