First of all, in his anguish, dear Mr Weeden calls upon the great Robert Frost's

The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth; 5

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same, 10

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back. 15

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
====================================

That poem has been with me since I was about 9. My older brother read it into a microphone while my Dad taped. I then read Longfellow's The Wreck of the Hespress. Dad was a DJ in college, and he liked messing about with audio gear and taping things.

As to Joss, what has made all the difference for him, it seems to me, is that he did indeed take the road less travelled by, which is why his stuff stands out. If he'd put out just any old TV show, he'd not have all that success to deal with. :) I think in a few days he will, with the emotion of a good thing ending having run its course, pick up and try something else different, and of quality.

Judging by the variety of folks here who really like his work, I'd guess he and his closest collaborators will take another interesting journey, and bring his fans along for an interesting ride.
