Zombies (of various kinds)
I really liked the season premiere of Dollhouse, glad to see the show not only rise from almost certain death via cancellation. but succeed in having a story that's more meaningful than those from the beginning of season 1. Episode two wasn't quite as strong to me, but again, much better than many in season 1. [I find myself very torn: (highlight for mild spoilers) one the one hand, mother's have a special link to their children, yes; on the other, it seemed like a gender stereotype of 'women are crazy bitches ruled by emotions and biology.' Argh.]
Now though, the ratings are so horrible it seems Dollhouse might not make it even for the 13 episodes it has. If you can and don't mind, please watch it on Hulu (there are ways to do this even if you're outside the US - if you don't know, I'll dig for them).
Season 2 Episode 1, Vows
Season 2 Epidose 2, Instinct
I want this back-from-the-dead show to keep shambling along until we get to 'Epitaph One'!
More successfully, Zombieland is doing well at the box office, and it deserves to. I saw it Sat night and had a great time. It's not quite Shaun of the Dead, but then, it's very American just as that movie is very British. Here there are lots of big SUVs and guns. Guns, guns, guns. Still, in a zombie apocalypse, that's so not the stupidest thing to have with you. The cast does a bang-up job, and there's a great cameo by a fabulous actor.
