The 2nd season of the ill-fated and sometimes confusing TV series Dollhouse, created by Joss Whedon and starred Eliza Dushku, is coming to DVD and Blu-ray and is now available for pre-order! And I know that’s good news for all the Joss Whedon or Dollhouse fans out there!
Admittedly Dollhouse was an acquired taste, so to speak where you were either a fan of Whedon or Dushku’s work, or were incredibly patient with this show that had some serious potential, but really, only knocked my socks off a few times during the 2-season run it had on Fox. The subtlety of the writing was where the real gem to the story lay, but sometimes, even for me, I sometimes missed the point because I literally looked away or got distracted by something else in the room. I’m not saying that as a ding, but more of a reference to being the dedicated fan who hung on every word and scene, who truly understood the show.
Not to mention that even though it was less pronounced, Fox still found it fit to move around a few episodes at the front of the first season. I know we’re not really surprised by this, but the fact they caught so much crap from fans for trashing Firefly by doing the same thing, that I didn’t think it could possibly happen again. Silly me!
Alan Tudyk as Alpha, on DOLLHOUSE
On the bright side, once again, we were able to catch some emotional favorites pass through the sets of Dollhouse. I completely enjoyed the fun that Alan Tudyk brought to the series as Alpha but found myself in fond memories watching folks from past shows: Alexis Denisof, Amy Acker, Summer Glau & Felicia Day. For myself, I was introduced to Fran Kranz.
