Why I Watch Dollhouse

Hello all. I apologize for the long absence. It's the product of a full-time job, a part-time writing job and a lot of time spent working on a certain pitch that may or may not end up being totally awesome. As I've said before, I'll try to pop in as much as I can and update you on all the wonders of the television and film worlds.

For now, check out this incredibly awesome fan push for Dollhouse. It's all hands on deck and the battle for Dollhouse has long since started. It's us (the fans) against Fox, who, I must admit, has put in more than their fair share (and much more than expected) to keeping Dollhouse on the air. We all know the show has its flaws, but that's not to say that it won't eventually find its footing. As ever, we are hopeful.

So, check out this video and give your support to Dollhouse.

San Diego Comic-Con Day 2

Ok, take a seat, relax and enjoy as I walk you through (with every boring detail) the wonderful world of the Con...

There's something you have to understand about Comic-Con, or any Con for that matter. There are basically two parts of a Con. One part consists of the panels. Basically, you stand in line for about 2 hours for one room (one BIG room), making sure to get into line at least 3-4 hours before the panel you want to see (just in case), then you make your way into the room and STAY there. Luckily, they do not empty a room after each panel, so essentially you could stay in one room all day long and just keep watching panel after panel. That's pretty much what we did.

The other part of a Con are the Exhibition halls. This is where all the artists, the studios, and all the miscellaneous sellers hawk their goods. It's like a medieval marketplace, only with so many shiny toys and trinkets, for a moment you know what it feels like to be a dragon (yes, only if dragons REALLY existed) and you want nothing more than to gather up all the shiny and horde it away forever and ever. But I digress, where was I? Oh yeah, the exhibition halls, shiny things. Anyway, there is just SO much to look at, you just end up running into people every five seconds because you are looking anywhere but right in front of you. It's pretty much what I envision when I think about the Mad Hatter having a very big yard-sale. It's a madhouse, seriously. Not only that, but if you could walk around for hours, you'd get bags and bags full of FREE stuff and there's nothing more we Americans love more than FREE stuff. But free stuff often comes with a price, even though, you know, it's supposed to be free! There were multiple "free stuff" riots happening all the time and in every corner of the hall. Besides the infamous "Megan Fox" riot, the "Free New Moon Poster" riot was the worst. Luckily, I threw some elbows and got me a nice big'un. What? I like free stuff too!

You could spend hours upon hours in these cavernous halls and never get the chance to see everything. If you tried, you'd probably get lost and never see the light of day again. Unfortunately, I had little to no time for that fun adventure. I came to the conclusion that you have to pick which part of the Con you want to see more because four days is just not enough time to do both, the panels and the exhibition halls. If I ever go again, I would attend far less panels and spend more of my time walking around the exhibition hall with all the cool people (ie: the Storm Troopers, the Dharma Initiative Recruits and Batman). Another aspect of the halls, which I missed out on, were the autograph signings. But more on that later.

We decided to make our second day (Friday) the "Sleep In and Miss All the Good Film Panels" day. Which means I missed the WB film panel, which included The Box (with James Marsden and Cameron Diaz), Jonah Hex (with Josh Brolin and Megan Fox), Sherlock Holmes (with Robert Downey) and many others. Not to mention the 9 panel. In retrospect, it was a bad decision, but you just can't see everything and our beds wouldn't be denied. We also missed The Guild panel, The Prisoner panel (Jim Caviezel, yum!) and the Battlestar Galactica panel. A bunch of ouchies there. The main panels we were shooting for on Friday were the Bones and Dollhouse/Joss panels. The Bones panel started at 3pm, so we got in line around 1pm-ish. As per usual, we were in the room a hour later and just in time for the 24 panel. For my part, I am not a 24 fan. I've never watched the series, but I have seen a couple episodes here and there. However, I was excited about this panel, due to the attendance of Katee Sackoff (Battlestar Galactica) and Freddie Prinze Jr, not to mention, how can you not love Kiefer? It turned out to be a great panel. Here are some tidbits:

Favorite Moment:

Freddie (answering a question): Well, my wife and I...

Whole room explodes in yells and clapping. It's like an ocean of sound all around you. Freddie chuckles.

Freddie: Oh yeah, I forgot she was big here...

Whole room explodes again.

Scoop/Spoilers:

- This seasons' theme is: "Peace...but don't worry, we'll still blow things up".

