Well, Much Ado is a very bitter "comedy" anyway. One (possibly?) happy marriage, yes, and then one that's more practical than happy, one almost-death (including daddy saying that he'd rather have his precious little daughter dead than (supposedly) promiscuous), one dude sent off for torture, some lower-class bashing... yeah, I think Joss Whedon could give Much Ado the image it deserves. (Hint: Not Really Funny. And I say that as someone who adores Benedick and Beatrice.)
