Dollhouse

Season 1 of this show is great. It's dark and it's powerful and it's unique and it's interesting, but it's pretty slow moving and you can find yourself wanting more. Then came the season 1 finale "Epitaph One", and my like of this show turned into obsession. Then came the AMAZING season 2. Every single episode in season 2 is a great one. In fact most episodes don't seem like they're from a TV show at all, they seem like short movies! The acting is phenomenal in season 2, and season 2 is just so freaking smart! Tell me the Chaucer stuff in "Belle Chose" wasn't brilliant, or the camera angles in that episode weren't extremely beautiful... the pair of episodes "The Public Eye" and "The Left Hand" are the most genius I've ever seen on TV! They are so edgy and provocative and kept me entertained the full way through. I can go on and on about how good season 2 is honestly! And Eliza man, Eliza!!! She holds her own with the other unbelievable actors in season 2 and even manages to outshine them on more than one occasion. Yeah she definitely proves that she is worthy of headlining her own show in season 2.

Fantastic. Compelling. Brilliant. A complete package. Well connected episodes and a very satisfying ending. I can't say enough about Dollhouse. Eliza Dushku was amazing as she flawlessly play many characters. Fran Kranz was the anchor as he played a well developed character. I fell in love with Dichen Lachman ... beautiful, exotic, wonderful actor ... I just don't understand why her career has languished, she deserves more. Highly recommended.

Any Joss Whedon fan knows that he creates a full world. Beginning to end and at first he gives you the smallest glimpse. So the first season you don't really grasp his concept, but as it goes along you get pulled into that world.

The psychological background and action sequences keep getting better. I've fallen in love with the characters. The story line makes me gasp with amazement. The concept grows and just boggles my mind.

The first season was the slow start, thus far the second season is amazing. Now that I've watch season one and most of season two I find myself totally immersed in the show. I look forward to it being on for an hour every week... and when the episode is over I'm in TV shock.

And then I want more!!!

It took a few weeks, I don't have the time to binge watch, but I finished watching the 2 seasons. I have the same question, why in blazes was this canceled.

An innovative show that will generally keep your eyes glued to the TV. Excellent scripts & direction. Eliza shines as Echo.

Not a lot of episodes but highly recommended.

This show is amazing. And dark. Very, very dark. This has clearly made many people uncomfortable. However, Helo, sorry, Paul, essentially spells out the message in the pilot: when seemingly helpful technology is created someone finds a way to use it for evil.

I don't believe the show makes any apologies for the people at the Dollhouse. I believe it shows the ways those people rationalize what they are doing so they can sleep at night.

This show is a great vessel for exploring the nature of the soul and personality. What makes people who they are. Despite being wiped and implanted over and over, Echo retains some of her Caroline-ness. This show is not ultimately about "the world's oldest profession," but about what makes humans human. If you can't get past the creepy paying for people, and, yes, the singer episode, then this is really not your show.

And, speaking as a woman, I really don't find it all that offensive. I'm actually not all that certain why I should. The dolls are of both sexes and I see a strong female lead, may Whedon continue to put them on television.

I highly recommend this show. Get past the first few episodes (which Fox tinkered with) and see the brilliance beyond.
