Dollhouse - Installment #1

[wwcitizen]

The first episode of Dollhouse that aired tonight was pretty interesting. Dollhouse is a new creation of Joss Wheadon, creator of Angel and Buffy among other things. Granted, the basic storyline tenets are formulaic - underground good-doers with unknown angel investors fighting against the FBI agent who knows they exist, but can't find the Dollhouse. This FBI agent's bosses are antagonistic and arrogant. Just a bit overdone in my book (The Sheild, Hillstreet Blues, Miami Vice, Beverly Hills Cop, all of the Lethal Weapon movies, and the list goes on...).

However, the story, actors, acting, scenery, and tonight's premise was pretty good for the first shot. Not gangbusters, but I'm looking forward to more.
