'Angel' to lead charmed TNT life
Feb. 27, 2003

NEW YORK -- TNT has acquired exclusive off-network rights to the WB Network drama series "Angel" from Twentieth Television. The 88-episode library will cost TNT about $300,000 per episode, according to sources close to the deal, which was closed quickly over the course of last month's NATPE conference in New Orleans. TNT outbid several competing networks as well. Scheduled to run twice each weekday beginning in the fall, "Angel" will join the network's daytime lineup, which includes "Law & Order," "NYPD Blue" and "ER." Currently a solid primetime performer in its fourth season on the WB, "Angel" will likely be paired on TNT with fellow WB series "Charmed." (Andrew Wallenstein)

This is great news for me. Unlike for Buffy, I don't have all of the Angel episodes on tape. All I have is the first season DVD of Angel, so when it starts airing on TNT, I'll be buying extra tapes. Thanks for the article. Then again, by the time it starts airing, Season 2 will probably be out on DVD, and I won't even have to bother...😛
 
LOL, this is funny. I just sent money to a friend so she could send me copies of the first three seasons, since I've never seen them. I just wonder if I would have done it if I had known about this. Oh well, I'll get to see them earlier.
 
The thing that's most interesting, imo, is that it didn't go to FX. FX, after all, is owned by FOX. FOX, in turn, has rights to both BtVS and Angel and FX airs the BtVS reruns.

It's still good, nevertheless. 🙂
 
Whoo hoo! I'm soo happy! I was wondering when Angel was gonna go into syndication. But yay I can watch them over and over again! lol.
 
Woo hoo!! TNT rocks!! If the WB cancels Angel, do you think that TNT would want to air new episodes? I know that they want Charmed for at least 8 seasons. 😀 😀
