shapinglightSo I thought it was about time I watched Dollhouse season 2 and got it out of the way. Just watched the first ep. Boy, it's creepy! I'd forgotten. And Tahmoh Penikett's character is the creepiest of the lot.
I wonder. Some shows are creepy because they're meant to be. I've never been sure with this one, and now my opinion of Joss's understanding of his own story has once again plummeted to BtVS season 6-like depths, I'm really not sure if the level of creepiness is intentional or not.
Slight spoilers behind cut, and don't spoiler me for future eps, even though I've been pretty thoroughly spoiled by accident for them already.
It was, in fact, so creepy -especially the scenes between Topher and Whiskey - that I began to think I wouldn't bother after all, but then Eliza started beating men up again and reeled me back in. Oh well. Only 12 episodes.
Also, I noticed this ep was written by Andrew Chambliss, the new co-writer of the Buffy comics. Can't say this was one of the show's better eps, so hmmm.
