So we wanted to watch Dollhouse. We are not intense Whedon fans, but will certainly make an effort to watch his shows. I was a big fan of Firefly, a moderate fan of Buffy (more at the beginning) and Angel (more in the middle).  We also liked his XMen and I liked Dr. Horrible fairly well!  Anyway, just to get that out of the way, Whedon is not my God, but I have given all his work my attention.

He talked about his project re Dollhouse on Fresh Air if you want to go listen to him talk for an hour.

So, here is my humble opinion and take on the show's first episode.
