Fred Topel: Eliza Dushku: Dollhouse

I can't wait for that premiere!

I am looking forward to this premier and hopefully long running series. Good luck to all.
Having dated a young lady who was a dominatrix, not while we dated, it will be interesting to see how this portrayed.

I am really really excited. I hope that the timeslot encourages watchers over in the US so that Australia will pick up the series too!!

She is my favorite woman on the planet. I hope the series doesn't suck, because I want to get used to watching her hotness week after week again.

I love Eliza Dushku.

I've been an Eliza Dushku fan for some time now... so I'm super thrilled that she's coming back to network TV... will be watching on Feb 13! Marking my calendar!

Is that a record for shortest interview?

Sounds like an interesting show and I am a big fan of Eliza. I'll be sure to watch for it.

I really wanted to like this show because, like everyone else, I loved Firefly and post-first-season Buffy.


But it's terrible. Everything about it. The acting, the dialog, the premise, the characterizations... it's like a "Sci-Fi Channel Original Movie". It's barely above your average episode of Stargate: SG1. It's fucking god-awful.

In her interview with The Onion AV Club recently Eliza basically said that Joss didn't really write any of the scripts until the 6th or 7th episode. I really hope that's true because I was expecting at least the dialog to be as snappy as the usual Joss Whedon show. But this might be the first Whedon show that deserved its early studio-assisted suicide.

it's pretty terrible, unfortunately. i mean, the first episode was at least believable. the plots involving the secondary characters are actually kinda cool, and the overarching plot seems interestingish, but the main stories in the past two episodes are just kinda dumb. though damn i liked the singer chick's outfit in last night's ep.

Hmmm, didn't realize it was out yet. Sounds like I was better off missing it.

I love where Eliza reverences Joss as "Her watcher" in the interview!

Joss + Dushku.. meh.

Maybe an episode or two more can bring the pragmatic frontwoman out of her. Does anyone know if Joss is co writing any of this? I hope he didn't just stamp an idea and get a paycheck, although if i was him, I would. Hell, it would pay my bills. sigh

Yeah, I felt the same way. Really wanted to like it but it was so bad.

When does this come on and what network? I want to see if it's as bad as I'm hearing.

Friday night on FOX.

Gracias. I hope to weigh in soon.
