Murdoc’s Punishment 01: Be 2D’s personal pony for a day.
I know i’m just a shitpost blog, but I’m a shitpost blog based on a fandom that is processing some pretty massive revelations right now and I’m still trying to organise my thoughts on all of it and will hopefully be able to construct a more coherent post soon, but for the time being here are the broad strokes:
I 100% stand with Charisma Carpenter
Despite my plentiful fond nostalgia for both Buffy and Angel I am keenly aware of their many many flaws and the flaws of their creator
Joss whedon’s actions were and are inexcusable and despite the affection I have for the work many many people put into realising and building his creations, I can safely say I have no respect for him.
Buffy and Angel would never ever be what they were had he made them alone, he doesn’t have the vision, the genius, the integrity or the character he has been credited with, it came from countless people working together, some of them at the expense of their wellbeing under his employment
the heart and soul of the (onscreen) buffyverse begin and end with its actresses, the women who made both shows what they are. period. I would have never watched Angel had it not been for Cordelia, what was done to her character was a slap in the face to the fans, and what was done to Charisma behind the scenes makes me sick.
edit: and of course the female writers who prevented stories of female empowerment from being shaped entirely by men, marti noxon and jane espenson especially.
It warms my heart to see Amber Benson, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Clare Kramer, Michelle Trachtenberg, Emma Caulfield and Eliza Dushku show their support for Charisma. These women are the reason Whedon’s creation has any value at all, and to see them take a stand like this is beautiful.
that’s it for now. but trust me when I say I’m not done talking about this.
