TV show description:
The Buffy the Vampire Slayer spin-off follows the brooding vampire with a soul, Angel (David Boreanaz), after he moves from Sunnydale to Los Angeles and founds Angel Investigations.
His agency seeks to “help the helpless,” defeat evil demons, and to save the souls of those who have lost hope.
He is assisted by half-human/half-demon Allen Francis Doyle (Glenn Quinn), self-involved Cordelia Chase (Charisma Carpenter), fallen watcher Wesley Wyndam-Pryce (Alexis Denisof), street-wise Charles Gunn (J. August Richards), geeky Winifred “Fred” Burkle (Amy Acker), and vampire Spike (James Marsters).

Stupid Ending. Hate it when a show doesn’t even have a proper ending!
Queen C – you obviously didn’t get the message:
THE FIGHT NEVER ENDS…
Brilliant finale, obviously only appreciated by people who understood the show itself.
Seems so Steve.. I hated and loved that ending.. Oo I guess i just never wanted that show to end xD watched all episodes just now.. Sad that it ended but still was a good to end when your at top and not when whole show has dryed up or writes get idiotic..
Nothing like tying things up in a pretty bow, even if it is the dumbest bow ever.
Joss and the writers didn’t have time to write a proper ending. The show was cancelled on such short notice that the storylines had to be wrapped up quickly. Otherwise, the storylines would have played out much different and much better. Thank you to Jordan Levin and the WB for having their heads up thier butts! Live on Corporate America!!
Nonsense. The ending to Angel was PERFECT, and summed up the show’s entire premise in a way that a “happy ending” with finality could never do. One of the major themes of the series is that the battle against evil NEVER ends–that no matter how many bad guys you take out, there are always more.
Angel had a perfect ending, and I wouldn’t have wanted to see it end any other way.
I love the show so much. Wish it didn’t have to end – especially the way the last episode played out. So much left open and unfinished. Whose ever itdea it was to cancel this series – YOU ARE THE MOST IDIOTIC HUMAN ALIVE. We fans have no closure. It left us hoping that there would be more to come; even though we knew there wouldn’t be.
Yes Colleen, the WB have their heads up their butts!
Hmmm, I’m still waiting for the movie……
Check out the Angel: After the Fall comics. The story continues, and quite well.
There definitely won’t be a movie now that Andy Hallett (Lorne) has passed away. RIP, and thanks for bringing such a memorable character to life.
im still waitning for movie is there another season for angel tv show i want ot see it
I finished the last episode last night and was pissed how can you end like that? It’s left open like there’s going to be more and you don’t know how it would end
Because the battle against evil NEVER ends. Its ending was *perfect*.
they should start it back up with a movie because it would become popular again because of twilight and the new love of vampires.
Dear WB
Please bring Angel back on the air. I like that show a lot. & I like it even better when Buffy the Vampire Slayer comes on the show.
Sincerely
John Hill
