Refrigerator Syndrome in the way that a lot of the time it is like "how can I make Sadness and Stuff Happen?" "KILL SOMEBODY!" where it is not really weighted much in the story? The ones that most worked for me the way he intended were Wash and Joyce, anyway, which I guess were mostly Oh Look Death Is Unexpected! and not much about making Character X do grief a lot. Well you could argue about Joyce, but The Body never looked like a plot device to me.
