Wednesday’s Angel episode, Smile Time, was one of the best hours of television this year, not merely because it featured extremely sharp writing, wit and style. Why? Puppet Angel:
It’s too bad that WB has decided to cancel Angel, as it remains one of the most clever and critically appreciated shows on television. But with mediocre, albeit very consistent, ratings and a high production cost, it shouldn’t be all that surprising. After all, why bother to employ writers, actors and effects artists when you can just try to find a little person a bride or have a Celebrity spelling bee.
