Angel Eyes

The fans of recently canceled WB drama "Angel" have discovered this here blog.

And they're, um, not too happy with my previous post about the show, in which I discussed the hundreds of postcards I had received at work urging me to do all I could to save "Angel."

As I wrote at the time: I suppose it would be too easy at this point to lament the fact that all of that energy could be better harnessed to feed the hungry or shelter the homeless. But hey, there's a TV show to be saved here! (And I've been busy waging my own "Renew 'Arrested Development'" campaign, cornering every Fox exec I can find.)

Besides the mail, these "Angel" fans have purchased ads in Variety, bought billboards around town, have started a blood drive campaign (there you go! Some positive harnessing!) and continue to barrage WB topper Jordan Levin with all sorts of gifts. But alas, I think this work will be in vain. "Angel" isn't coming back.


Well. Hell hath no fury like a few "Angel" fans scorned. I've heard from several fans who have emailed us or posted below to point out that, in the name of saving the show, "Angel" fans have indeed donated much money to food drives and other worthy causes.

I stand corrected. The show's still dead. But I stand corrected.