- Jack Bauer is in a rare happy place. This won't last long.

- Also, something about someone trying to assassinate the President of the U.N. I think.

- Freddie Prinze's character is Junior Jack. He is also engaged to Katee Sackoff's character.

- Katee Sackoff's character knows more about computers than Chloe. Apparently Chloe's reactions to this are very funny. *shrug*

- There's a new CTU. It's pretty and...new. *shrug*

Kiefer was a great panelist and Katee looked beautiful. Mary Lynn Rajskub did not look happy to be there, but I hear that's just the way she looks. Apparently she's very funny, but all I saw were frowns. *Shrug*

The Bones panel held a bad surprise, but one we were getting used to. David Boreanaz wasn't able to make it, but he did send in a very funny, very long, rambling video to his Comic-Con fans. It was pretty entertaining and as usual, he looked good enough to eat. This panel turned out to be the smallest one we attended during the Con. It was only Emily Deschanel and Hart Hanson, the creator. Funnily enough, it was one of the most entertaining panels we saw. Emily was absolutely adorable. She was so funny and charming, I almost fell in love with her myself.

Favorite Moment:

When Emily and Hart decided they should spread over the huge panel table and Hart went to the end and Emily to the middle, with the panel moderator on the other side. It was hilarious. Then they thought it was too awkward and moved back to their original positions.

Scoop/Spoilers:

- There MIGHT be a Booth/Bones kiss in the premiere episode. It was scripted, but they won't say whether it was actually shot.

- The premiere opens 2 weeks after Booth wakes up in the hospital and there is still awkwardness between the two. Bones has left the country, on a dig or something, in order to avoid Booth for awhile.

- Questions about the non-sex scene and it's impact upon Booth's psyche will be at least touched upon in the early episodes.

After Bones came one of the few panels I was REALLY looking forward to, Dollhouse and Joss Whedon. Joss just strolls out on stage, not announcing himself at all and with no panel moderator. Seriously, this man needs no moderator. He's good, just as he is. Anyway, he circles the stage a little, letting the crowd rile itself up and boy did it ever! After a couple moments, he welcomed us and set us up for the screening of the "lost" Dollhouse episode, "Epitaph One", that we were about to see. We watched it, and even though I often heard Katie beside me, whispering that she had no idea what was going on, it was a great episode and I really enjoyed it. After the screening, Joss came back out and introduced Eliza Dusku and she joined him on stage. What followed was a study on the charm and wit of one of mine most beloved show-creators. Eliza was nice and laid back but her presence was completely shadowed by Joss himself, who couldn't say one thing without the audience either laughing, clapping or hollering or all three. He was everything I believe he would be and more. He was entirely gracious toward us for being there and supporting him for all these years, completely humble and completely wonderful. He talked Dollhouse, Dr. Horrible and his projects with Dark Horse, including Buffy Season 8. Eventually, Eliza commented that she had Twittered (it's a verb now!) some of her friends and they wanted to come out on stage. A minute later, Fran Kranz and Dichen Lachman, two other Dollhouse cast members, walked onstage and finished up the panel with Joss and Eliza.

Favorite Moment:

When a fan came up to the microphone and said/asked: "You killed Penny, you bastard! Why do you keep killing my favorite characters"?! Joss just laughed and said evilly, "Because I love making you suffer"!

Scoop/Spoilers:

- "Epitaph One" is an futuristic episode. I forget the exact date, but basically, it's where our character MIGHT end up one day. Next season and any consecutive seasons, will all work towards that future, with our characters either following the path to that future, or changing the future that we saw in the episode. It's a mystery how they got there and its a mystery how it all ends too. Both sides are open-ended as of now.

The Dollhouse panel was the last for the day and ended around 7pm-ish. Here's where we get to the horror of the exhibition hall. For the first time, I dragged both the girls down to the hall, which closed at 8pm. We had an hour to walk around, which is equivalent to about one second, in Con World. It turned out, for Katie and Tina, even one second was too much. The crowds were horrible. You couldn't walk one foot without brushing up against someone else. I could tell immediately that Tina and Katie were not happy to be there. We could get nowhere near the WB or Fox booths (the WB booth was giving away free Chuck bags and the girls were NOT going to wait in that line). The thing about the hall is, you can't think straight. It's like being in a hurricane of colors, sounds, objects, people and I am not talking about the middle, calm part of a hurricane. I'm talking the windy, electric, flying side parts. So, I didn't even think that the reason people were standing around the Fox booth was that Joss and Eliza were expected there for autograph signing. Yeah, DUH! Smack myself on the forehead for that one! By the time we figured it out, there was a mass of people surrounding the booth and only 30 minutes before the hall closed. Tina and Katie dragged me out, much to my tearful dismay. If I regret anything from this trip (besides the Bryan Fuller incident), it was not getting to meet Joss Whedon when he was only 20 feet from me.

