Dollhouse

Season Two Premiere: September 25, 9 pm, Fox

Joss Whedon is a fanboy favorite and he knows that his fans are the reason that Dollhouse, the latest addition to the ever-expanding Whedonverse, didn’t meet the same fate as Firefly, his former Friday-night foray on Fox which was canceled after only 11 episodes. With a high concept (think Charlie’s Angels meets The Matrix) and a batch of stellar episodes to close out the first season, Whedon and company have a strong foundation on which to base Season Two, exploring the mysteries and expanding on the mythology of Dollhouse. The addition of Reaper’s Michele Fazekas and Tara Butters to the writing staff and the return of Felicia Day, whom we last saw in the DVD exclusive post-apocalyptic 13th episode "Epitaph One," can only help to build on the show’s already sizable momentum. The ultimate fate of the series is up to you, but rest assured that for Season Two Echo and her fellow actives will undergo more memory-erasing pseudoscience to become whomever their clients wish them to be, all while trying to uncover who they really are.
