I agree it was a bit ahead of its time. There is a new netflix show out now that has similarities and some of the same actors. Its called Altered Carbon - maybe what the dollhouse becomes? Give it a go once ya finished Dollhouse
Looking forward to more of your reactions
I will definitely watch it! I have been hearing good reviews but didnt know if I wanted to watch it. Now, I am intrigued

Okay, guys.
I am currently watching Season 2 episode 4 and the beginning is a little wacky because I dunno who is a doll and who is not. I am assuming the opening scene was Sierra before she was a doll? Or was she already a doll? You would think not since she rejected the dude and tried to go off with Victor.
I laughed out loud a little bit at topher talking to himself..
I love echo and I so respect how Topher takes what Echo tells him seriously unlike most everyone else, except Boyd. Topher really has a love for all the actives, but I think he tries to keep the weird love under wraps.
But, of course, nothing is sweeter than the love that Victor has for Sierra even without fully remembering her!
Another LOL moment when Echo tells Victor, "Its good, youre taking matters into your own hands" and Victor says, "I put them in my shirt". hahahahahah. so funny.
Nolan is a superjerk and I am baffled. Poor Sierra. But go Adelle for sticking up for her like that even if Nolan was an a**butt about it.
Awh, man. Looks like Adelle is folding under the Rossum hand /: And poor Topher for being so sad.
I honestly really felt like I was gonna tear up when Topher goes to get Sierra for the treatment and Victor is going to go with her but Topher tells him he cant so Victor just says he will wait for her and sits down watching her go ): too.sad.to.function.
OMG way to freakin go Topher for freaking making her Pria instead of feeding her to the nasty wolf that is Nolan ahahahhhahahahahah. (still sad for poor wittle victor tho)
Whoa, I can believe that Echo keeps a book because there has to be some way she is remembering things but Im wondering at what point she started the book. Was I the only one that noticed the writing on the ceiling of her pod?
I hope Boyd doesnt say anything because I think that is the only way anyone has a chance of surviving whats going on it the Epitaph episodes.
C'mon, Topher, if you are going to send her into the lions den as herself, knowing she is gonna go crazy, atleast give her some kung ku or something. Oh, nevermind, looks like she didnt need the kung fu.
Wow, Boyd is the real MVP of this episode.
OMG bring on the waterworks because even as Pria she knows she loves Victor.
The ending was a little heartwarming cause Sierra and Victor but also suuuuper foreboding with Echo!

Season 2 Episode 5 - The Public Eye
I already love it because of Alexis Denisof. I am super sentimental when it comes to Buffy/Angel actors and I love seeing them in different things. Hearing him talk like that is extra weird for me, though!
Whoa, Madeline. What the what are you even doing?! I thought you were so grateful and loving the pampered life? I honestly dont believe her. Am I victim shaming? I feel kinda bad. Forgive me, as this is a show so I think I should get a pass here. I just dont think she feels bad or upset about anything that happened except maaaaybe if she remembers what happened with Paul.
It is really foreboding and troubling thinking of what Rossum had in place for this kind of even. Paul does NOT look happy. Isnt it weird how deeply he cares for someone that he now knows wasnt even real and just a ploy to destroy him? Or even more weird how he seems so intent on protecting Dollhouse? Is it all part of the act so he can destroy Dollhouse from the inside?
Whoa, plot twist. Is Perrin's wife a doll?
Okay, now I get why Madeline is upset. I think the Dollhouse should be more transparent with the dolls before and after they become an active.
Lol Tophers joke about Kilo.
SO weird how Echo is aware of them changing her into someone else and saying she cant help November if they do help her.
Hmm, how serious Perrin is looking about trying to save Echo and all the dolls makes me wonder if he is even aware his wife is a doll?
Oh, I guess she is not a doll. Hmm, interesting. Im on the edge of my seat at this point.
OH. MY. GOSH. TALK ABOUT A FREAKIN PLOT TWIST. Perrin's wife is not the doll, oh no, because HE IS.
I have a feeling it was his wife that was the one to make him a doll and get him to run for senator and all that. But I'm wondering what the game is for her having him want to expose dollhouse? No, the wife is not pulling the strings, she is just the handler. This is getting curiouser and curiouser.
Whoa this fight sequence is so intense the way it goes from in that moment to echos other memories of fighting and stuff.
Echo- "I think her bad guys are worse than my bad guys" LMAO wow.
Hmm, they want her to testify?
Ah, I get it. He gets credit for shutting ONE branch of Dollhouse down and gets the senate seat, then Rossum has a doll in the senate. Perfect strategy.
This Bennett character is kinda creepy...
Scratch that, super scary!

