註釋
Joss Whedon: The Genius Behind Buffy is a biography of Joss Whedon
, the wunderkind creator of television shows
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
,
Angel
and
Firefly
.
From
Booklist
: Writers, actors, and fans often call Joss Whedon a genius. It's easy to see why. Whedon, who got his start writing for Roseanne, dreamed of writing movie screenplays. He got his shot when he sold his script for
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
, but the movie fell far short of his hopes for it. After a few years of working as a script doctor, Whedon got the chance to do
Buffy
again, this time as a TV show.
Few expected it to succeed, but Whedon's humor and intelligence shone through in the scripts, and viewers quickly became attached to the engaging, witty characters. Buffy kept getting better: each season of the show featured a complex story arc possessed of a real sense of danger and further developed the characters. The last few years have brought the Buffy spin-off
Angel
, the lamentably canceled
Firefly
(a space western), and the comic book Fray. Engaging and filled with fun quotes, this is a must-read for Whedon's many fans.
