tanaiseEpisode 3: Rockstar Barbie
Really, they have to thinking about their price structures here. The manager can afford twins? Seriously? Maybe there is a price plan based on the personalities? Simple slut personalities are cheap, and then they up the prices depending on complexities? Slut, then hostage negotiator is more expensive, kayaking/hiking/mountain climbing slut--that's pricier still.
FYI: I would prefer Echo to be whoring rather than singing, in all future episodes.
Seriously, you are standing around in a bra--you are the only one in a bra, yet that doesn't bother you--but you are all shy about taking off the bra suddenly?
Sierra as a geeky Aussie fan: loff.
Echo's lipgloss: wrong.
Why must the fight be in a dark basement? Couldn't we have a little well-lit ass-kicking?
(aw, look. it's irony! singer girl thinks she was created.)
Episode 4: Midwife/Pretty Woman/Ocean's 11 Barbie
Please stop making sly memory comments in the show. It is making me crazy. And if I am crazy, I will snap and kill you all.
Who decides they need a midwife doll? I mean, i guess maybe like, JFK and Marilyn Monroe. But Mr. and Mrs. Normal can surely find something cheaper.
("feel free to forget I exist": Dear show, you're not funny.)
She is barehanded all the time. Couldn't they give her a program that believed she should wear gloves while doing illegal things?
It would help me look up cute boys on IMDB if I could remember anyone's name in the show even seconds after they are mentioned.
Sierra-Taffy says the 'comfortable shoes' line while wearing the least comfortable shoes known mankind.
Episode 5: Cult Barbie
Oh, please god don't let her sing in this episode.
Oh, look. Another reference to dollness. I will kill.
They will operate on her eye, and she will be just fine the next day? Seriously? Does even Lasik work like that?
(and a "new person" comment. Seriously, do is there a quota of times they need to remind us they're dolls? Because we know they are dolls. We have been watching it. They can stop reminding us. )
Incidentally, all cult members named Seth always remind me of the Setesh episode of Stargate. Oh, stargate.
So, I work at a non-government, non-FBI office. And someone does not get to just wander in and out by themselves. Even if I am expecting someone, I still have to go and sign them in and escort them at all times. I can only assume that the FBI actually uses at least that much security. And yet Mellie waltzes in--with manicotti--and gets handed interoffice mail?
"Only the unrighteous will be consumed" is like the witch test.
She's a cult member, and wearing high heels? I mean, serious businesslike high heels, not slut shoes, but still.
ooh, there is an attic. And it's creeeeeepy.
"I see perfectly" is a really sucky line there. Seriously, there are like so many other lines.
Episode 6: And introducing Victor as Bad Touch Ken.
Totally not enough shirtless Helo, thus far, fyi. I hope it happens in this episode at least.
Luckily, his experience beating up on Cylons comes in handy in this episode, and it's only 5 minutes in.
I would totally be happy if the Victor and Sierra show had Helo show up just in time beat up people just as they escape.
(oh yeah, shirtlessness. )
Also, I feel there should be references to cylons in this show. I wanted him to make a machine comment in the bed with Mellie, but I suppose maybe it would have seemed too much like a doll comment and this episode actually didn't remind us repeatedly that they are dolls, they are like machines, they have no memories, they are blank slates, etc, etc.
For a guy with a white knight complex, he sure has no problem attempting to beat the everloving shit out of her. I like that. It gives me hope. Also, I'm pretty sure that she used the car roof fight choreography bit as Faith.
Hopefully we will find a better reason for the Dollhouse than money making, because as it is, it sucks. I am hoping for Alien master plan. Oh please let it be cylons. Or skynet. That would also be acceptable.
(also, while this was still whoring at least a) no singing and b) it was slightly more complex whoring than usual.)
Hmm. That was. well, having watched 4 in a row, it was definitely better than the ones before. I wouldn't go so far as to say great or anything, but a step in the right direction, for sure. If only that could have been week 1 instead of week 6.
Now I will have to go read everyone's spoiler posts.
(oh, and I am SO BAD withnames faces paying attention that it took me like, until episode 4 to even consider the fact that Victor and the Russian CI were the same person. I even thought they were both very pretty. But not the same person.

Date: 2009-03-23 06:10 am (UTC)I am willing to suspend disbelief on this one. When I did navy work, there always seemed to be people wandering around without badges because the navy guys were always sneaking people through the back door because the proper door was too much of a hassle.
