Ode to Joss Whedon Shows (a poem)

Ode to Joss Whedon Shows
by Cat


There once was a man called Joss.
Of tv and writing he was boss.
No one else could compare
To a man with red hair.
From horror to musical, no matter the category.
He is the master of telling a story.


The first show I saw of his was Buffy
Which sounds like it would be lame and fluffy.
The first episode I saw proved me wrong
And I couldn’t wait to see how the story moved along.
Witty one-liners, emotional dialogues, and kick-ass fights
Made for an unforgettable experience on Tuesday nights.



Next came Angel—the brooding detective vamp.
High on noir and short on camp.
He helped the helpless and saved the day
Meeting old friends like Cordy and Wes along the way.
From demons to vamps to puppets and more—
Joss always had an adventure in store!


Let us not forget the short-lived Firefly
Why it got canceled—we don’t understand why!
There was Captain Mal and his crew
Who fought the reevers and the alliance too.
The ship Serenity sailed for better or worse
As one of the finest crafts in the ‘verse.


Last but not least, Dollhouse and Dr. Horrible arrive!
Two Whedon works we all wanted to see thrive.
Dollhouse won over some and disappointed a few
While Dr Horrible’s views on the internet flew!
What Joss has in store next—it will surely be great.
And well worth the wait!

How Joss can do it—genius, talent, or plain ol’ luck.
Remember “Always be yourself, unless you suck.”