Season 2 Episode 6 - The Left Hand
Getting this episode started off right on the edge of my seat leaving off where the last episode ended: Bennett torturing Echo!
Poor Perrin. I felt bad for him at first but his stupid fake wife is just so freakin mean to him. For what reason? Kinda scary how easily she (and people in the real world) can just fake love and affection. All for a stupid end game smh. Well, I guess Rossum doesnt think its stupid. And like I said in the last episode, it is really great strategy.
Topher - "I dont like going out of my comfort zone"
I am right there with ya, buddy!
LOL Victor as Topher is hilarious. And I love Victor in a Topher outfit.
EW, obviously Bennett thinks Topher is a stud muffin.
I dont like Bennett but I can not deny the interaction between Bennett and Topher is adorable.
I was also wondering about Bennetts arm, nerves are severed... EEP, no wonder she hates Echo. Waiting to see how Echo did it.
OOOOH, I swear I am liking Adelle more and more with each episode! lol the way she "showed just how good at bluffing" she is! LMAO!
I was actually quite surprised that Bennett is not an active.
The entire interaction of Topher and Victor-as-Topher on the phone talking about Bennett was pure gold!
Hmm that was a weird flash from Echo with the tiniest bit of insight into what happened with Bennett.
Holy Canoli, Bennett is certifiably wacky.. she has a serious vendetta with Echo it seems and way to play on Tophers sympathy.
Am I the only one who though that Perrin and Echo removing each others GPS trackers was weirdly erotic? No? Just me? ...awkward...
WOOOOW, Bennett really knows what she is doing here. She is playing perfectly and everyone is just falling so easily into her hand.
Perrin and Echo are so inspirational and so gung-ho that I just know that something dreadful is about to happen...
Oh my, that would explain the dreadfulness... but yet, I am also really impressed by Bennetts resourcefulness.
Whoa, Topher, way to step up to the plate there.
SUPER plot twist at the end. Poor Madeline.

Season 2 Episode 7 - Meet Jane Doe
LMAO Topher is so freakin goofy.
Wow, poor Echo eating apples out of trashcans.
Oh, my. Echo on her own and still trying to help people. Watching her change personalities was wicked.
3 months later...
Wow, so there is no more care about an active's well being. Thats depressing.. Also, waiting to see how it is that they got Echo back !! Or did they even get Echo back? If they didnt then I am wondering how Echo became a nurse but I am assuming it was specifically to help that girl.
Now it is clear that she has somehow become a nurse. Clearly, thanks to Paul. Oooh, fancy. In preparation to take down the dollhouse.
Seems Echo is having quite the identity crisis. I wonder if she will feel the same way if and when they put Caroline's consciousness back into her. Will she still remember being Echo and all the things she had done thus far?
Also, I wonder how Echo has such an individual personality, more than the others.
Paul and Echo training is also super erotic. It is really creepy when Echo is making a map with both hands at the same time.
Now I am completely confused which side Paul is really on. Was he just saying those things to Boyd so he and Echo can infiltrate the Dollhouse? Or is he just an a**butt?
Smart. Thinking. Echo. What a freaking plan.
I love the look of disgust on Adelle's face when she is about to walk into the room with all the men.
Oh my goodness man can nothing ever go right for Echo? Here I am, on the edge of my seat again...
LOL, Victor and Sierra are so adorable and Topher is hilarious "shooting" them into doll state while they are kissing.
Oh my gosh!!!! no!!!! DONT SEPARATE SIERRA AND VICTOR YOU MONSTER!!!!
Watching Echo change between people does not get any less wicked.
I was kinda loosing faith with Topher because it seemed like he was playing right into evils hands but he has been trying with all his might to help the dolls! yay topher.
WOW, I really thought Adelle was going to be a good guy...
