Joss Whedon Does It Again

Being a huge Buffy and Angel fan, I was a little leery of Whedon's latest creation, Dollhouse... especially after hearing the concept. Questions like "Can this really work without being corny?", "Will enough people 'get it' to carry the series?", and "Why am I talking to myself while sitting alone in my underwear?" ran through my mind before I took the plunge and watched the first two episodes back-to-back.

Well, I can tell you this... it isn't corny. It's smartly written, action-packed and compelling to watch. I really hope enough people get it so that it sticks around for awhile. I do, however, need to start wearing pants more often.

Who are we kidding? It's a good show, which means by the end of this season Fox will have moved its timeslot around three times and cancelled it before the season finale.