We left the Con and headed to dinner and there concluded our second day at Comic-Con.

Day 3 and 4, coming soon!

The Thing About Dollhouse

Spoiler Warning!!!!!

Maybe it was the long, relaxing shower or the slightly melancholy thoughts of old friends that I have become disconnected with over time, or perhaps the combination of both, but it was Saturday morning after watching the newest Dollhouse episode that I finally realized, or maybe accepted, what it was that Dollhouse was missing; the glitch that was making the show feel hazy and unattainable.

It came to me as both simple and obvious, but it was a simple and obvious truth that had never existed in any Joss Whedon show. That's probably why I missed it in the first place. In fact, it is a staple, a wide-sweeping signature of any preceding Whedon show that is the very thing that is making Dollhouse...less. I am speaking of it's lack of deep, meaningful and solid relationships.

I have heard some people complain that Dollhouse hasn't contained much of that witty-Whedon dialogue that we love so much...but I don't think that's the real problem. Even if we did have that dialogue, no matter how great, it would mean little without the relationships to support it. If we look at it from that perspective, it's perhaps that very lack of character connection that is at fault for our missing dialogue.

This lack of connection, for the characters and therefore the audience, is plainly displayed in both Paul Ballard, our one and only constant outside the Dollhouse, and within all the actives and employees in the Dollhouse. The reason behind this lack in all the characters of the Dollhouse is evident by the very definition of the show; it's about people being constantly wiped clean of personality, uploaded with a new one, wiped clean again, uploaded again with yet a different personality, and so on. There is no constant here, nothing to cling to and we find ourselves, much like Echo at times, searching for a familiar face, feeling or instinct to guide us towards the safety and comfort that deep attachment can bring. But as much as we enjoy watching these obviously deep and complex characters (Topher is one of my personal favorites), it's hard to love them or love to hate them or sympathize with them on any deep emotional level. The ones who aren't dolls (Topher, Claire, Adelle, etc) live, work and breathe around the dolls and since their work relationships tend towards the creepy (Topher/Claire) or just the cold (Adelle/everyone else), they too lack any deep and abiding relationships to support them. The one exception I will list here is Boyd. He is the one character I find that I can feel for, that I can connect to more deeply than any other character, even Echo herself. It is his concern and care, what can only been seen as fatherly (Watcher-ly) affection and worry, towards Echo and his clear outlook on what is right and what is wrong that allows for such a character-viewer bond in this one and only case. He is also the one person that Echo finds that she can cling to, even in moments of fading memory and personal chaos ("Target", "Briar Rose"). This also helps pave the viewers' way to seeing Boyd as someone they can trust and relate to. Unfortunately, Boyd has seen very little screen time lately, not to mention that his removal as Echo's handler has distanced her and us from him, causing our tentative connect to become even looser.

As for Paul Ballard, he voiced this problem himself in the latest episode, "Briar Rose": "My whole life, my whole life isn't real". The one character that should have been our constant, should have been the person to forge the more likely lasting relationships, is instead surrounded by dolls. Every relationship he's had (except the rare professional one), every deep conversation he's been apart of, has been with a doll. If say, we had some back-story or some time with him that wasn't related to the Dollhouse, we could have the material to forge some connection to him. But we don't have that material and ever since we've known Paul Ballard he has been lost and confused and so we, the viewers, have been lost and confused with him. He has no anchor in this chaos, now even more so since discovering Echo's resistance to being rescued and his soon to be finding that even his reluctant co-rescuer is in fact a cold-blooded, psycho killer. His constantly unstable reality causes us to keep our distance from him emotionally, no matter how stunning he looks without a shirt on. Also, his righteousness is less touching than it should be, considering we don't really understand yet WHY he is so gung-ho about finding Caroline and bringing down the Dollhouse. Instead of chivalrous, he comes off as slightly looney-toons in his desperation and blind need.

