Dollhouse

[ArnoldBabar]

Anybody else watching this? I Tivo'd the first one, just because after "Firefly" anything Joss Whedon does is worth at least a look, and it's surprisingly good. There are a lot of directions they can go with it.

Surprised Fox didn't give it more of a push. I'd bet the vast majority of people don't even know it's on.

Finally, I'm in the majority. What's it about?

 

[BYH]

It's yet more non-Pantera programming. You wouldn't be interested.

 

[pallister]

That's so funny.

 

[ArnoldBabar]

You're not only in the majority, Pall, you're in the vast majority, which sounds even cooler.

It's probably very good. But if I watch it and like it, I cross the line from "guy who likes a couple Joss Whedon shows" over to "Joss Whedon fan."

I can't cross that line and look myself in the mirror in the morning.

Or you could just say you're watching it for Eliza Dushku.

And that's never a bad thing.

My family were huge Buffy and Firefly fans, Whedon is a fellow alumnus of Wesleyan, and, as noted, there was Ms. Dushku.
So I gave the show my best shot. Sorry, just doesn't do it for me. Maybe if it weren't on Friday...

I clicked on this hoping it would be about Henrik Ibsen's A Doll's House.

Epic Fail. I'm full of it.

Huh? Not until after Firefly? Anything Whedon did was worth a look even before Firefly.

I don't mean literally chronologically after, just that because he created one of my all-time favorites I'll take a look at whatever he does.

 

[Riddick]

Anyone still watching this? A buddy got me hooked late in the spring, and now it looks like it's gonna get canceled.

 

[Rockbottom]

I thought this thread was about Thee Dollhouse chain of, ahem, men's establishments. Carry on.

[Evil ... Thy name is Orville Redenbacher!!]

I thought this might be a high class Henrik Ibsen thread.

There aren't enough seconds in the world for me to properly express my love to Ms. Dushku.

Her career needs to sink to the level where she starts doing movies straight to Cinemax.

Fox has sent Dollhouse to The Attic, but will run all of the rest of this year's 13 episodes starting Dec. 4. Cancellation order came in the middle of shooting for the 11th episode, giving Whedon time to tie up the loose ends. He says he is "off to pursue Internet ventures/binge drinking."

And curses to them for not showing Epitaph 1, you have to buy the season 1 DVD.

Still haven't watched a second of season 2, just sitting on the tivo, waiting for the entire season to be recorded, so I can have a giant nerd marathon.

They'll burn off the remaining episodes in two hour blocks, so be prepared, if you care.
