We've all seen the best of Buffy, Angel and Firefly, so I think a lot fans thought Dollhouse would start that way. But those three shows also started off shaky. It's nearly impossible to compare the first episodes of Buffy and Angel to places the shows went to. The same can apply to the first couple episodes of Firefly. Given time, Dollhouse can achieve that status of Whedon-geniusness, and Man on the Street seemed like a great place to start.<BR/><BR/>I'm apart of Michelle's group, but if there isn't any improvement over the next two episodes, I'd wish I chose Tara's group. Man on the Street got a lot of positive buzz, plus being against BSG... so I think the next two are the one's to watch.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561869413186077787.post-43214712800017582872009-03-23T14:38:00.000-04:002009-03-23T14:38:00.000-04:00Great great episode.

Emphasis on the "think" though because i can never be sure. The only way to be sure is to go back in time and stop myself from watching Buffy some how (doubt that's possible bc there was hard-core outside influence, but whatever.) If that was the case, I wouldn't be in the Cult of Whedon and I could form a real opinion. -OR- I stayed away from every bit of info surrounding Dollhouse...gouda pizza, see above.) But Buffyfest exists, so that is also impossible.Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04234869195720609070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561869413186077787.post-56706196725196070232009-03-23T12:31:00.000-04:002009-03-23T12:31:00.000-04:00I think all 13 episodes will certainly air this se...I think all 13 episodes will certainly air this season, and if the show can maintain its 30+% DVR numbers and its consistent Top 10 download status, it will get reordered for another season (13-18 episodes).<BR/><BR/>Its ratings were down this week from last week, but this week it was on against the BSG series finale. That it still managed to top 4 million viewers was a far better result than I expected. With the DVR and download numbers added in, this may end up the most-watched episode yet.<BR/><BR/>The show was hurt early on by bad buzz, rather than bad quality. Now the buzz is turning positive and the audience base is still there. Things should improve from here on out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561869413186077787.post-34325109309743457932009-03-23T12:29:00.000-04:002009-03-23T12:29:00.000-04:00Count me in for Tara's Group.

I would have gone with Bitsy a few weeks ago, but now that it's been airing and there's no buzz about abrupt cancellation, my money is on the network riding the season out just for convenience sake. <BR/><BR/>Such high hopes being dashed on a weekly basis is hard to stomach.

Finally I can be very happy about Dollhouse, the fight was better than anything on TV, Whedon fights have always been excellent and make other shows looks weak. Loved the Man on the street "interviews" that was perfect and all the plot twist just makes me yearn for Friday night.<BR/>JOSS IS BACK!!!!!elainecleohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09926775936167205826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561869413186077787.post-37001244030549599662009-03-23T09:52:00.000-04:002009-03-23T09:52:00.000-04:00I started to comment, but it got really long, so I...I started to comment, but it got really long, so I moved it here - http://www.watchingcw.com/have-an-opinion-about-dollhouse/ - if anyone cares to read it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561869413186077787.post-8505715990470801212009-03-23T02:49:00.000-04:002009-03-23T02:49:00.000-04:00I have no idea what the future holds with Dollhous...I have no idea what the future holds with Dollhouse.
