Love IGN's review of tonights episode. It has a photo of two of the Dolls, with "Shall our episodes be more consistent now?" underneath.
Jossverse 1: Emotional Resonance & Rocket Launchers
TV, movies, web media--this thread is the home for any Joss projects that don't already have their own threads, such as Dr. Horrible.
And I've never seen the damn show, not even a second of it.
Fay's an active! And possible a Cylon! And a Skrull!
All true.
Wow, so far I'm really liking Sierra's real personality.
Amy Acker's the mole?
From a character perspective, I'm not sold on the doctor being the mole. From a meta perspective -- Joss hired an actress he had worked with for years, so I have to assume he had some sort of important role in mind for her.
Victor and Sierra are too cute, and Adelle is entirely too smug, so I fear that their attempts here will be an exercise in futility.
Why did they have to put November is such a dull outfit compared to the other escaping actives?
"Not anymore." I'm kind of loving this episode.
I love their real personalities so much more than this blank doll-ness. I agree with everyone who said that it's hard to get hooked on a show where not only do the characters change each week, but our main characters are practically nonentities.
It's official, Victor and Sierra are my faves.
Really enjoyed the immediate display of distinct personalities when the five wake up. Victor being all military and Echo/Caroline being all anti-animal-testing.
I remember watching/listening to the Equilibrium commentary, and how it was noted that the characters weren't totally blank, even though the incomplete lack of emotion was contrary to the world-building, because the director knew that emotionless characters would be boring to watch for two hours. So, there's that inherent problem with Dollhouse, and yet, with Victor, I totally dig it. Perhaps because the actor doesn't play it as blank, but child-like, and his connection to Sierra doesn't hurt.
And omg, OTP!!! Enver Gjokaj is so an actor to watch out for. I want to smish him in all his states of identity.
