Angel (rant time)...


The cancelled TV series "Angel" is still continuing as the comic book mini-series "Angel: After the Fall" (which I'll need to catch up with soon). But I'm still sorry the TV series was killed off.
I should be happy that the Sci-Fi channel is repeating Angel.....but, why oh why, do they bother when they censor any episode showing dubious content.
For example, series 4 of Angel deals with the coming of Jasmine (played by Gina Torres). On the surface Jasmine is a beautiful woman who enslaves everyone who comes into contact with her, but in reality her features are awful and maggot-ridden.
Except the Sci-Fi channel deletes every scene which shows Jasmine's horrific features.
If the powers-that-be at the Sci-Fi channel are so worried about the content of "Angel" why not show it after the watershed?
