Dollhouse

Overall I agree with what Julie had to say about Dollhouse (especially the point her friend made). Although I'm less unhappy with Eliza Duku as the lead, cause, well you can figure it out. I think my biggest issue with the show is it doesn't seem to have a goofy/funny element to it.

I will add that the bit of dialogue where Echo claims she will put the kidnappers at ease and the father disagrees seemed very familiar to me (20.5 minutes in). I started to think that Whedon had copied a sequence in another show. Then I finally realized it was The Shepherd's explanation for why the alliance was so willing to give him medical help in the Firefly episode "Safe" (38 minutes in). I guess Whedon will forgive Whedon.
