Lindsey McDonald is a fictional character from the television seriesAngel. He debuted in the series' first episode, "City of," and is featured prominently in the story arcs of Seasons 1, 2, and 5. Lindsey is the only character besides Angel himself to appear in both the first and last episodes of Angel. Lindsey is portrayed by Christian Kane.
While primarily an antagonist, Lindsey is shown to be morally ambiguous. Serving as both an enemy and an ally to the Angel Investigations team, he occasionally allied himself with them to stop some of Wolfram & Hart's particularly heinous agendas. There were moments where he could have genuinely switched sides and others where he displayed camaraderie, affection, and, in later episodes, admiration for Angel despite their history. Kane has described the character as being driven by cynicism and ambition: "I still think this cat looks at the glass as being half empty. And so, damn it, I’m going to drink the rest of that water."

My entry for the One Sentence Contest.
Ahh Lindsey McDonald. Such a tragic character. Since season 1 he's been struggling with Good vs. Evil. What side to pick, what path to choose. And just when he made up his mind, his weakness for the fancy things Wolfram&Hart offered him pulled him back in. When he finally did leave his past behind him and tried to be good, Angel betrayed him and had him murdered.

Angel - Heroes don't accept the world the way it is
Angel - Season 5, Episode 17 "Underneath"
Lindsey McDonald: How about this? It's here. It's been here all along, underneath. You're just too damn stupid to see it.
Angel: See what?
Lindsey McDonald: The Apocalypse, man. You're soakin' in it.
Spike: I've seen an Apocalypse or two in my time. I'd know if one was going on under my nose.
Lindsey McDonald: Not "an" Apocalypse. "The" Apocalypse. What... you think a gong was gonna sound? Time to jump on your horses and fight the big fight? Starting pistol went off a long time ago, boys. Since you came to work here at Wolfram & Hart, you're playin' for the bad guys. Every day you sit behind your desk and you learn a little more how to accept the world the way it is. Well, here's the rub. Heroes don't do that. Heroes don't accept the world the...
