I have to say I'm rather bemused at how negative the response to this interview has been. She doesn't really slag off Scifi fans all that much, I've heard far worse. As for Joe not jumping to the defence of the fans - if he had he'd have come across as a complete arse who takes himself and the show far too seriously.
I'm one of the biggest scifi geeks around and I wasn't remotely offended by anything either of them said, sure it made me roll my eyes a little bit but a lot of people just don't "get" scifi (Joe F included I suspect) but that's fair enough, I don't get reality TV or soap operas.