I have never come across this problem with Joss' shows before so I find it difficult to express how I feel about Dollhouse. With Buffy, it was her relationships with her friends, family and Watcher that made her special, that allowed her to live long past the time that any other Slayer had ever survived. All of Xander's witticisms, all of Angel's dead-pan lines, all of Buffy's sarcastic retorts; they would have all been meaningless without the support of the relationships around them. The same goes for the characters in Angel - Wesley's dark transformation (one of the best ever on television) would never have been possible without the loss of his friends and eventually the loss of his one true love (Fred) - and goes for Firefly as well. The relationships do not revolve around the story - the story revolves around the relationships. The story comes from the relationships. And that is why they were great shows. And that is what Dollhouse is missing.

Don't get me wrong. I love Dollhouse. I love it for it for the fun, I love it for the Tahmoh, I love it for the potential and I love it for trying. What we need more than anything is a second season. We need the time for character and relationship development and we need the time to correct the story flow, which has been choppy - I'm sure due to network interference . We need that chance. Even though it's a chance in Hell, I am choosing to go against my nature and look upon this chance optimistically. If Joss has taught me anything in the 13 years he's been apart of my life, it is to laugh in the face of any "chance in hell" situation...and then hide until it goes away.

Scoop o' News

I begin this post with a piece of devastating news. Andy Hallet, who played Lorne on Angel, died Sunday night from heart failure. Lorne was a fan favorite on Angel and one it's most endearing and colorful characters (literally). Personally, I believe the show was at it's best when he was on screen and he was a key part of some of the best episodes. He is in our thoughts and he will be be sorely missed.

For more information, go here.

Here is a small scene from Season 2 of Angel, featuring the great talents of Andy Hallet.






In other, lighter news, the premiere for True Blood season 2 has been confirmed for June 14th. Some new photos from the second season have been posted online and they are getting me seriously keyed up. Bring on the gore, sex and forbidden love!

For more pics, go here.


Alyson Hannigan and Alexis Denisof are the proud parents of a baby girl, Satyana Denisof! She was born March 24th, giving her the same birthday as her mother. Congrats to the new mommy and daddy!
Side note: Not that I don't LOVE Alyson and Alexis, but seriously, what is WITH celebrities and crazy baby names? It's like the two just go hand in hand. Sheesh.

TV Review


What's Getting Good:

1) Dollhouse. Since the first episodes, which were ok but lacked the tell-tale Joss greatness, I have held onto the hope that we would soon start to see a story that pulled deeply to us, one like Buffy's story and Angel's story and Malcolm Reynolds' story. Even like Dr. Horrible's story. As was expected, my faith has been rewarded and Dollhouse is now blowing me away each week. I cannot wait to see more of it, especially when it comes to the obviously damaged, but incredibly intriguing eye-candy that is Paul Ballard. Ummmm...Tahmoh.

2) Heroes. Yes, I know, I know. Most people are SO over this show. But if you were EVER going to give it a second chance, now is the time. Bryan Fuller is officially back on the writing team, the story is starting to level out and our characters are slowly coming back to themselves. Sylar is finally over his daddy issues and back in the Fugitives game and just as I suspected, he is teaming up with Danko. What was unexpected in this development is the hilarity that the two evil masterminds bring to their evil plans. Who would have thought those two dark and sinister characters could bring out the chuckles?

3) Supernatural. We are finally back to the real struggle. Angels vs demons vs humans. The "been there, done that" filler episodes have been benched and we are now getting back to the nitty-gritty, ploughing inevitably towards the season's final battle between our favorite Winchester brothers and also an unknown character death. Let me just say, if it's Bobby, I'm writing a strongly worded email to the writers.

What's Losing It:

1) Castle. I'm not 100% decided on this show yet and it's still entertaining enough but something new needs to be introduced into the formula to keep this show from turning boring and repetitive. As you know, I'm all for Nathan Fillion and his performance is as witty and adorable as usual, but the truth's the truth.

What's New:

1) Kings. So far, so good. I'm not really one for politics and that's certainly what this show seems to be centering on, but even that doesn't keep me from enjoying it. It has a unique way of spinning an unoriginal idea (the noble man/soldier against a corrupt city/government) and making it seem original, mostly due to the fact that it looks like our world, it feels like our world, but it's not our world. But it COULD be our world. It contains surprisingly deep and complex characters and behind them all lurk dark and mysterious secrets. It's compelling, interesting and not without it's own baby-faced, handsome hero.

