Awww...Angel's gone!

There's nothing left!

Top final episode though, with the dragon at the end.

Look here comes an albatross!!

oops sorry wrong thread.

Mal · 08-06-2004, 22:25

Shut up!

08-06-2004, 22:27

LOL.

Sorry.

I must admit I never got into angel much. I watched a few but it didn't appeal. The Tru calling is OK, but again its not quite buffy!!

It was still a good series though, they could've got a least one more before it went stale.

08-06-2004, 22:32

I don't think I watched an entire series of angel, didn't really even know they'd made more than one.

Xaccers · 08-06-2004, 22:34

So is that it? all over?
No more?
No fulfilling of profecy?
Joss isn't having much luck what with the fantastic firefly being canned earlier (nice to see Jayne turn up in Angel tho)

I dunno if the USA has got bored with the genre, or Joss Whedon has fallen out with the studios, but that ending begged for another series?

That's why they made it that way.

The studios decided that the ratings weren't good enough so decided to can the series (half way through making the one they've just shown)

There's a campaign amongst fans to bring it back, but studios never seem to bother to listen to them

yay, more crap off the telly.........

now to get big brother off the air........

Odyssee 5 or whatever (with your man from jake 2.0) is another example of a succesful series which the bureaucrats destroyed. I loved this until they canned it.
7 Days, and Third Watch are other series I await extra episodes.

The best sci-fi show to bite the dust because of the tv executives has to be Farscape. Brilliant show.

With regards to Angel, it kicks Buffy's arse. Especially with Amy Acker

in it. I'm going to miss watching Fred

.

It definitely had the legs for another series but the last series was pretty good. Smile Time has to be the funniest episode of Angel that I have seen. See Spike get his arse kicked by a puppet.

Ive heard rumours that a movie is planned for Angel to carry on where that episode left off if they cant get another series.
Would love to see the Army of slayers come to the rescue

could you imagine the carnage

Seriously though if you have nothing to contribute to the thread you might aswel not post at all

Just about every programme I enjoy or half way like has been cut leaving all the bottom of the heap predictable lowest common denominator programs that I loathe,e.g. every fecking soap that exists and a spate of copycat makeoversellyerjunkwatchpaintdry cr@p.I hate everyone of them and NO I don't watch them on the sly.I frankly wonder what I'm paying out my dosh for each month as there are fewer and fewer programmes to interest me anymore.

Incog.

I am a big fan of Buffy and Angel and have to say that this last season of Angel has been nowhere near as good as the earlier ones, last nights finale was crap, the story just doesn't seem finished and came across as being rushed! Very disappointed at The WB and the writers for this season - could have been so much better
