All interesting. But I was referring specifically to the leap forward when they jumped ahead a year or so. All of a sudden people were married and had kids and so on. Some of the key developments we didn't see weren't presented until the end of the season. The difference on that and what Joss is doing is mostly that it's taking much longer. Though I agree that it also maybe doesn't work so well in a comic book medium where the stories he tells in the mean time aren't as viscerally involving.
