He just takes no notice of it!
"I do read the boards, but people who log onto these boards represent a small part of the show's audience," Braga told Cinescape Magazine.
"They are, however, an audience," he continued. "And they are fans of the show, so I'm interested to hear what they have to say. But if you try to track everything, you'll go crazy. Some of these people are vicious. It can really bruise your ego. They get personal. And some of them are 12 years old, but you don't know that."
The Enterprise Executive Producer went on to describe the first reactions online to the show. "Well, initially there wasn't a lot of criticism. Initially, it was a love fest, Internet fans loved the show!" he said. "But recently some of the old angst is coming back. The biggest criticism is the basic stuff: "This episode sucks. It's bland. It's a shitty episode. Archer is stupid. They are ruining the franchise.'"
However he was quick to point out that some online responses can be very useful. "There is also a great deal of intelligent criticism on the net - people who give very bright analysis. And I can't tell you how much I appreciate that."
Those were my posts -- the intelligent ones
