Over the past fifteen years, no one has made more arresting television than Joss Whedon. BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER helped revolutionize television, not only making the empowered female hero a staple of television, but popularizing the long memoir arc and introducing the idea of the body count. ANGEL did microscopic innovation in its acquire moral, but mild managed to roll out several seasons of suitable and consistently appealing television. And FIREFLY not only brought original ground by blending the Western and Sci-fi, but brought a grittiness to the genre that later BATTLESTAR GALACTICA took to unique heights. DOLLHOUSE, however, is both a far more though-provoking and adventurous series than any of these. Is it as consistently successful as these? Absolutely not. Does it characterize Joss Whedon’s best work? Here the acknowledge gets dicey. Speaking strictly on the basis of what has been shown so far the retort would be “No,” but a more objective and apt respond would be, “Potentially.”
It is no secrete that DOLLHOUSE is considered a long shot to be renewed. The fault largely has to be laid at the feet of the executives of FOX. This exhibit, unlike virtually every other display that FOX has ever done, is cutting edge and adventurous, taking risks unlike anything else you’ll score on commercial TV. Had the display been placed on any night of the week other than Friday it unquestionably would have attracted a healthy viewership. After all, there is no ask that a gigantic number of people are actually watching it. Between live viewers on the “death night” of Friday, the colossal number of people who DVR the note, the tall number of people who download it via Torrents, and those who steal it on iTunes or Amazon’s Unbox, a whole lot of people perceive this exhibit. But FOX shoved the note into the least promising time slot of the entire week, Friday nights. And what was the result? What anyone would imagine it would be: no one watched it live. DVR? Yes. Download? Yes. But live? No. The pickle with Friday nights is that everyone in the 18-49 age group that advertisers desire is that they are all out doing stuff. The shows that have advantageous ratings that night, like GHOST WHISPERER, attracts primarily viewers over the age of 49. FOX is responsible for the shameful ratings of DOLLHOUSE by not putting it on a better night. But despite that it has a reveal that plenty of people are watching, only not live.

DOLLHOUSE is built around an extremely difficult concept: people voluntarily (though not uncoerced) agreeing to become more or less indentured servants (which also involves nothing short of prostitution) . Imprinted with the personalities who anyone needed for their jobs, the “Actives” who populate the Dollhouse can undertake virtually any job imaginable, for a fee. The first several episodes were somewhat dreary and dragged a bit, a series of standalone episodes strongly encouraged by FOX. But once the expose moved away from the “assignment of the week” it became the most bracing and tantalizing hour on television. The second half of the season featured one absolutely breathtaking episode after another, culminating in the final two, where the mysterious “Alpha” finally keep in an appearance (played by the astounding Alan Tudyk) makes his appearance. The exhibit featured one startling twist and shock after another, some that could be anticipated (like many, I had guessed something crucial about Amy Acker’s character) ) and others that could not. It became a explain that was the least predictable on TV.
The interrogate now is whether FOX will allow us to get out what happens next. Due to their abominable decision to set the prove on Friday nights the ratings bombed (the novel belief was to save the expose on Mondays fair before 24), which is unfortunately composed the only came in town for the networks and advertisers, despite the otherwise sizable number of people who gaze the series. I do have one hope for the continuance of DOLLHOUSE as we know it. Kevin Reilly, the head of FOX since the summer of 2007, has not been out-of-control in canceling shows. Unlike the FOX of the past, the Kevin Reilly FOX has been far more sober in canceling shows (though he has inexplicably renewed what is arguably the most hated present on TV, `TIL DEATH, which has the lowest viewer rating of any active indicate on TV) . While head of NBC, Reilly made a habit of renewing critically acclaimed but low-rated series, like 30 ROCK, FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS, and THE OFFICE. Two of those three later became hits. My hope with DOLLHOUSE is that Reilly will remember that grand shows have a potential of growing an audience, if you set aside them on the correct night.
DOLLHOUSE is one of many shows of fresh years that focuses extensively or even primarily on the inquire of of what makes a person. BATTLESTAR GALACTICA, for instance, dealt at length about who could be said to be a person. In the first three seasons of that prove Sharon Agathon (who was, interestingly, keen with Karl Agathon, who was played by Tahmoh Penikett, who plays FBI agent Paul Ballard on DOLLHOUSE) is at the center of whether or not she is a person, despite being a cybernetic machine. Living in a world where our self-identities are often the fabricate of the things that we identify with and capture, products of the consumer society in which we live. Questions of authenticity are at the heart of our society. If you know many of the thinkers and writers with whom Joss Whedon is familiar there is no demand that he is familiar with these kinds of issues. Many are not comfortable with this. Whedon made his imprint as one of the titanic feminists on television (and interestingly DOLLHOUSE stars Eliza Dushku, whose mother, like Whedon’s, is a well known feminist) . He has taken a lot of flak for the prostitution that the “Dolls” on the reveal remove in. The women are very mighty victims and there are few images of empowered women, completely unlike BUFFY with Buffy and Willow, ANGEL with Fred and Cordelia, and FIREFLY with River and Zoe. But the world is messy and complex and heavily nuanced. This demonstrate interacts and dialogues with that complexity. We are having a crisis of identity. We allow too many influences in society dictate who we are. How can we be authentic human beings when we do not have control over our have personhood? These questions transcend issues of feminism and penetrate to the expect of what it means to be a person.
