The Dollhouse came back for a second season, but will it come back for a third?

We have some nice plot development as expected. You have some nice character development as well with Echo especially. We now know that no one ever truly leaves the Dollhouse, unless you count Alpha. We also now know that the Dollhouse has politicians in their pockets and they have bigger plans than just filling fantasy, which is nice to see.

We now for the first time had a peek at another Dollhouse and were introduced to some of the characters in that location. In all the episodes are getting better, but I feel that this show does miss out on some of the pacing of some of Joss Whedon’s other shows. I also personally miss the rip roaring humour that has been a trademark of many of his other shows.

I would like to see more plot and character development. I think they made good use of Victor in the most recent episode and I would like to see more of that continue. All in all the Dollhouse is a good show, but it’s a show that you have to watch to stay tuned in and aware of what is happening. It’s not a one episode here and there like other shows. I think with the Dollhouse you either get it or you don’t. The question is how many will get it?

Did I fall asleep?

I love the concept for the new series. For those not familiar with dollhouse. The concept is about people who have memories implanted into their minds and then they go out and fulfill whatever mission they are programmed for. They could be programmed to be someone’s romantic partner, an assassin, a hero, etc. Once the mission is finished they go back to the Dollhouse, and all their memories are erased, until it’s time for the next mission.

Sounds far fetched right? The technology exists right now for creating characters such as this, and individuals that can be thus controlled. An ad came out the other day saying that bad memories will soon be a thing of the past, think sunshine of the spotless mind.

Even if the concept sounds scary, it’s very much a real possibility, and I look forward to seeing Joss and team tangle this sort of concept in typical Joss fashion.

Heading up the cast are two former favs. Amy Acker, and Eliza Dushku. The show started Feb 13, 2009, and has been approved for 13 episodes.

There have been a few remakes. Terminator the series came out since the last time people were at Scribes Corner. For years I had hoped that they would find a way to do this, and I guess they did.

The new V series is due out I think next year. I really liked the original series and it will be good to see it back on the air.

Joss Whedon creator of BTVS created the comic books, and now he also has a new series called Dollhouse with Eliza Dushku (Faith) and a few other cast members.

So it seems that if you give it time, some of your old favorites do come back in one capacity or another.
