Yeah I don't get it either, even after many people have tried to rationalise it for me; to me, Whedon's a scripter who can write some very snappy, quotable dialogue and memorable characters. He has produced some competent, decent material (Firefly), but has also done some horrendous garbage (Alien Resurrection). I suppose the key factor is that he writes for the geek demographic first and foremost so it's only natural that his work garners high emotions, geeks don't know the middle-ground. Me? I just feel conflicted; I either want to shake his hand for Firefly, or stove his head in for Alien 4

I enjoyed Firely, I thought it could funny and had some good characters, even if it was a bit too knowing sometimes. So what, it's not like Whedon wrote every episode anyway. It's just a TV series, get over it guys, it's easy enough to ignore the Whedonites (you avoid their forum *puke* for one).

Try saying that something like Battlestar Galactica is good and you will be told that it's just a poor mans firefly. His fanbase are incredibly annoying, always whining about how Firefly was cancelled after one season. Guess why? Because it didn't get the ****ing viewers!
Also there is no excuse for supporting dollhouse. It's a creepy old mans fantasy masquerading as feminism.

True, I really enjoyed Firefly and mayeb it would have went on to better things but BSG is the best TV show I have ever seen.Assuming you're not pretending to be an angry-net-kid ...

I didn't like Buffy, Angel or any of that other crap aimed at pre-teen girls.0 -
