May the Fourth be with you
May. 4th, 2009 08:55 pmIf Dollhouse gets cancelled which it probably will it will be a bloody crying shame. It's really ramping up, (but then, I've found it incredibly interesting from week one) and the whole Sleeper/Alpha/Attic thing is blowing my mind. OK - most shows have to have a Road Runner element (e.g. the Coyote chases the RR forever or the public loses interest) but some shows (Lost, Heroes)were more interested in creating questions than answering them. Josh seems to manage that in a good way, and bloody hell, he managed it admirably with Buffy for years and years without tying himself in too many knots.
Dollhouse is dark, unafraid to handle issues that some others don't, intelligent, surprising, downright scary and Dushku aside, some of the acting is very good. I'm hugely impressed with the actor who plays Victor for example - I almost bit my tongue of in the last (maybe the last) episode where he's been imprinted with D. And now we have the wonderful wonderful Alan Tudyk who I've only seen in a few things, but have been hugely impressed with every performance. Just because he's not "classically handsome" - doesn't mean he can't act everyone else off the stage.
Fox - I know you aren't listening, and I know you won't read the email I just sent, but please DON'T cancel this show. It's the best thing I've seen for bloody ages.
Also enjoying Legends of the Seeker for entirely different reasons. :D
And - if you thought you were getting away with it you was wrong! Eggs and Hatchlings! I have a floaty egg. *pets it.*
