i don't feel it is right to protest the content of a creative product like a tv show. joss has said many times he gives the audience what they need, not what they want. if tv shows were decided by polls measuring what the audience wants, they would all suck giant donkey balls.

Your "understandings" are wrong. I have read interviews. Charisma left because 1) She felt there was nothing left to do with the character and 2) She did not want to be on a full time series with a new baby.

And to fess up to something else, I actually have and still do argue about piece of literature I think someone should change. But the only reason I think I have *any* say in that what-so-ever is because he asked what I thought. He's my husband and he usually does.

At the risk of being a big meany again, you can believe all the fan-wank you want to about behind the scene's back-stabbing if it makes you feel better. It doesn't make it true.

Just doesn't make sense to me.

It's really no different than anyone watching a TV show, a movie or whatever and giving a review. Think of what we're saying as a negative review of one element of an otherwise outstanding episode. Clearer?


Best wishes,

Yeah, but this is like a petition to not have William Wallace be killed at the end of 'Braveheart'.

And reviewers don't approach the director, and tell them to make certain changes to the movie to make it more satisfactory; which is what you are proposing.

Not like it matters. I'm sure Whedon will never change a show because of a petition, or the like.

don't you think you come off just a little bit pretensious, claiming you know joss made a mistake? like you know what is better for his own show than him?

i dunno... i'll let this thread die here, on my part anyways.
