nonasuch:tami-taylors-hair:Charisma Carpenter just confirmed what pretty much anyone who watched Buffy and Angel already knew about Joss Whedon, and that she participated in the investigation of him RE: Ray Fisher.Eagerly awaiting to never hear from Whedon or one of his “strong female characters” again. here’s some awful irony: in the years since Glenn Quinn left Angel I’ve never heard a word said against him by anyone in the cast or crew. Even though we know now that he was an addict, and died of an overdose a couple of years after he left, for years everyone swore up and down that his character’s death was planned from day 1 and he was a joy to work with.Meanwhile, Charisma conducted herself with what I would call a fucking superhuman level of professionalism in the face of active harassment and abuse. And she’s the one who gets tagged with that same old shitty ‘hard to work with’ that always plagues women working under controlling, abusive, insecure men.This sucks. Buffy was deeply formative for me, but it’s been clear for years that Joss Whedon decided he could coast on his 1998 lip-service feminism, and has done so ever since. I hope the rest of the cast steps up to support Charisma. -- source link
