Question: does buffy show up in angel season 5

Answer: No, Buffy the Vampire Slayer concluded the previous season, therefore there are no official crossovers between the two series. Despite this, references are made throughout the fifth season of Angel that relate to Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Spike is resurrected (after his death in ``Chosen'') by the magical amulet Angel gave to Buffy at the start of the finale. Spike subsequently becomes a main character of the season. Harmony Kendall (Mercedes McNab) also becomes a main character and joins the star cast for the season. Buffy recurring character Andrew Wells (Tom Lenk) appears in two episodes (``Damage'' and ``The Girl in Question''), revealed to be a Watcher-in-training. Andrew states in ``Damage'' that Xander is in Africa, Willow and Kennedy are in Brazil, Buffy and Dawn are in Rome, and everyone else is in England.
