a question for the Buffy fans on my flist

So, I've been devouring watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and I've gotten to the point where Angel spins off. How should I watching the show from here on? Should I alternate episodes? Watch a season of one, and then a season of the other?

Also, is it work trying to get my hands on any of the comic books once I finish the shows?

Your thoughts are greatly appreciated.
