Joss Whedon's Got A New Show: Dollhouse

Maybe FOX will give it a chance this time after seeing all the Firefly hype post-cancellation. Probably wishful thinking, but my fingers are crossed. I'm not so sure about Dushku's acting skills with different personalites, but I'll be there.

I love that Joss has a new show but I am not completely sold on the concept or Dushku in the starring role.
The good thing about a series is that Joss whill have more concrete deadlines to get his work done. With his movie projects he seems to take forever just to finish a script.

I love all the stuff Joss does and I enjoy most of what Eliza has done. With that said I have a feeling that with their combined powers it'll be short lived and yet run longer than it needs to. *

That's serious coverage for a show that's yet to go into production
. I've been a casual viewer of most of Whedon's shows and this premise sounds very promising, so I'll tune in.

Seeing as it's Whedon and Dushku, I wish they just went ahead and made Faith the Vampire Slayer...oh well.
EDIT: And is it just me or is Dollhouse one of the worst titles you've ever heard?

If this show ever gets into production, then I will definitely try it. Eliza Dushku is way too attractive for me to pass watching on TV. I really miss Tru Calling.

The same goes with Angel (but I got in a little earlier in its run). If I hadn't been a convert by then, the title Firefly would have been zero draw to me.
