When I say this, I don’t just mean that I am a fan of Joss Whedon. I am sincere. I live and breathe his works, the ever-expanding universe— sometimes funny, sometimes scary, and often heartbreaking—that he has created. A multi- talented writer, director and creator, Joss is responsible for television series such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer , Firefly , Angel , and Dollhouse . In 2012 he collaborated with Drew Goddard, writer for Buffy and Angel , to bring us the satirical horror film The Cabin in the Woods . Most recently he has been integrated into the Marvel cinematic universe as the director of The Avengers franchise, as well as earning a creative credit for Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. My love for Joss Whedon began in 1998. I was only eleven years old, and through an incredible moment of happenstance, and a bit of boredom, I turned the television channel to the WB and encountered my first episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer . I was instantly smitten with Buffy Summers. She defied the rules and regulations of my conservative southern upbringing.

  • 2009 Global Press Release
    TV fans to raise $150,000 for Charity at the 4th Annual "Can't Stop The Serenity" Worldwide Movie Screenings Between May and September 2009, fans of popular cult television and film writer/ director Joss Whedon, will gather worldwide to raise money for "Equality Now," a charity dedicated to promoting the human rights of beleaguered women and girls. Worldwide (CSTS) May 7th, 2009 - For the fourth year in a row, thousands of people around the world will participate in “Can’t Stop the Serenity” fund-raising events to benefit "Equality Now," a charity organization working to protect the basic human rights of women and girls across the planet. Since 2006, more than a quarter of a million dollars has been raised and they plan to add another $150,000 in 2009. Who is behind this phenomenon? It’s not the product of any formal action network like Equality Now, a relief group or even a foundation. These humanitarians aren't even a group of rich philanthropists or celebrities. They are simply the fans of a prematurely canceled sci-fi television series called "Firefly" and its climactic movie, "Serenity". The volunteers who organize these charitable events, without prompting from the show’s creators or Equality Now, have created a worldwide event that spans three continents. This annual celebration of equality and Joss Whedon’s birthday is known as "Can't Stop the Serenity," and the men and women behind it are simply known as "Browncoats" after the heroes of the show. Says Amanda Sullivan, director of Equality Now: “Amazing as it is, we are heading into our fourth season of CSTS global screenings! It is a difficult time for us and a difficult time for everyone right now.

  • The Use of the Works of Joss Whedon
    Compendium2 4.1 (2011): 35-42 Using Joss Whedon in the Composition Classroom ERIN WAGGONER “How did your brain even learn human speech? I’m just so curious.” -Wash, “Objects in Space” Introduction In her conclusion to Faith and Choice in the Works of Joss Whedon, K. Dale Koontz asks the question, “will college come to Buffy?” (187). Several schools offer classes on Buffy the Vampire Slayer as well as Joss Whedon’s works as a whole—one of my own independent study classes included. When I first started teaching English composition, I wasn’t entirely sure how to incorporate Buffy, or any television shows for that matter, into the classroom. I knew, however, that I wanted to use the shows as supplemental in-course “readings.” After some trial and error, I came up with a method for utilizing television shows as texts. When I assigned students texts and essays to read, most seemed uninterested, and that showed in their writing assignments. However, when I used television or other media-related tools, the students’ writing demonstrated increased interest through better responses—because the rhetorical imagery appealed more to students than constant reading. This prompted me to find a way to utilize television as my main text for teaching. With my love of Buffy and all things Whedon, it was only natural that once I figured out how to use television, I would focus my lessons on episodes from Whedon’s shows. What surprised me was the overall positive response my teaching methods received, both from students and colleagues. Using Whedon’s work as a supplemental text in the composition classroom has proven a successful teaching tool.

  • Romance in Dollhouse Lorna Jowett
    ‘I love him... Is that real?’ Interrogating Romance in Dollhouse Lorna Jowett A Dollhouse Confession (not mine!), website Because of Joss Whedon’s commitment to what he regularly calls feminism in interviews and commentaries, the Whedon creations have consistently interrogated the myth of heterosexual romance. Long-running TV shows like Buffy and Angel offered wide scope for examining romance alongside other aspects of gender and sexuality. The mix of conventions in these earlier shows also lend themselves to negotiating romance from different angles, whether this is about characters growing up and changing their own ideas about romantic and sexual relationships, or what you can ‘get away with’ in a fantasy show about vampires. Firefly featured both a happily married couple and a sex-worker, neither common-place in network TV drama, allowing that shorter-lived series to move away from obvious conventions of romance. And then there’s Dollhouse, where almost all of the characters are either prostitutes or pimps. Melissa Milavec and Sharon Kaye suggest that Buffy ‘owes much of its popularity to making erotic love a dominant theme’ (2003: 174): Dollhouse may owe its lack of popularity to the way it treats much the same theme in a more disturbing fashion. ‘Like every good fairy tale, the story grows more intricate, and more divisive, every decade,’ says a reporter of Dollhouse rumours in ‘The Man on the Street’ (Dollhouse 1.6). His words are equally applicable to the myth of heterosexual romance as tackled by the Whedonverses on TV. The Whedon shows offer a sustained interrogation of gender, but are complicated by the demands of mainstream entertainment.

FIREFLY 3.10 3.10 Zombies, Reavers, Butchers, and Actuals in Joss Whedon's Work Gerry Canavan For all the standard horror movie monsters Joss Whedon took up in Buffy and Angel-vampires, of course, but also ghosts, demons, werewolves, witches, Frankenstein's monster, the Devil, mummies, haunted puppets, the Creature from the Black Lagoon, the "bad boyfriend," and so on-you'd think there would have been more zombies. In twelve years of television across both series zombies appear in only a handful of episodes. They attack almost as an afterthought at Buffy's drama-laden homecoming party early in Buffy Season 3 ("Dead Man's Party" 3.2); they completely ruin Xander's evening in "The Zeppo" (3.13) later that same season; they patrol Angel's Los Angeles neighborhood in "The Thin Dead Line" (2.14) in Angel Season 2; they stalk the halls of Wolfram & Hart in "Habeas Corpses" (4.8) in Angel Season 4. A single zombie comes back from the dead to work things out with the girlfriend who poisoned him in a subplot in "Provider" (3.12) in Angel Season 3; Adam uses science to reanimate dead bodies to make his lab assistants near the end of Buffy Season 4 ("Primeval" 4.21); zombies guard a fail-safe device in the basement of Wolfram & Hart in "You're Welcome" (3.12) in Angel Season 5.
