WB Cancels Angel

Dear WB: Fuck you. Fuck you a lot.

I wonder how much of the Buffy cast they'll be able to get on short notice?

With only a few eps in production, it'll be tough.

But they do have at least one Firefly alumnus -- Adam Baldwin -- lined up.

Bugger.

Bastards.

So much for the improvement in ratings...

Meant to post on Enterprise...looks like barring a great turnaround during sweeps, it's going to be gone or shipped to Friday night next year to go die a la the Original Series...

The TV Guide kiss of death?

That weekly rag had a special article devoted to Angel - just like they did Firefly b4 it was shit-canned.

Yep, bastards..

Figures, since I'm starting to get into watching this series.

Nice way for WB to shoot themselves in the foot again.

Man that sucks. I know this is one of those questions I'll probably never get an answer to, but why? What a lousy way to end my day.

Dear Sir,
We are sorry you feel this way about our policy. Perhaps we should explain in more detail. Angel was constantly providing higher-brow relief from the poorly scripted, slashy antics of Smallville. We, in our infinite desire to create a shittier and less intelligent viewing experience, have therefore elected to end Angel with only two months and change warning. This way perhaps while the executives and I bathe in seal blood and eat our three course meal of baby we can contently and sincerely believe we have detracted, however slightly or greatly, from the intelligence quotient of your viewing experience. Furthermore I like to wear dresses and fart loudly in public when I am not enjoying the bittersweet flavor of other people's dissappointment.

Sincerely,
Governor Fuckhead

Wait. If Governor Fuckhead is in charge of WB now, who's running Fox?

Re: WBs reply to Adam

[pinballsorceror.livejournal.com]

haha, good one. But the universe, in its race to ever proliferate bad taste and skullfuckery, has already appointed Admiral Shithead to the post. Of course, Commander in Fucktard is still running FOX news sadly. In lighter news though, the forces of bad taste did forget to stop Battlestar Galactica from becoming a series. So not all is in decline.

Perhaps though this would free up production crew to make a firefly series happen. I really have a warm fondness in my heart for firefly, and I hope the movie gets the picked up by HBO or showtime as a series at least.

WTF?!

F*ckers! >:(

I've actually been hearing this was more Joss' decision than the WB's. But it sucks no matter who is responsible.

If I find anything concrete, I'll share it.

Re:

[unwilly.livejournal.com]

I had not heard that. And if you look at Joss' response on the Bronze he says that he was surprised at Angel being cancelled.

[unwilly.livejournal.com]

Show is better this season
Costs less money
Ratings are up

WB Conclusion: CANCEL IT

Friggin morons.

One more reason I'm glad I didn't spring for TIVO
