So, another week of a scantily-clad woman who was asking for it? It, this week happens to be death, instead of rape, but basically the same old, same old.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
And really, REALLY boring.
This was the episode where I begged Tim to shut it off after twenty minutes. Later, he said we only watched ten minutes.
Poor bean. I feel awful hating something he's involved in.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
Well that was...bad.
"Music Box" is that a shout out to "Magic Box"
Nope, that's the name of an actual venue in LA (Henry Fonda Music Box). My fave place to see shows.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
Previously On Dollhouse - a load of scenes we haven't actually seen.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I love the progression of How Little Clothing Can We Put On The Female Actors And Still Get Away With It.
Srsly. The lead singer's outfit made Echo's episode 1 dress look like a burqa.

I cannot imagine even a Beyonce-famous singer making enough money to be able to afford the Dollhouse's fees for a short-term bodyguard. Echo's per-hour rate would be higher than hers!
I don't think that she was paying, the company was. Also, Biz seemed to have a relationship with DeWitt

In all fairness, it was totally appropriate for a Britney-like character.

Our wings are not tired.
Well, I progressed from being outraged to being bored. Not the direction I was hoping for.

Also, perhaps I was not as outraged since the terrorizing psycho fan woman killer thing wasn't depicted as believably as the rape thing. No, I wasn't afraid for them at any time.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie
Huh. I agree with the anvils, but I liked last night's a lot better than the other two. I especially liked that moment in the end where it's clear that Echo is started to remember pieces of her many lives, but--more interestingly--is conscious of the fact that she shouldn't let anyone else know that she's remembering. Potential for something interesting there.
It was also nice to not just see her out having sex with someone.

Oh, I know. It's just that the show isn't really racking up points for the way it *doesn't* exploit women's bodies, you know?
