I don't know if you're a Joss Whedon fan or not, but if you're not familiar, he is the writer and creator of Toy Story, Buffy the Vampire Slayer (movie and show), Angel, Firefly, Serenity, Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, and now Dollhouse. Everything he does is magic!"Dollhouse follows Echo, a "doll" or "Active" for the Dollhouse, an organization which hires out reprogrammable human beings to wealthy clients who use them for a range of purposes, such as sexual encounters and high-risk illegal activities. Echo, like her fellow dolls Victor and Sierra, exists in a child-like blank state, until the programmer uploads her with the skills and memories to make her a whole other human being."
Sadly, the show that's filled with plot-twists and turns is on Friday nights, which is never a good time slot. The silver lining is that it has high DVR numbers. It wasn't picked up for November sweeps, and is in danger of this being its last season. Please, for the sake of all that's good in TV Land, give Dollhouse a shot! We may be able to save it yet!
So many shows are getting canceled now... I haven't watched Dollhouse, though. I guess Friday night is not the optimal spot!
ReplyDeleteI'm a Joss fan, but I've been back and forth on Dollhouse. At the beginning of the first season, it left a bad taste in my mouth (let's watch Eliza Dushku prance around in a different sexy outfit each episode!), but Epitaph One blew my mind and this season's been good! I hope it sticks around.
ReplyDeleteWe don't have cable out where we live so I miss out on a lot of good shows. I will see if Netflix has this particular series!

I was a huge Buffy and Angel fan and I've been planning on renting Dollhouse because, as you said, Friday night is a terrible time slot. Joss Whedon crafts incredible TV shows, I hope this show gets saved!

I'm a huge Joss girl, and I'm just catching up on Season 1 of Dollhouse right now so I can start watching Dollhouse Season 2 and get it some more viewers.
