I don't want to be Eliza(Although I think she's cool, and one of my first fantasy gfs) but if I could be Taffy for one day, it would be my childhood dream. Huh...interesting "Make-A-Wish" plot bunny...would anyone read that fanfic?

Yeah, Sunil. I mean, I love Big Bang, and that show occasionally plays on the fact Penny Is Hot. But, occasionally. Plus, flat out comedy. Plus, she keeps her clothes on. I still can't come up with a single reason why we had braless Eliza in episode 3. It also doesn't help it's parallel to Eliza as a child inside the 'house. I know the show is pushing buttons deliberately, though, but still - I'm a man and it's putting me off the show.

Also, well done to somebody on Twitter who just noticed Adelle has a shortcut to Quake 2 on her desktop.

Alias was predicated on Jennifer Garner being hot just about every week. Leverage usually needs Gina Bellman to turn on the sexy charm every week. But somehow those were about characters, whereas too much on Dollhouse is about Eliza being sexy--in Gray Hour it seemed more about Taffy being sexy, if that hair splits correctly.

My inferrence from the backup singer one was that she was one person with a subliminal imperative.

But how many backup singers can kick ass? They must combine that personality with the fighting skills, right? (although the "bitch you can fire me, but don't think that you can take me" was pure backup singer :) )

I can split that hair, ita. Taffy was playing the part of a stripper, so she had to be sexy during those parts, but once she got down to business, she was less provocative.

And I think your point about characters is key. The problem with Dollhouse is that Eliza doesn't play a consistent character besides Echo, so it seems like all her "hot" characters are EXCUSES for Eliza to be hot rather than anything character-based.

Hey, bonus points to Tim: he doesn't get Eliza naked on Friday. Edit: on the show.

Side note: the little riff that Eliza sang for the "audition" is stuck in my head. Is that a real song, or something that they wrote for the show?

I don't really have a favorite - or non-favorite episode. I did like the caper one , because it was a caper that failed. ( even if it succeeded in getting what they were after) . I'm spending more time trying to figure out the Dollhouse, wondering if any one is really who they are, and watching the actives remember things. I'm still not sure why the Dollhouse exists. Yes, a lot of money comes in, but a whole lot goes out too. I'm thinking it needs a purpose other than money.

Well, many businesses spend large amounts of money to make large amounts of money beth. FOX is a good example. I'm cool with thinking they're purely around to profit. In fact, I think I'd prefer that.

True, I just like a little conspiracy in my TV shows.
