The vampire Angel, cursed with a soul, moves to Los Angeles and aids people with supernatural-related problems while questing for his own redemption.
It has been said that one of the main reasons for the shows cancellation, was Joss Whedon asking the executives at WB to give the show an early renewal. The executives of the WB felt that Angel was too expensive to continue, and decided to cancel the series.
Angel:
I really don't like it when people shoot me.
A goof seen in archive footage from Angel: City of... (1999) that appears in the opening credits of every episode is when Angel is walking down an alley. In a puddle of water you can see his reflection. Though originally a mistake, they choose to take it through the whole show, as a symbol of his soul.
During the first seconds of the opening credits, the red rim of a chalice in the background forms the shape of a halo over the name ANGEL.
Two deleted scenes appear on the Season 3 DVDs. The first is a segment from Cordelia's fantasy sitcom 'Cordy' from the episode 'Birthday' and the second is a hilarous sequence where Wesley has a fantasy about Fred and himself doing ballet from the episode 'Waiting In The Wings'
