I feel the show is getting better pretty much every week, and I think you’ll agree in the coming months. I’m grateful that we got to put it on, and then come back and put it on again. By the time the last episode airs, you’ll know what my next project is,” Whedon also wrote. “But for now there’s a lot of work still to be done, and disappointment to bear.”
