Great Idea, Rightless Right-holders

The producers and holders to the rights of Buffy the Vampire Slayer (which began as a crapstastic 1992 movie that later was transformed by Joss Whedon into one of the best TV shows like, ever) are planning on staging a comeback without (as of yet) their best asset: Whedon himself!

And that, everyone, is what I call the worst idea of the week. They have no right – they can’t outdo brilliance.

I’m speechless now.

Update: “I hope it’s cool.”

And with that simple statement, Joss Whedon either took the highest road on this news, or delivered the pointiest stake through the heart of this ill-advised idea.
