One Last Plea for Dollhouse

I was so excited about Joss Whedon's new show Dollhouse that I promoted it more than the impending birth of my first child. Sadly, like many of you I was underwhelmed by the show's premiere and subsequent offerings. Surely, it hasn't been the worse thing on TV but it just hasn't clicked. Still I'm willing to give it one more chance. Tonight's episode entitled Man on the Street is penned by Joss. Furthermore, Joss has gone out of his way to say this is the game changer that should grab fans new and old. Early reviews from everyone from AICN's Herc to E!'s Watch with Kristen have supported that statement and then some. Given Mr. Whedon's track record and the fact that both Buffy and Angel took some time to really click I'm pleading with you fine readers to give Dollhouse another chance. I know its airing at 8pm CST tonight against basketball, Friday Night Lights and of course, the series finale of Battlestar, but hey, that's what TiVo is for. If the episode yet again falls short, I promise never to speak of Dollhouse again on this blog.
