Says of _Angel_ (under 'notes') that 'UPN is contractually required to
pick up the series for next season should the WB cancel it'.
Can you comment on the validity of this? It would ease a lot of fan's
minds if the show really does have this sort of safety net.
Thanks,
Niall

I've got a dragon here, and I'm not afraid to use it.
I'm not Tim Minear - as you might have noticed - but according to my
hazy recollection of the succubus club interview, Tim did indeed confirm
that this was the case, and if I remember correctly seemed completely
unconcerned about the whole affair when questioned about the matter.
*If* the WB cancels the show it has a home on 'the WWF smackdown
channel' (known to the rest of us as UPN) and it's not something to
worry about, whether you are a big-wig producer-type person or a rabid
member of the fan community called Niall.

It's been a long time since I wore this rattlesnake smile
charlatan!
*ahem*
but as far as i know, UPN are indeed obliged to pick the show up. however,
reports suggested that the WB were happy with the way that Angel was
performing, so it's far from clear what their plans are.
a poster on An Angel's Soul Spoiler Board commented that the WB were keen to
try and promote the show Glory Days (which has been a huge failure), and it
could be that aim that's motivated this decision rather than the need to
drop Angel.
just something for consideration.

1) Easy. I advocated the killing of Fred. Would Mr. H ever do that? Even
in jest? Huh? Huh?

mortal heart struggles to endure. No. Wait! That's not going to help, is

Spooky. I'm still very 'Buffy/Angel quote for every occasion'. Everytime
someone says 'Check', I think the words 'no more buttmonkey'. Sometimes
'No more but monk key', though. I blame DarkMagic.
A pancake, mostly. Like a crepe, but bigger, slightly thicker. Serven in
'Pannenkoekenhuizen' here, restaurants that specialize in 'em. You can
have them in sweet or salty varieties. Salt is stuff like Cheese, or
cheese with bacon or ham, that sort of deal. Sweet is more varied. Basic
syrup (not maple, in general, although it's possible),
apple/cinnamon/raisin, strawberries and cream...depends on the season, a
lot's possible.

It's a whole new metaphor. Maybe we can apply it to an episode of Angel.
Let's see, if Angel is a cat, then....no, that just doesn't work, does
it?
Cordelia: One of those Birds of Paradise.
Wes: A small chinchilla.
Gunn: Hmm. A wolf. Alpha male in the pack. Well he was.

There are 2 such restaurants that I know of in London, called "My Old

Lapdog? You make it sound like pets are a bad thing. Which they
aren't.
Except for cats. Cats just use you so far as it suits them, and then
naff off to whoever else can give 'em the good stuff when they feel
like it, then turn up again every so often and suggest that they might
belong to you, before they go away back to that ginger bloke at number
23 who has, unbeknown to you, been feeding them for far longer.

Why settle for a pancake restaurant when you can have a whole
country of pancake restaurants? <g> While I'm at it, I also
demand maple syrup, so we may as well make the country in
question Canada. I demand Canada! Ha ha ha ha!
...no, I'd make a crap supervillain, really.

There's a chain of them in the states - International House Of Pancakes,

Although I've never seen them anywhere other than america...

Well, yes. Wrong kind of pancake, though. Nice thing about them is that
they're open more or less 24/7. IIRC, that is.

Canada, perhaps?
