Angel Sixth Season - Discussions Are Going Ahead
From Pixsys.co.uk - By Gjac1 & Sky News - 2004-03-7th

BSKYB BACKS ANGEL

I sent 3 emails to Sky Tv in the UK last week and i have just got a reply back. As people know Sky One show all new episodes of Angel here in the UK so i wanted to know what they thought about Angel being canceled and what they knew about it. I asked several questions about Angel and they have replied to each of them. Here is the reply i got :

Thank you for your email, we are glad to hear you are enjoying the new season of Angel on Sky One .

Here at Sky One we too where suprised by the decison to cancel Angel after its current season. Angel has always been one of our more popular programs with a loyal and passionate fan base.

To answer your question yes Sky have been in contact with both the producers of the show and the American based broadcast network The WB and we are told that discussions are going ahead behind closed doors to try and secure a sixth season of Angel but unfortunantly we are not privy to the information from these discussions.

Sky One have assured the producers of the show they have our 100% support and we intend to continue showing Angel on our channel should an agreement be made to secure another season.

As to your question of other networks picking up the show, unfortunantly we do not have information on this but be assured everything is being done to try and bring Angel back to Sky One next year.

Kind Regards

Good news? I hope so, and forgive if this has been posted all ready!

I have to admit, this does sound hopeful. Could be that all the media attention and fans fighting for the show have made the WB reconsider. It´s not the first time, after all. I remain a bit sceptical, but I´m hoping for the best.

I have to agree, this seems to be very good news. Here's hoping that something will come out of it!

hopefully the WB will come to their senses and see that cancelling angel was a mistake....I mean with affiliate networks telling them to keep it on the air it's almost stupid if they didnt.
