So, Joss is a Gleek. You don't say.

(εικόνα από EW)

O Joss Whedon αγαπάει Glee, το Glee αγαπάει Joss Whedon, οι δυο τους θα κάνουν μαζί ένα υπέροχο τραγουδιστό παιδάκι κάποια στιγμή αυτή την άνοιξη. Yep, ο Joss Whedon θα σκηνοθετήσει ένα musical. Δεν έχει πάει ποτέ καλά αυτό στο παρελθόν, όχι.

Τη χαρά του και τις σκέψεις του ο βραβευμένος με Emmy (hem) δημιουργός του Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog και του επεισοδίου-σταθμού 'Once More With Feeling' μοιράστηκε με ένα post του στο Whedonesque, το οποίο ακολουθεί μετά το άλμα. ("Is death really the only thing I'm known for? I'd hope not. You know how many people in the world actually die? ALL OF THEM. You know how many I've killed? Statistically, somewhat fewer.")

Hey kids and parents of kids and super-old, like ancestor-old-but-not-dead-yet-type people, just poking my oversized head in to say that the rumors are true... unless something very odd happens in the next few months, I will have the privilege of shooting an episode of GLEE. Why GLEE? Because I love cops, serial killers and gritty urban drama (I haven't seen the show yet). Why me? Because they're struggling and can't afford real directors. And to head off a few queries:

No, this doesn't mean Dollhouse definitely won't get a back nine. Our numbers mean that! But I kid. Okay, we're not exactly saving all the good stuff for 14-22, but nobody's closed the door. If D'House suddenly busts wide, huzzah, we'll still bring it, and I'll still go and direct an episode of Glee, because of my love of cops. These realities can co-exist. And possibly cross over, at least in fiction that I have wri - read. About.

What can we expect from a 'Joss Whedon' epsiode of Glee? An episode of Glee. God willin' and the crik don't rise, a good one. A television director's job is, on some level, to be anonymous; to find the most compelling way to present a story without calling attention to himself. I had a wonderful time doing just that on The Office, and hope to again. A guest director can bring a huge amount to the party (we've had CRAZY talent on Dollhouse), but the party isn't his. I just want to work with good people on a show that I like enough to have watched every episode several times. (I lied: I HAVE watched the show. And seriously, when do the cops show up?)

Whom will I kill? When will that go away? Is death really the only thing I'm known for? I'd hope not. You know how many people in the world actually die? ALL OF THEM. You know how many I've killed? Statistically, somewhat fewer. Can't we focus on another element of my work? Having said that, probably Principal Figgins. (No! I kid! God.)

Anyway, I hope that clears things up. I'm going to do my best, and more importantly, I'm going to do my best not to gush like a fanboy for eight straight days on set. Don't worry. I practiced with Bamber. I'm a pro.

Happy Monday. Especially for me. -j.

  4. E ναι, RIP είναι καρα-ξεκάθαρο, αλλά δείτε το θετικά. Βγήκε άλλη μία σεζόν από το πουθενά, αλήθεια δεν είναι λίγο. Και το ξέρουμε και αρκετά νωρίς ώστε να μην κουβαλάμε το άγχος του "τι θα γίνει". This is it, 10 ακόμα μείνανε, ας τα απολαύσουμε, απλώς.
