Not my hero

TV "Yikes! It felt like there wasn't an outline, like the writers simply jumped from joke to joke, from scene to scene, without a sense of telling a coherent story. Imagine a chain, zigging or zagging with every link -- that's what the structure felt like. What were the writers saying about environmentalism, the force of public opinion, or the loyalty and support of a spouse? These were all touched on -- picked up, held into the light, and then put back down as the chain linked off in a new direction." -- Jane Espenson (us tv writer of Buffy, Firefly and The Gilmore Girls) discovers My Hero.
