    by the way I think dr. horrible was pretty cool but the first person who tells me to buy it on itunes to support joss gets a kick to the balls

    Joss doesn't exactly need support but I would argue that buying it on iTunes will help support shows developed for the web in general

    Of course, going and spending your 5 bucks on a web series that has less name power behind it would probably be even more effective

    Edit: that took me a minute or so to figure out too, Bale

    The fact that I got it all shows I've been lurking SE++ for too long

    Yeah, someone told me he was a chick and I was like "What? no way"
    then I ran into the guy/girl/??? the next day and couldn't discern an adam's apple.
    the game is afoot.

    I don't rightly care, but his voice is extremely high, so it might explain... something.
    It would also explain why he's with a chick no dude who looks like him could achieve... but maybe if he had the power of ... I don't know... whatever power he got imbued with.

    Shit, I think Keith's drunkpoast is contagious and I caught it.

    So I totally missed the freebie showings. Is it worth buying, or do you think they will do another free showing again?

    Joss should team up with Jason Segel and do a muppet musical

    In fact they should just do a full length version of the Dracula musical from Forgetting Sarah Marshall

    Nah, not for the Muppet movie, Segel can write that himself, and he'll make it awesome

    But they could do good things together, puppets or not

    They should sell Buffy/Angel characters as puppets.

    They'd make lots of money.

    You can only get the characters from the Smile Time episode though, it would be cool if they did a whole line of characters, you're right

    I think Joss Whedon takes a childish delight in manipulating expectations. He recognizes that there are many built-in assumptions with regards to plot and character and he plays on those assumptions.

    For example, in one episode of Firefly:
    Simon and that secret agent dude were at a stand-off with River as hostage and there's that split-second when Simon looks away and you totally expect the agent to shoot him and then BLAM! Mal shoots the guy right between the eyes. Game over. They grab the body and toss it and leave. No elaborate denouement, just throw out the garbage and move on.

    Yea, doing things that depart from the norm seems to be one of his favorite things. Which is fine, but at times it seems like he's sacrificing the overall quality of a plot just to make sure it's not falling into the generic. That's never worth it.

    Never say never.

    I don't think he sacrifices quality to avoid triteness. I think he starts out driving down the same old tired road and then at the last minute takes a sudden turn into uncharted territory. It's usually refreshing.

    To be different, I assume. But since we are not dealing with particulars, I suppose I can't comment further.

    At least he doesn't go for the lame-ass twist stuff like M Night Shyamalamadingdong.

    I think he got asked this at Comic Con. IIRC he said he's not; he's had many happy endings and he just couldn't recall any at that time.
