Okay, anyone heard about/planning to watch Dollhouse? I hope so!
Dollhouse is the newest project of Joss Whedon, creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, and Firefly (you should also all watch those if you haven't already). Now, since Joss Whedon is like wicked amazing, I know he will make the show unique, but... anyone else getting Pretender vibes here?
Full Version: Dollhouse
| QUOTE ("http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dollhouse_(TV_series)) |
| In Dollhouse, Eliza Dushku plays a young woman named Echo, a member of a group of people known as "Actives" or "Dolls." The Dolls have had their personalities wiped clean so they can be imprinted with any number of new personas, including memory, muscle memory, skills, and language, for different assignments. They're then hired out for particular jobs, crimes, fantasies, and occasional good deeds. On missions, Actives are monitored internally (and remotely) by Handlers. In between tasks, they are mind-wiped into a child-like state and live in a futuristic dormitory/laboratory, a hidden facility nicknamed "The Dollhouse". The story follows Echo, who begins, in her mind-wiped state, to become self-aware.[2][3] Beyond Dushku's character, the show will also revolve around the people who run the mysterious "Dollhouse" and two other "Dolls", Victor and Sierra, who are friendly with Echo. Although the Actives are ostensibly volunteers, the operation is highly illegal and under constant threat on one end from Paul Ballard, a determined federal agent who has heard a rumor about the dolls, and an insane rogue Active on the other. |
New personas? Hidden facility? Ringing bells?

There's another video I saw recently that I can't seem to find, in which the narrator says "She can be anyone they want her to be," deja vu much?
Anyway, watch it. Premieres Friday, February 13, 9:00 om EST on FOX.
Hm...that does sound creepy as well as Pretender-ish! Andrea Parker would make a good doll!
As long as they make a doll that looks exactly like Miss Parker, I'll be watching! 
*eyeroll* Well i can tell you now that Andrea is not in the first season... but don't give up! And watch anyway!
