....I'm also a bit pissed off w/ the "only Joss can write Buffy" bollox that's been going on here lately. That's just patently untrue. Buffy's always been a team effort, and, while Joss is clearly fantastic (I look forward to his episodes as much as anyone else), I honestly believe writers like Jane Espenson are, maybe not equally as good, but real good nevertheless. AND that the other writers clearly love and understand their characters. Many of these guys have been w/ the series from very early on, so, I dunno....I think there's a kinda "Buffy's sold out...there's no soul anymore.." sorta vibe round here, and I'm just not w/ that. I want someone to explain to me why the writing's suddenly "so bad" - I want to understand what I (and all my Buffy watching mates - a shit load of creative, media-literate people) are missing. And don't just repeat the old argument that the characters add too many -ey's at the end of their sentences - that one's old, lazy and just. not. true.
I really, honestly believe this series has some of the best scripting and acting that Buffy has ever seen. And I know I'm not exactly providing any examples either, but I'd be glad to. |
