Re: BSG, I've just been getting increasingly frustrated. At a point where they should be wrapping things up, or at least taking the series down to a close, things are getting more and more fragmented. There may be some deep metaphor to that, but since the "Final Five" are clearly the producer's favorites the whole thing is revolving around a concept I think is lame and characters I no longer care about.
Plus there were reveals last night pushing me even closer to the belief that they're just making it up as they go along at this point.
Dollhouse is the new Joss Whedon show that premiered last night on Fox. Concept is that the technology exists to wipe people's personalities completely and imprint them with any personality you want. Sort of like the movie "Strange Days" taken to the next logical step. An organization exists that promises people the exact personality they want or need. For a price, natch.
*I* think it's worth watching. It's subtle, very different from anything I've seen Joss do before, and has a lot of potential to be seriously creepy.
Based on the reactions I'm seeing in the aftermath this morning, I appear to be in a definite minority. I'm also a huge Eliza Dushku fan, which - disclaimer - could be clouding my response.
It's definitely what most people are going to assume who don't agree with my liking of the series.
