Storyline
A shadowy organization uses mind-wiped humans known technically as "actives" and colloquially as "dolls" who are imprinted with false memories and specialized skills for various tasks on behalf of paying clients. When they are not on assignments, they live in an underground "Dollhouse", a facility that protects and provides for their needs, including food, exercise and sleeping pods little bigger than coffins. One of the dolls, a young woman called Echo by her handlers, is slowly becoming aware of herself and what is going on. Meanwhile, at least two different people on the outside are trying to bring down the Dollhouse, one by finding Echo and the other by using her. —ahmetkozan

Did you know
- TriviaJoss Whedon had a five year plan for the series and had already worked out how the characters would evolve over time but the show only ran for two seasons. With this in mind, you can see how the plots of season 2 could have been spaced out to four seasons.

Brilliant
In typical network shortsightedness, Fox cancels an INTELLIGENT program that doesn't pander to the least common denominator. Dollhouse is extremely well written, visually interesting, and consistently holds attention. Viewers who are negative clearly don't understand it. The concept is unique and well handled with a great cast. I own both seasons and wish there were more!
