Actually, the success of Whedon's other shows have, afaik, always been overplayed. I remember back at the end of Buffy Season 5, Angel Season 2 (think it was that year anyways) a table of the overall ratings for the season, and Buffy and Angel weren't even in the top 100. And the US isn't like the UK where only soaps, documentaries and sports make the top of the tops, things like CSI and ER frequently top the list. Buffy and Angel have a huge dedicated fanbase, sure, and warm critical receptions, but in terms of actual national viewer success, it struck me as a miracle that the pair lasted as long as they did...
