Which characters would you like to have seen joining Angel Investigations?
I guess the most obvious one would have been Faith. Certainly she fit right into Angel's world with her guest appearances. Her redemption arc would be a good match. And obviously she had some good fighting skills.
Another obvious one would have been Kate. I wonder if that was the ultimate plan for the character, if she had worked out and if the actress had wanted to stay with the series. Having an ex-cop as a PI is an obvious trope.
Heck, there even was already an ex-cop who works with vampires - Vicky Nelson in Tanya Huff's novels beginning with Blood Price. Nelson had to retire from the force due to visual impairment, she worked as a PI and teamed up with vampire Henry Fitzroy - illegitimate son of Henry VIII and modern-day romance writer, (I enjoyed the books. Never saw more than a few second of the Blood Ties TV version.)
Kate would have been able to get them past police barriers, etc.
David Nabbit who appeared in three episodes could have been source of cash, computer know-how and geeky humour. Maybe a touch of what Andrew eventually brought.
