It may be the showrunner and everyone else contributing towards the final product but that doesn't change the fact that, at the end of the day, someone is in charge. And whoever that someone is is responsible for seeing that all of the different elements provided by all of the different people come together into one coherent whole. Saying that it's not X's fault because there were hundreds of other people involved in the operation is like saying it wasn't Custer's fault that his forces got decimated at the Battle of Little Big Horn.

Custer was in charge. At the end of the day, regardless of how many subordinates he had, it was his fault. Whedon is in charge. If AoS isn't any good, it's his fault.

Otherwise, you're consigning all of those people who put out amazing products on a fairly consistent basis to merely being incredibly lucky (and ignoring that at least a portion of their luck was actually hard work) and letting others who frequently put out flops off the hook because if it's all a matter of luck and lightening, then nothing is their fault anyway... including their inability to write different characters with different voices or fill in gaping plot holes.

(And no, I haven't seen AoS yet. So none of that last paragraph was specifically about Whedon. I just really, really loathe the idea that it's okay to blame the subordinates for the boss's mistakes. They're just doing what they've been told to do by the guy who actually makes the decisions.)