2) Cupid. It premieres tonight so I'll keep you updated. The main reason I am giving this show a try is because it's Rob Thomas' (Veronica Mars) baby and I know what that man can do. So far the reviews haven't been great, but I'm willing to see for myself. Stay tuned.

Dollhouse - So Far...

So, perhaps I am being presumptuous (ok, make that 'probably'), but I'm guessing you might be wondering my thoughts on Dollhouse. I followed the development and progress of this show since the very first whiff of it hit the Internet breeze. I, along with everyone else, know of its interesting origin story and its subsequent pre-production and production mishaps. Because there has been so much buzz on the show, its problems, its creators and its freaked-out fans, I've avoided writing too much about it. Also, via the stockpile of reviews for the first couple episodes, it's been reported time and again that the episodes slowly get better and I wanted the chance to watch at least a couple before committing my opinion to the World Wide Web. Since the first two have aired, I suppose it's time to do just that...

As stated in many other reviews, the second episode, "Target", was much improved from the pilot, "Ghost". The pilot was still good and it definitely left me wanting to watch more, but it really did seem to lack Joss' unique voice. There were tid-bits, here and there, and the morally vague and slightly creepy Topher is without a doubt a Joss original creation but the episode had a "pilot template" feel that overpowered Joss' distinct touch. That aspect of the episode was disappointing, but it had the network's grimy hands all over it and the result wasn't exactly unexpected. However, again I must press, the pilot was capturing (or was that just Eliza's shockingly short shirt-turned-dress?) and if Joss' intention with the last scene was to totally creep the audience out, then he succeed with ten gold stars. I had to keep myself from whispering throughout both episodes, "Who is that masked man?" and I certainly didn't expect such a mystery starting from the very first episode.

Speaking of the devil and taking a quick side-road: Who IS that masked man, er....naked man who left two dead bodies in his creepy, Indian-style wake? Luckily, the very next episode hands us a suspect on a lovely silver platter. Who's all for the naked, liking-of-the-Indian-style man being the dead-but-not-really-dead Alpha? I'm totally into that but there's one problem with my theory. If, when Alpha went rogue, he left Echo alive whilst carving up everyone else, why would he then hire the creepy boyscout to hunt down and kill Echo? Perhaps as a test, to see what Echo is capable of? To see if she's maybe something more than just another ordinary doll? Maybe.

Ok, back to the main road: If the pilot episode left me with a slight interest to see more, last week's episode left me with an raging desire to speed up time so that I can get to this Friday and see more. "Target" had a much more Joss-like feel and we were once again reminded why Joss is our Master. I love how we weren't made to wait long before we got some Dollhouse back-story and also the reason why the beautiful Amy Acker (love those hat-tricks!), aka Claire Saunders, has scars across her face. A rogue, serial-killer doll is an interesting twist to the show that I wasn't expecting at all. Another great part was the unexpected relationship between Echo and her handler, Boyd. Before that moment, I hadn't realized that I was fearful that Dollhouse would lack those intense, morally gray, complex and passionate relationships that I have long associated with Joss Whedon. "Target" soothed those subconscious fears by giving us a tiny glimpse of how Echo had changed Boyd's original impression of the "empty" dolls and how he'd come to feel about her since that first, indescribably innocent first meeting where Echo was programmed to trust him with her life. It had such a father/daughter feel to it and with myself being a daughter who loves and trusts her father above anyone else, it really hit a heart-chord.

Watching the second episode, I got the feeling that this show is going to be less about the sci-fi, doll-engagements and more about the morally gray practices and people of the Dollhouse and the relationships between them and the outside world. This, of course, was a stupid conclusion to come to, since I should have realized that already. Joss' shows have always been centered on the relationships between the characters and the characters themselves. They are always the best part of his shows and as far as I'm concerned, the reason why he has such a cult following. Joss' characters have always caused me to feel things deeper than any other characters on television. They have made me laugh harder, cry harder, scream harder and think harder than any other characters I have come across in my many years of watching television. I am very much looking forward to that again with Dollhouse.

TV Ramble

Happy Friday all!

So, as many of you know, I work for TNT in Atlanta. Because I do, I feel like it is my professional duty to try out all our new shows. However, I did minor in Journalism, so I also feel like it's my civic duty to report the truth (well, the truth of my own opinion, that is). So, I can only hope I won't be fired for writing this blog post....*Fingers crossed*.

