Customer Reviews:
Good Show, we will miss Season Three
I don't have anything negative to say about Dollhouse. It is a kick ass show. The cast is spell bounding and well placed. Everyone is deep into their personalities. They acted well even through having their brains wiped out twice an episode. There is a lot of audience that gets the show; for us, it is a treat like candy. Josh's show, Eliza, Tahmoh, etc. will all be missed.

Joss Rocks!
I love all of Joss Whedon's work. The only thing I would suggest is don't watch the last episode that never aired called "Epita 1" and on the last season "Epita 2". I didn't like them. Otherwise I love the whole show. I will be buying Season 2 when it comes out.

One of the best science-fiction series made
This is the first season of one of the best sci-fi TV series that I've seen. This series story telling stile requires you to think, remember and enjoy sci-fi puzzles. It all seems like a big conspiracy theory. If you enjoy this kind of filmography, story line... then you'll enjoy Dollhouse.

The BD quality is as good as it gets nowadays. I've had some little issues playing back BD 2 and 3 on couple BD models (Sharp BD-HP21U and Insignia ND-BRDVD) but it is just a long time to load the menu, after that there are no problems.

In this product you get all episodes of the TV series, plus the never aired (that I can remember) pilot that gives you some information about who everything started for "Echo" (the main character of the series [Eliza Dushku] in the dollhouse), and you'll get an extra episode (like an "epilogue" to the series) in what seems to be an aftermath to some sort apocalyptical event of mind control (or maybe uncontrolled minds should we say?). This episode fits before the last episode of the series (in season 2 and last).

Too bad that "Fox Network" decided to cancel the series prematurely just during season 2. At least they managed to finish it somehow rapidly and deliver an fast tracked, but with sense, end to the story.

Gets better after a few episodes
Quite enjoyable series. It starts quite interesting, but gets even better after a few episodes. By the end you can't wait to see Series 2.

Amazing Software, Wrong OS
I imagine that at some point Joss Whedon had the same kind of epiphany that the Wachowskis had when thinking up The Matrix: What about a world in which minds were less real than bodies, in which people could be programmed for good or ill, yet a world in which humans at their core (whatever that means) began to resist? It's the perfect tale for a society in the thick of the information revolution and looking towards transhuman possibilities. After the demise of his ingenious series, Firefly, I'm sure Whedon understood the possibility of this show. Unfortunately, he couldn't pull it off. But, now cancelled after the second season, it's worth watching simply to try to figure out how it could have worked. Here are my suggestions.

1) Get some philosophers on the writing staff. The Dollhouse gets into metaphysical thickets that go pretty deep: What is human nature? How does one speak of the soul-body problem after quantum physics? Is libertarian freedom able to be reconceived as an ethical good? What is authenticity? Can human identity be upheld in multiple space-time locations? Whedon and crew manage to broach a number of topics, but seem to be treading water at times. Why not bring on philosopher Derek Parfit as a consultant? (It would have been helpful to doublecheck some things with specialists too, such as The Dollhouse's fantastic claim that muscle memory resides solely in the brain.) As a result, some themes which could have been momentous ended up feeling sophomoric or superficial.

2) Gut the cast. I really wanted this line-up to work. But with a show like this you're asking each of the actives (the programmed "dolls") to assume dozens of identities without surrendering a believable substratum of a personality, which Eliza Dushku, bless her heart, can't pull off. Actually, most of the dolls do fine, and Alan Tudyk (Alpha) is solid. The bigger problem lies with other primaries. Paul (Tahmoh Penikett) is over the top; Topher (Fran Kranz) needs more believable writing; Mr. Dominic (Reed Diamond) needed to be sent to the attic earlier. A notable exception was Adelle DeWitt, who played an award-worthy role as lonely Adelle.

3) Get some people with cajones to stand up to Joss. The man is a genius, but he very much needs to have a few subgeniuses to stand beside him and say, "Dude, it's a great idea, but we need to make it sound less... Joss." The dude summons a kind of melodramatic haze over whatever he does. In this case, I suspect Dushku helped enable it. O, that Joss would work alongside someone he didn't like. Then maybe we faithful viewers would see an epic series, and maybe not have our hearts broken again by another cancellation.
