    And entertainment news of this sort is critical to nerds how? Or maybe I'm just someone who hasn't seen the show. Oh well, what can you do?

    I don't watch much TV, so my opinon is skewed...but it was crap. However, it doesn't make much sense to cancel a show whose ratings are on the rise.

    Ehh TV sucks anyway. Who cares, cancel your cable/satellite service and read a book.

    Gee, thanks Taco for taking a break from posting story after story mocking Microsoft and near-constant updates on SCO--no matter how minor--just to inform us all of the cancellation of your favorite television show.

    Honestly, is Angel even popular amoungst geeks? Why is this on /., let alone on the front page?

    Any show with an episode about Nazis and Vampires, in my mind, has jumped the shark.

    Angel has done it. They might as well have ended it right then and there.

    Firefly was brilliant, and Angel really did suck anything presented to it in even the most casual manner...

    This thread really sucks. You people are pathetic.

    Let's see: this is a Sunday, so you're home with your families, but you're here instead, meaning you don't got no families, you don't got no lives, you don't got nuthin'.

    And ya ain't gettin' laid neither. Obviously.

    What was I saying?
