Product Description
Amazon.ca
Echo's developing self began as the season's dominant story, but halfway through the season creator Joss Whedon (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog) learned the show had been cancelled--so he decided to cram the events he'd planned for multiple seasons into the remaining episodes. The result is more like a zippy science-fiction novel than typical serial television. Some plot developments feel rushed, but overall the headlong pace revs up the excitement as the Dollhouse fights against its parent corporation and instigates what may be the end of civilization. The regular characters all develop in juicy ways and some actors from other Whedon series (like Firefly's Summer Glau and Angel's Alexis Denisof) get plum guest roles. The series has its weaknesses--some ideas seem clumsily grafted on from other science-fiction franchises--but the second season vastly improved upon the first, and Whedon's vivid characters and superb storytelling make Dollhouse a pleasure to watch. The DVD extras are substantive, particularly some deleted scenes that give additional heft to the season's developments. --Bret Fetzer

Superb,
This review is from: Dollhouse: Season 2 [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
A great show, cancelled before its time. The good thing is they were given enough notice to wrap up the story with a satisfying conclusion.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Fabulous Series,

This review is from: Dollhouse: The Complete Second Season (DVD)
Took me a while to get into this series -- I was halfway through the first season before I really started enjoying it. The second season was brilliant and this show will be missed. The Series Finale made me cry -- darn you Joss WhedonWould have liked more extras on the dvd
5.0 out of 5 stars
Event-filled second season,
By
This review is from: Dollhouse: The Complete Second Season (DVD)
Such an awesome series - enough material in the second season for several seasons - sometimes the episodes are a bit overwhelming because so much happens in them but it is worth it to have closure at the end.
