Dushku plows into her role with gusto. I've seen three episodes of this strange, mesmerizing show, and it has grown on me.

Good, dirty fun.

Even as Dollhouse sounds like other TV shows and movies, it is also utterly strange, its premise literally ridiculous and intriguingly metaphorical.

The result is a show that his most devoted fans will debate and embrace, and a mass audience just won't get.

Dollhouse isn't awful, but neither is it remarkably good. It's a passable hour of entertainment that shows potential to improve but flails and confuses (and occasionally bores) from the start.

If Dollhouse, a pretentious and risible jumble premiering tonight on that most quixotic of national networks, were a piece of music, it would have to be some sort of funky-junky, hip-hop, rinky-tinky, ragtime madrigal.

To the extent this sounds interesting, it isn't: Half the dialogue seems to have been written for barking dogs, the other half for mewling kittens, and the cast performs accordingly.

Loved this one to bits, it's one of my favourite sci-fi series ever, I've seen it twice, possibly 3 times. Great story, great plot development, great acting, great characters, just the right amount of tech. Too bad they got told to wrap it up fast and had to compress everything they had left into a single second season.
