Joss Whedon as a form of therapy
Apr. 12th, 2005 07:54 pmIts a sad state of affairs when any good mood I have is dependent on the New Zealand cricket team doing well. I spent most of the day tracking the game on cricinfo and looking from my window in the general direction of The Basin wishing I was over there on another glorious Wellington day.
So how do I fortify the spirit - give myself a kick in the morale to face the next day. There is only solution. I have to resort to the strongest weapon as my disposal - the works of Joss Whedon. Well OK, that may be overstating the case a little - but not a lot.
Well maybe not overstating at all. Since I got home I just feel so much better after watching a few episodes of Angel s5. Not happier so much as mentally more at ease.
I suppose that could be considered a bit sad - in that it only takes a mere TV show to control my state of mind. But gosh, it seems to do that to most of the world. At least I can claim quality on my side.
I wonder if there is a marketing opportunity. Start a clinic for the clinically depressed and show them Whedon shows all day. Perhaps leaving out s6 of Buffy for the bad cases - give them a double dose of Firefly instead.
