In the highly anticipated first season of Dollhouse, Echo (Eliza Dushku) is an “Active,” a member of a highly illegal and underground group who have had their personalities wiped clean so they can be imprinted with any number of new personas. Confined to a secret facility known as the “Dollhouse,” Echo and the other Actives including Sierra and Victor carry out engagements assigned by Adelle, one of the Dollhouse leaders. The engagements cater to the wealthy, powerful, and connected, and require the Actives to immerse themselves in all manner of scenarios — romantic, criminal, uplifting, dangerous, comical, and the occasional “pro bono” good deed. After each scenario, Echo, always under the watchful eye of her handler Boyd, returns to the mysterious Dollhouse where her thoughts, feelings, and experiences are erased by Topher, the Dollhouse’s genius programmer. Echo enters the next scenario with no memory of before. Or does she?
In Dollhouse, Echo is an "Active," a member of a highly illegal and underground group of individuals who have had their personalities wiped clean so they can be imprinted with any number of new personas. Hired by the wealthy, powerful and connected, the Actives don't just perform their hired roles; they wholly become - with mind, personality and physiology - whomever the client wants or needs them to be. Whether imprinted to be a lover, an assassin, a corporate negotiator or a best friend, the Actives know no other life than the specific engagements they are in at that time.

Love the show...just not itunes.This is one of the best shows i have ever seen!! but personally...being a teenager...i just dont have $35.88 to spend right now. i wish itunes would go back to normal and make tv shows $1.99 instead of $2.99...you would think with all this economic crap going on they would lower the prices instead of raising them. if they did change the prices back to $1.99, the entire season would be $23.88...and i could actually see myself buying it at that price. This is a show worth buying...just not at the rip-off price itunes sells it at..Score: 3/5

Loved it.It's much better if you read some of the scientific journals/articles online that tell "dollhouse" technologies are possible now. responding to review re: episode 3.. it is a veiled reference to certain pop singers (catch the mouse reference?) being the product of MK-ULTRA. The whole show either makes fun of certain conspiracies or plays them out. either way - Whedon is brilliant..Score: 5/5
Entertaining media with a powerful messageAs a firefly fan I recognized the way the theme of Dollhouse was done revisiting the issue of how bad medical research and mind control can ruin the world we live in. I was actually very impressed. The casting, dialog, and environment make a show that is entertaining and interesting while introducing multiple social issues related to the Dollhouse reality. It's a story of people who have their minds blanked because they were unable to cope with memories or problems in their life for a contracted time and then have their lives restored in extreme comfort. During this time they have their minds repeatedly wiped clean and imprinted with different personalities created for their engagements. In theory this sounds like a great deal but the show explores the ramifications of what this technology would realistically lead to. The first season explains the technology and the "intended" business model of a dollhouse along with all of the complications involved..Score: 5/5

Another Hit Show By JossJoss always makes the best shows first Buffy the Vampire Slayer, then Angel and now Dollhouse.

Dollhouse FanI absolutely love this show, there's no question about it, it's unique, clever, and always has you wondering what's going to happen next. I was extatic when I head they were renewed for a second season. I must say though, the pricing is a little high so the only episode I bought is "Epitaph One" and that is because my friend told me it was the best episode yet, and he was right..Score: 5/5
The last half gets a lot betterIt starts out kind of boring, but keep watching because the last five episodes are really interesting. It starts to get really really good for the second half of the season. It is completely awesome by the end. There are great plot twists in this show!.Score: 5/5
Best Show!I love this. Dollhouse is one of the best television shows to air in a long time. Why? Because it's not another crime drama or medical drama. Seriously think for a moment....name a show that isn't crime related or medically related. Now make sure your choice isn't a reality show! Can you think of one? No? Not a single show that is not crime or medical based and is not a reality show? I can think of two: Heroes and Ghost Whisperer. Now ghost whisperer treads on the boundry between the afore mentioned category and the rare "not-one-of-them" category, as people are sometimes murdered and would like others to know. But I think its sad that primetime television is composed of the same stuff. Take the exceedingly large crime drama as an example. Name one that isn't like CSI or it's spinoffs. They all end up similar. Mentalist is different because Jane's an a*s and he solves it by observing. Big woop. Lots of people are a*ses. Numb3rs...Charlie uses math to solve crimes. NCIS...they only solve marine-related crimes. Criminal minds...they try to understand the killers. Honestly, it all runs together. Medical Drama time! House is different because House is an a*s, like Jane. Again, big woop. ER...the mostly patient-based but filled with relationship drama show. Grey's Anatomy...filled with relationship drama..as is Private Practice. Scrubs..is funny. Now, I said I could only think of two that barely fit into anything. That may have been a bit of a fib. The funny Chuck is a show that borderlines the "not-one-of-them" category and the category that everything seems to fall in. It's about spies who stop the bad guys. Fringe is more about stopping the bad guys from doing experiments on us but still...borderline. My point? Dolhouse is one of those rare exceptions of Prime Time television. I couldn't believe the show was that great! It was far beyond what I had hoped for and I'm happy to see it's not one of those that tries to fit in with the rest. It's different and Joss should be proud that his show isn't blended in with the rest of Prime Time television..Score: 5/5

Smart, Sexy & Dangerous!Dollhouse is one of those shows that only comes around every now and then, and it's one of those shows that will blow your mind. The concept of the show is actually kind of basic, programmable people who can be whoever you want them to be, but this is also a very "out there" concept at the same time, and with the main characters constantly changing you get to see many different sides to them, which always keeps the show entertaining. The first 5 episodes are mainly what FOX wanted, they are good but episode 6 onwards goes from good to amazing, so stick with this show and you'll be addicted. I am glad we're getting a Season 2 as Dollhouse has the potential to become a fantastic show and develop an even bigger fanbase, I have stook with it from the start and I will stick with it until the end <3.Score: 5/5
Episode 13After complaining about the lack of eipsode 13 this was my response '...I have done some further research into this issue and it looks like the network didn't provide the episode to us and they have claimed it is unaired / online only in select spots'. Basically this means they won't be uploading it to iTunes at all. This means that the season pass costs more than buying the individual episodes so I'd suggest contacting iTunes for a rant and possibly a partial refund..Score: 5/5
Absolute Genius... Totally Gripping!!!I expected the absolute great as soon as i saw Joss Whedons name and it does not disapoint. Every episode has its own story yet at the same time it is soooooooo addictive as a series. The whole idea of the dollhouse is fascinating, kudos to Elisa Dusku who plays Echo, the show covers basically all genres, if you like Angel/Heroes or wana get into something amazing individual and fresh then watch dollhouse.

Room To Grow - But save the SeriesThere are some rumours circulating that Dollhouse may be cancelled, so come on everyone lets all get this series's season 1. The show has an extremely interesting and enjoyable concept and are very glad that this series was renewed for Season 2; this series has barely scraped the surface of what can be achieved. It was the only place where I could get it in form which can be used while on the go. I'm also not going to review this series with an "I love it" as I also agree with ShimmerGeek. The comment about the early episodes doesn't really apply to me as this is the first time I have seen it, but for some this could hold true..Score: 5/5
