David -An Angelic Guest Comes to Chat -Kind of spoilerish

[LoniFoloni]

This Monday at 6 p.m. ET, David will be here to answer all of your burning questions about what's ahead for Angel (hint: juicy happenings in store for the return of his son Connor) and the exciting paternal happenings in his own life--his wife, Son of the Beach star Jaime Bergman, is due to give birth to their first child any minute now.

If you haven't been watching Angel this season, let me tell you--you've been missing out. Despite the departure of soul-mate Buffy the Vampire Slayer to UPN, Angel has held its own on Monday nights, serving up some of its best episodes--and stirring up more fan reaction than an ice-skating judging snafu, thanks to the romantic tension between Cordelia and Angel.

You can beat the rush by sending in your questions for David on my Ask Wanda page http://www.eonline.com/Gossip/Wanda/ask.html , then come back for Monday's chat (or Tuesday's transcripts) to see if David answered you.

In the meantime, faithful tubers, I have a mission for you involving shows that--just like Angel-- have not yet been renewed.

Thanks! I don't know what to ask him...I have to think about this for awhile. There is so much I want to know. :)

David Boreanaz Sinks His Teeth into Your Q's!
This week, daddy-to-be David Boreanaz stops by to tell you what you're dying to know about his WB show, Angel, and his real-life bundle of joy. Plus, Wanda dishes on an Alias abduction, a returning Buffy cast member and Phoebe's new love interest on Friends.

Hey, guys, David Boreanaz is in the house! Let's get started...

From magda: Excellent acting, Mr. Boreanaz! On a more personal note, how do you feel about becoming a father?
David: Thank you. It's an experience that keeps unfolding every day, so I look forward to the moments ahead.

From Wanda: Did you find out the baby's sex?
David: No. We decided to be surprised. We're just going to wait.

From Elizabeth: What's your favorite side of Angel to portray? Brooding, goofy, evil...or some other aspect?
David: I kinda like the goofy side. I was able to do that a lot more this year. But the evil side is fun, too.

From Pam: I so enjoy your performances. And I wish you and yours the very best. What is that substance you drink as blood?
David: Thank you. It looks like there's blood in there, but it's really just a magic glass that has red stuff on the outside of it. I usually just drink water.

From larrypigtails: Can you tell us about teen Connor?
David: Yeah, what do you want to know? The guy who plays him--his name is Vincent; he's from Minnesota; he's a good fit. There's a nice camaraderie between the two of us.

From brookenicole: What's coming up on the Connor front?
David: Well, you'll see him come back and see what his purpose is. He does have a purpose. Sorry, but that's about all I can say right now. There is a lot of really big, big stuff coming up.

From leopard185: How many babies played baby Connor?
David: There were three. Triplets. We lucked out, and they were just so cute. I love kids; I connect really well with them, so they was easy for me to play off of.

From angelrain: Why the name Connor? Any special significance? And do you want to reveal some of the names you're considering for your real-life baby?
David: Connor because it's Irish. As for mine, we've thought about it, but nothing's definite.

From angelfan517: Do you still keep in touch with anyone from Buffy? Best wishes for your son/daughter.
David: No. And thank you.

From tracy1630: Do you miss working with S.M.G. and the Buffy cast?
David: It's so busy having my own show that I don't get to think about it much. It was great working with them, though.

From Tiffany: Has impending fatherhood changed you? If so, in what ways?
David: Obviously, anything like that can change your living situation. But the baby hasn't come yet, so I don't know what's going to happen. As far as my lifestyle is concerned, it has been busy. I'm just so in love right now, and I can't wait. I'm excited...and a little nervous. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous.

From Amanda: Do you think you would be willing to continue your acting journey on Angel for three more years if asked?
David: I'm definitely open to it. We just need to see how it plays out, and what the future brings. I hope to stick around.

From minshe: You have had the opportunity to play Angel with and without a soul--which do you enjoy the most, and why?
David: I'd have to say without. Everyone loves to be evil. It's a hell of a lot of fun.

From lmarmalade: David, your fans want to know: When are you going to take your shirt off again? It has been almost a year!
David: It's great that you have the time table. [Laughs.] I guess it's a good thing if it keeps you coming back.

