As Eliza Dushku said in her interview with the Onion AV Club, "Dollhouse" doesn't really become a true "Joss Whedon show" until episode 6, after which it just keeps getting better and better. With this episode it's becoming clear that she... Full review

I was so eager for the new Whedon series (huge Firefly fan) and kind of shocked from the snap judgments everyone was passing on the show before it even aired. I was surprised that even Whedon fans seemed disappointed in the... Full review

I've been watching Dollhouse from the start, and every episode just gets better and better! This one tops them all. Unlike previous episodes, this one deals primarily with the Dollhouse itself, rather than the engagements. My favorite scenes include the two... Full review

We all knew that Whedon had it up his sleeve but was waiting to pull it out. This episode was simply brilliant. You expected four in one episode. This will be the episode that will guide the series from here. I... Full review

I love Joss Whedon and was really looking forward to this show but this is far from his best work. Although the concept is interesting the execution comes off as pretty conventional which I never would have expected. Joss Whedon is... Full review

Does this corny thing come from the same guy that created brilliant Firefly/Serenity and Buffy? Or maybe he just decided to put his name on a sticker of some random show? Come on! Dollhouse has a good and solid premise, which... Full review

As with any new show it takes time to establish the characters and give a reason to get involved with them, you need to know (as with all of Joss Whedon's work) that it does not start out from some cute... Full review

If this hadn't been a Joss Whedon project, I never would have sat through the pilot, let alone two further episodes. I'm a huge Buffy fan, tolerated Angel (mostly because it provided a vehicle for Spike to survive a little longer)... Full review

First, do not have expectations. For everyone who expects "Dollhouse" to give you gifted insights in the often hilarious adolescent struggles of a young vampire slayer, or dazzle you with the hard-boiled witty banter of beloved space-rebels, might be sorely disappointed.... Full review
