Oh, Joss. I do not understand your infatuation with Eliza Dushku. She's very excellent at playing a specific kind of character (badass, uninhibited: Faith, pretty much), but she has a very limited range, and I would rather Joss do a project with literally any other Dollhouse cast member than him try to do something with her again. With the amount of incredible people in that cast--Enver and Olivia Williams and Reed Diamond and Dichen Lachman and pretty much everyone else--I can't imagine why he'd rather work with Eliza. *sigh* But clearly, everyone at whedonesque disagrees with me.

Also! Just in case someone missed it, this thread (and yes, you have to read all the comments, since that's where the fun is) might be the greatest thread in the history of lj. Just sayin'.

Thank y'all so much for going with the Three Sentence Fic-a-Thon. It's making me really, really happy, and there's some great, great, great fic being written. Keep it up!

I've replied about the CC thing above. It's an ugly situation.

But yeah, SMG is so professional that she'll actually try to tell you that she thinks it was a good idea to do Scooby-Doo, so I kind of suspect he was an asshat to her.

I think he's probably really, really good to the people he hits it off with (Hannigan, Acker, Dushku, the entire cast of Firefly) and not so much to people he doesn't. Also...I just get the feeling sometimes that after years of people telling him he's a genius that he's a little self-satisfied and that he doesn't like it when people don't pander to that.

I could be entirely wrong about that...but that's the impression I get.
