Buffy,
The Wire,
Hill Street Blues,

All the scripts to The Inside. Tim Minear, an altogether rather talented producer/writer/director behind
Firefly,
Angel, and
Wonderfalls, created a serial killer show with a difference back in 2005. It was interesting, weird, critically acclaimed, and on FOX, so of course it got cancelled after 13 episodes. Luckily,
Mr. Minear has posted on his own site the draft scripts to every episode, as written by himself and
his talented friends. They make for fun reading, for those who don't mind reading scripts and would like some tightly-written, throughline-having, serial killery goodness without that funny
CSI aftertaste.

In this graduate seminar we will investigate the world -- the "Jossverse" or "Whedonverse" -- of Joss Whedon (1964- ), third generation television writer (both his father and grandfather wrote for the medium), creator of three television series (
Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Firefly), script doctor for a variety of films (including
Speed, Toy Story, Alien Resurrection), and comic book author (
Fray, Astounding X-Men).
