"Asked in a recent interview how he felt about the fact his texts are dissected by scholars, Whedon said: "I take these things enormously seriously, and so do my writers. We don't come at it from a point of view of `that would be cool.' If somebody does I fire them.
"Cool is easy to come by, but the heart of a thing, what really matters is why we're there ... the oddities within myself and the oddities within the show that we're not aware of or in control of/ are absolutely worthy of study. Did I expect people would get together and take them seriously? I did not ... I find it enormously gratifying."
How gratifying he might have found hearing 300 scholars who had just finished their chicken-and-Jack-Daniel's pie belting out his songs, we can only imagine."
It might depend on whether they could carry a tune in a No. 3 washtub . . .
