The utter ludicrousness of the fact that we haven't got a Joss Whedon Battletech show yet is thrown into sharp relief by your work here. Definitely has a "lived in, possibly by cattle at some point" vibe. Very nice!

Why on EARTH would you want Joss Whedon anywhere near it?

I'm afraid your rhetorical question is unfathomably silly; can you rephrase it in the form of reasons why I wouldn't want Battletech to get the Firefly treatment?

Well, for starters, he's a sexual predator. Further, ever since the original Avengers movie in 2012 his brand of writing humor has proliferated everywhere and has long overstayed its welcome (most notoriously in the MCU but also Star Wars and elsewhere). It was good when it was niche but now that it's everywhere it's obnoxious.
