I think some in the media are sick of wunderkind Whedon and were more than happy to rip on his show. If it had come from any other writer I think it would have been received as a quirky niche show in search of a market and some journalists would have been happy to tout their alterna-cred (like they did with Buffy when no one heard of it..."best show no one is watching" was what Buffy had been called). Now that Joss has fallen (in terms of at least ratings) it is time to jump all over it. Maybe it is the David Kelley syndrome...one man cannot have too many shows. He was the shiznit when he had Chicago Hope. Then Picket Fences was a subversive cult hit. Aly McBeal was witty and sly. Boston Public...okay, enough already. Shasta McNasty...oh my god! The humanity! Etcetera, etcetera...
