The Kiss of Death from the WB
It's Valentine's Day. It doesn't apply to me so I couldn't care less. Rather, I feel like skinning some people alive. I woke up this morning to check my e-mail. I was minding my own damn business when I come across the press release from the WB saying that Angel won't have a season six. WTF?!

Damn those WB execs. I'll be happy to kill them all. Apparently, the announcement came on Friday the 13th. Great timing. Two weeks ago, Angel aired its 100th and they had a huge party in December when they were filming the episode. The pricks who make all the decisions must've been like "Oh let's go to that party! Hot chick reporters! We can tell them we're cancelling the show later." Or maybe the WB assholes finally figured out that Angel running W&H was one huge corporate rant by Joss Whedon in revenge of the whole Buffy moving to UPN fiasco. Angel should move to UPN or something. Or HBO. Or whatever station. I just want the show to live. Please don't make me watch The O.C.

Back to the ranting. Cancelling Angel is outrageous. Obviously, it wasn't Joss' idea or anybody else's except for those WB dipshits who don't have much upstairs. Even all the TV critics have been saying Angel has been resusitated this season and hasn't been alienating to new viewers. So the ratings aren't fabulous but they were much better than last year's So why the hell are you cancelling it? WHY??????

If you dicks at the WB are pulling the plug on Angel to put your money into Dark Shadows, the stupid vampire soap by John Wells, you're even more lacking in brain cells than I thought. You think Ats and BtVS fans will just love it because it's about vampires. It really is a shame that we're not stupid like you think we are. We know John Wells is the guy that produced ER. Granted, he has a good track record. It's blatant that the WB wants to create a show that was just like Buffy during its 2nd and 3rd seasons so it can get more teenyboppers watching your soddin' network again. But John Wells just can't do that because in case you haven't noticed, his name isn't Joss Whedon. Same initials, but spelled differently. Just because you WB psychos aren't smart enough to understand Angel doesn't mean you have to make everyone else stoop to your level.

Enough ranting. I have no more words. I think I'll go brood for awhile. Then maybe I'll shift to withdrawal.

I actually read this before I checked my e-mail.

So I did not get a subject line warning telling me to sit down.

Luckily, I was already sitting down.

There are no words.

I read your e-mail b4hand. I thought it was a joke. It's a joke right? *shakes head in denial* I live in Egpyt. I live in Egypt. I live in Egypt. (whispers mantra over and over) It's a lie. I need to lie down and booze out. How can the f*cking WB execs do this. Angel has been doing better then last year, just becuz Angel isn't attracting mindless hormonal preteens who don't know the difference between Socrates and "Ed the Sock", they're cancelling it. The channel needs more dumb ppl, stupid americans. Why can't they appreciate ppl wiht a higher intellectual capacity then those who watch "survivor"? Tv is getting dumber and dumber. I hope Angel continues its life on another station, UPN can come to the rescue. SMG you better come back. I want closure. I need it. I can't believe this is happening. Let's pray for a miracle. I'll go brood now.
