The strong suspicion on some of the fan sites is that Angel didn't 
fit into WB's current lineup of 'family orientated' drama, which 
means it doesn't fit into the advertising profile that WB is going 
for. No moms, no dads (now), no kids-with-strange-powers in High 
School. 

I've signed the online petition, but sending a paper letter is 
pretty useless from the UK - I can't watch the advertising anyway, 
so can't tell them that they're not just cancelling a show, they're 
losing a consumer [grin].