From Dianne: Please tell me that you're going to have sex soon on Angel. (Hopefully for more than one episode!) At this point, I don't even care with whom...
David: It's another touchy subject for Angel. Right now, he's dealing with his son, so there isn't a lot of time for that. But I think it will happen.

From gana: We love Angel and Cordelia. What do you think of the match?
David: He's somewhat interested, but he can stray. Angel's really not the perfect mate--if someone doesn't keep him interested, he gets distracted. And don't forget, he can turn evil at any moment.

From Nicole: David, love you and your Dad--we watch him on the news all the time! Do you think Angel will ever have another serious relationship with a woman, or was Buffy it?
David: That's so hard to say. But it just might happen again. I think it will.

From myrasgirls: We've been seeing a darker side of Angel (rather than Angelus). Do you feel Angel has always had this darkness in him, or is it brought on by his love for Connor?
David: It's definitely his love for Connor.

From sscrumb: There was a rumor on the Internet a while back quoting you as saying that Angel's relationship with Buffy was a crush compared to Angel's relationship with Darla. Is this an urban myth--did you really say that?
David: I'm not sure how to answer that, because it's something Angel said. It was my character, not me. Angel's relationship with Darla was one thing; his relationship with Buffy was another. You can't really compare the two.

From marybeth735: Will you be doing any new projects such as movies during the hiatus?
David: I have one coming out, I'm with Lucy, but there's no release date. Of course, I'm having a baby, so that's going to take up a lot of my time. And just coming off of 22 episodes, I'm pretty exhausted. I'd rather refuel than do something stupid. I get a lot of offers that just aren't worth doing.

From Catnance: Are you really adding Man of Steel to your credits?
David: No. That's probably another rumor.

From thesaurusgirl: Anything juicy we can sink our teeth into for the season finale?
David: Well, there's gonna be huge fighting. In Angel's relationship with Cordelia, a lot is answered...some of it will be answered in season four.
From Amy: Great, great work in "Forgiving," David! I know Angel is furious at Wesley, but do you think he'll ever forgive him?
David: I'll have to figure that one out. It's going to take time.

From elliewnvi: Do you think Angel and Wesley's tension will last through season four?
David: Definitely. They have a lot to work through.

From Lex: Have you heard anything on the status of Angel returning to the WB?
David: No. I don't really involve myself with that.

From rufololb: Can you give us a hint on what Cordy's demon powers are?
David: I can't. Because I don't even know. Sorry.

From Victoria: I know the days must be long and hard, but what do you guys do in between takes to keep the juice a-goin'?
David: I just kinda rest. Eat snacks. You only have twenty-minute breaks, so there's not a lot of time.

From Steph: I have read that you don't watch your own show. What on TV do you enjoy--besides sports?
David: The AMC Classic movies. Home-gardening shows (I love messing around in the garden)...and sports.

From Prufrock: What do you think about Angel and Lilah as a couple?
David: I don't see it happening. I think that's kinda crazy.

From rarelyangelic: What is your favorite episode and why?
David: I'm partial to the second show of last season--when I got to go back in time. But they're all great; it's hard to find just one.

From Lesley: Do you like the direction your character is taking on Angel?
David: Absolutely. I think it has been one of the best seasons.

From bablebrook: Who is the funniest Angel cast member?
David: Andy Hallett. He cracks us up.

From Angela: There are some rumors that you speak Italian and German. Is this true?
David: I do speak a little bit of Italian.

From Wanda: Okay, you guys, David is a pretty busy guy--what with being a daddy-to-be and all. So, he's got to go. Pardon me while I resist the urge to tackle him and chain him to my desk...
David: Thank you guys so much for being here. And thank you for watching the show. I think you're really going to like the end of the season. Take care.

Okay, back to reality here (scraping self off of ceiling)...A big thanks to David for being here and yakking it up with us. He is such a sweetheart for taking the time.

From bloodandbliss: Tackle him for us, too!
I tried. He really is strong. Well, at least, stronger than a swooning couch potato.

From spoiledforlife: Is his wife going into labor?!
No, but she's due very soon. Within the next week and a half.

From roguemagnus: Spill! What's up with Angel's son, played by Vincent Kartheiser?
Joss spoke very highly of him today. I'm talking to Vinny later this week, so I'll let you know, my dear. Now, let's shift gears a bit: What'd you guys think of Alias last night--and especially those previews for next week? Oh, maaaama.
