Please tell me you've watched this show, it's on Netflix. This is directed by Joss Weldon who also did Firefly. Great show. Hope to wrap this up this evening. The premise is to be able to wipe a "dolls" mind and replace it w/ another personality. While there is a episode theme, it builds on itself as the show progresses. At least for me, this is highly recommended.

I was thinking the same thing, although it no longer exists under that name IIRC.

I watched a few episodes when it was on Fox right after The Sara Conner Chronicles or whatever it was called.

I miss Thee Dollhouse and the The Dollhouse television show was well. :D Actually miss the Sara Conner Chronicles the most, I personally thought it was the best thing on TV at the time, but I'm a Sci-Fi geek. The whole premise of the show had a lot to offer especially for someone like me who holds The Terminator in such high regard. The Terminatrix character of Summer Glau war remarkable from a science fiction perspective I thought similar to the also canceled before its time Caprica series prequel to Battlestar where the human character Zoe was becoming the first Cylon. In both cases the exploration of the concept of artificial beings becoming sentient and self-aware was very cool and cut short by series cancellation. :( Dollhouse was very good too, but more eye candy than proper science fiction.

Agreed, there is some eye candy in the show, especially in the first season. What I liked was the writing and typical Joss Weldon directing. I thought the dialog was very good. The ending show was a little lame but I liked the concept over all.
