Usually I like to sit back and think about things before I talk about it - but like the rest of the internet, I want to talk Dollhouse now.
This past Friday, the first episode of Joss Whedon’s new Dollhouse television series aired, and I was watching unsure of what to expect. Well, that’s a bit of a lie - this is what I was expecting:
- some ground rules for the Dollhouse ‘Verse defined
- rudimentary information on the main character
- a rough sense of what sort of organization the “Dollhouse” is
- a glimpse of what life as a doll is like
I even prepared myself for Joss television series-openers. I re-watched the first episodes of Firefly, Buffy, and Angel this week just to get a sense of what we were in for when 9PM finally hit on Friday night. This allowed me to temper my expectations somewhat, and I think it was for the better - because I really have to say that, with the exception of the 2hr opener for Firefly, Joss shows can start off a little bumpy all in the name of setting up the show’s landscape for the series.