Although there may not be a Season Two of DOLLHOUSE, Joss Whedon has produced a wonderfully self-contained series even if it doesn’t continue. Unliked the broad majority of TV creators and writers, Whedon has always felt that each season of a series should destroy in a plot so that if it is the last episode, fans aren’t left unnecessarily suffering. The final episode of ever season of every exhibit he has done has not ended on a cliffhanger unless the exhibit had already been renewed before production on the finale had begun. Seasons One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, and Seven of BUFFY as well as Seasons One, Two, Four, and Five of ANGEL could all succor as series ends. They already knew that ANGEL had been renewed when the finale of Season Three was filming. FIREFLY was cancelled legal in the middle of filming, so it never had the opportunity of any kind of ending.
The DVDs will feature an episode that FOX currently has no notion on broadcasting. It guest stars Felicia Day (one of the Potentials from Season Seven of BUFFY and the fancy female lead in DR. HORRIBLE’S SING-ALONG BLOG) and purportedly does some exceptionally over-the-top things. Kristin of Eonline has reported that if FOX does not renew DOLLHOUSE, Joss Whedon is keen in developing a unique exhibit out of that final though unbroadcast episode of DOLLHOUSE. Hopefully, this time he will try to do something on one of the cable networks. Instead of FOX, I would like to peruse him on the Sci Fi channel (or as it is soon to be known, SyFy) or HBO or Showtime or even AMC. Because we haven’t seen this episode yet, we have no understanding what direction a fresh Joss Whedon series based on this would inspect like. But if it is even a share as racy as DOLLHOUSE, I am game. The truth is, this prove should never have been on FOX to start with. That it did was a result of Eliza Dushku having a contract with FOX to gain a original display. She immediately asked Joss Whedon to do that note. I assume she has done a big job as Echo in the series, but I hope that we’ll continue to behold her either on FOX in this indicate or on a cable channel in the same role on a recent demonstrate.
Will this be the raze of DOLLHOUSE? I hope not. I had grown to have almost no interest in FOX and hadn’t been watching any FOX shows in several seasons, but first with TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES and then with DOLLHOUSE and FRINGE, I belief it was finally becoming a network that was fervent in arresting and complex programming. And maybe it will be. Time will train. But here is what confuses me. There is no shortage of astronomical series on TV. But so many of those shows are lightly watched. Some are on cable and as a result are sheltered by lowered expectations. Enraged MEN, BREAKING Abominable, BATTLESTAR GALACTICA, and Moral BLOOD are all animated or even tall shows that regain very few viewers, far less than even failing shows on CBS or NBC or ABC. Then there are more heavily watched shows like PUSHING DAISIES, ELI STONE, TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES, CHUCK, and DOLLHOUSE that either pick up cancelled or are in trouble of cancellation because they are on one of the broadcast networks. There is no inquire of that the television industry is broken. Viewership is in decline for all the networks for all evenings. There is puny to expose that this is going to reverse. But the networks have not managed to approach up with any kind of functional model to deal with lessened viewership. FOX can’t figure out what to do with shows like TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES and DOLLHOUSE that are heavily watched but have few live viewers. If FOX cancels them, in their space will go two other shows with perhaps even fewer viewers and far less considerable buzz.
Whatever happens, we at least got one dazzling season of the always-fascinating Joss Whedon. Hopefully we’ll bag more seasons of DOLLHOUSE. If not, more seasons of some unusual Joss Whedon series.
May 15, 2009 — Awesome news!!!! Against hope FOX has renewed DOLLHOUSE for a second season! The Hollywood Reporter broke the sage but it has since been confirmed by some writers on the demonstrate. It has been renewed for only 13 episodes, which is similar to what has happened to CHUCK and FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS. But unless one wants to quibble with the number of episodes, this is spacious news. The one flee in the ointment is that FOX is apparently keeping the note on Friday night. It seems that they have decided to sustain a reveal going that a core group of people care passionately about rather than a present that might derive slightly more viewers, but who don’t care that distinguished one diagram or another.
I am a great fan of Dollhouse, very jubilant it’s getting renewed, and will be buying this Blu-ray station as soon as it’s available.
This prove is astronomical because it’s not like every other reveal. Most shows on these days are either a hospital note, a crime scene investigation reveal, a “reality indicate”, or a family based sitcom.
The first few episodes can be a bit painful, but the indicate really picks up by the raze of the season. The reason is partly because Fox requested the first few episodes be standalone, for the sake of novel viewers. Surprise, Fox’s call was listless deplorable there, and caused many people to lose interest in the note. The last few episodes are astronomical, and season two will be more like these.
Can’t wait to watch how season two plays out.