Once I started working for TNT, I decided to stick my head into The Closer. It was one of our highest performing shows and a lot of people enjoyed it, so why not? It's not exactly my favorite genre, as I have never been drawn into procedural dramas like Law & Order, CSI, Cold Case, Without a Trace, etc. Cop shows bore me, it's just that simple. My tastes run more towards the sci-fi, supernatural, horror and romance. Still, I decided to give it a try and it has held my interest up until now. But, I'm sad to report that there are way too many great shows on right now and I've recently given up on The Closer. Sorry, Kyra, I tried.

I also attempted to try on Raising the Bar, but that lasted less time than The Closer. And it only partly had to do with Mark Paul's hair...

Saving Grace is another story. Yes, it has cops and investigations and all that boring stuff...but it also has one of the dirtiest, naughtiest, so-very-entertaining women on TV right now. Not to mention her partner, Ham, who is lovely eye-candy. This show, though not even in the same region as shows like LOST, Heroes, Supernatural, etc, is still very intriguing (I really don't think there is another show on TV like it) and entertaining to watch. Just as an FYI, new episodes start in March.

Getting to my point, two of our new shows, Leverage and Trust Me, show a lot of potential, Leverage especially. We are just starting Trust Me, but I already look forward to each new episode. Leverage, though, is just...great. Leverage is a show I would watch even if I didn't work for TNT. Let's just clarify, the original pull of this show: Christian Kane. If you know me at all, you know I'm a Joss Whedon fan, one of the bigger ones. Therefore, I am a Angel fan also. I first saw Christan Kane on Angel, as the adorably evil Lindsey. Since then, the tiny Texan has been close to my heart, even so close as to make me wander into country music territory (and I DO NOT do country music, people). In case you didn't know, Chris Kane is a lovely and talented singer and guitar player. Anyhow, Christian Kane pulled me in, but it's the actual show that kept my attention. All the actors are great, the plot-lines are exciting, the character are fun and complex and the writing is alternately moving and humorous.

Recently, TNT renewed Leverage for a second season and 15 more episodes. Happily, someone caught the moment on video:



Too cute, right? If you haven't seen it, start watching now, if only for Christian's amazing portrayal of the ass-kicking, knife-fighting, totally sexy Eliot.

On a different network note, some of you may be wondering why I haven't been raving about Dollhouse, what with all the online media attention it's been getting. I'm here now to tell you why. I just don't want to. Take that, Journalism minor! Ok, seriously though, I am SUPER excited about Dollhouse for next week, but it's just one of those show that I want to be a surprise. So much has been said about the production problems, script problems, etc...and I just didn't want to hear about it anymore. Joss knows his shit and I trust him. Heck, I trust that man with my life, let alone with the creation of another amazing TV show. So, no, I won't report on all the recent reviews or post interviews with the cast. If you want that, head over to Whedonesque and they will hit you up with all that jazz. As for me, I'm gonna leap over that ledge blind, with only Joss as my trusty cliff-leaping guide. He's the only guide you'll ever need and that my friends, is the God's honest truth.

Dollhouse

There has been a lot of rumor surrounding the production of this show and most of it is not good. I don't know if I have ever heard about a new show having this much trouble before it has even aired, but leave it to FOX to screw with Joss's stuff. I'm not really sure what to think but I wouldn't be surprised if the whole thing goes under. But, fortunately, I'm sure the network has already spent too much money on it to quit now. We can only hope...

A new promo for the show has just been released so check it out and tune in February 13th and show your Joss support.

Lost Season 5

I could not be more excited about this coming January. Not only does Dollhouse finally premiere, but Lost starts it's fifth season. This show might have lagged a little in previous seasons, but last season made up for any prior mistakes and if this promo is any indication of what next season will be like...we might want to grab our couch helmets and buckle in for a gloriously unpredictable, frustrating, awe-inspiring and totally bumpy ride. I'm ready, are you?

Dollhouse

Ok, so I know I haven't yet mentioned this in any posts, but I am SUPER excited about Joss Whedon's new television show, Dollhouse. It is premiering in January on FOX, so the wait is going to be excruciating, but I think I will survive. For those of you out of the Whedon loop, which I am sure is a great many, here is the trailer for Dollhouse and an interview with Eliza Dushku (who is beyond adorable and who played Faith, in Buffy).
