He gave us Buffy. Loved it - an iconic study in the power of women and the strength to stand-alone without having to have a man by her side. However, he seemed to be jealous of the beauty of the men he created to stand by her -- both Angel and Spike, simply because they were prettier than the physicality of himself, so he made Angel leave and Spike evil, whipped, evil, whipped, then dead. All the while making Buffy "the poor tortured soul" in all this-- supposedly. Interesting writing, it made Joss's career, as well as all the actors'.

He gave us Angel -- interesting and twisted show that played all over the gamut from incestuous to nonsensical. Everyone loved it except the network -- that he keeps returning to (?).

He gave us Firefly -- browncoats can attest to the appeal of the show because the verse lives on-- Serenity shall never die.

He gave us Serenity.....it didn't make the millions desired, but once again the verse lives on.

Millions of fans still follow and write their own continuing fictions about the whedonverse that he so masterfully crafted. BUT, he is just a person.

Wonder Woman isn't in the verse....testimony to the fact that people will give up on the Whedon as my master mentality and only take his putting things off for years and years and years for only so long.

"I'll never do television again.." We are glad he is coming back. We wished he would have picked a different network, but maybe no one else would work with him because of his attitude? He does great work, but he doesn't do it alone. He owes much to his entire team. He owes the success of Buffy to the casting, not to his creative genius and his marvelous writing. He needs to admit that Buffy would have never made 7 years without the gorgeous face and acting ability of James Marsters. No one else draws a crowd like that man. Just ask the folks at the conventions -- the other people hate him. Now that Master Joss has humbled himself enough to come back to TV, he needs to put that man in a series not yesterday, but NOW. he has wasted too many years and too much unearned money being small and spoiled. Sure Joss is talented, but he is also shortsighted and petty. The only reason a Spike movie didn't materialize was because he was "too busy working on other projects" . Hmm...like? Lets get with the program and get a program in place that makes the fans of the verse happy, J-man. One with stick-to-itiveness. One that has meat, substance and makes sense.

Show us your worth, stop being petty, short-sighted and flighty and we'll stop losing faith in you and start rebuilding the pedestals we had raised in the past.

Alison Sweeny has grown up before our eyes. She has matured from a chubby teen to a curvacious beautiful goddess who can handle any facet of her role.

No matter how evil they make her character, who underlying vulnerability comes through and Alison make us love Sami. We wanted her with Austin. We wanted her with Franco. We wanted her with Brandon. We wanted her with Lucas. We just wanted her to be happy.

Since DOOL writers throw such mundane stories as "I can't be whole without a man" the way of characters, we have yet to see what Alison can bring to an independent character. However, with her abilities to turn on a dime, I think she could (Sami) be President with Alison in charge.

If you saw him as Eric Brady, then on Smallville (character slips my mind), and then now, you would agree that this kid can act!

Each character he has approached with the same Texas charm and laid-back approach--without ever revealing that he was a southern boy. He has a smile that won\'t quit, a twinkle in his eyes and a sense of time that is beyond measure.

As Eric Brady on Days of our Lives he played a sweet, sweet boy, in love for the fhirst time, that gets his heart broke by the resident tramp. He made the sense of betrayal believable and the incredulity at beying backstabbed and lied to.

As Jason in Smallville, he was the betrayer and user, yet you truly sensed he loved Lana and didn\'t want t have to use her. He couldn\'t control his mother\'s actions, and did what he could to protect Lana\'s life in the end.

In Suprnatural, he plays a trust no one older brother, demon/thing hunter. He is emotionally scarred and messed up and makes that a believable and unquestionable part of his \"being\".

A normal pretty face could not slide the gamut that this boy has done in his very short, short career.
