He calls Buffy a show "that doesn't find its legs for at least a season."OTOH, he calls Studio 60 a show that started great, but went downhill from there.

And I definitely think that the show was well...http://www.whedonesque.com/comments/16621 Watch Firefly and Buffy to save the world.- June 16, 2008 http:www.scifi.comvisionshome.htmlRemember this SciFi Channel 'Visions For Tomorrow' poll Well the results are in and Firefly got voted the most powerful work of sci-fi telly.
