Well-played, Maureen Ryan.
Nov. 9th, 2009 01:12 amMaureen Ryan publishes a review of SGU, in which she says she is disappointed.
Brad Wright comments, publicly, on a different review of Ryan's (for V, in which she references SGU). He probably doesn't realize that he comes across as condescending and rather without adequate argument.
Ryan responds to his comment with a thoughtful, considered, more in-depth discussion of SGU's shortcomings and what her hopes for it had been, and tells him not to worry about her talking about it again, because she's done.
I feel that Brad Wright is treating the word sexist like some people treat the word racist: that is, he's vehemently denying it applies to his work, not because it doesn't, but because he understands that people dislike things that are sexist.
IN SUM - SGU: a show I may frequently be found not watching. In fact, I can be found not watching it right now.
