I saw the first few but didn't get pulled in. I take it it's worth the time investment to let it grab you? How far in to first season before it hits?

(and maybe it's too late now... too bad if it's cancelled)

You have to get to episode 5 of season 1 before the show finally turns inward on the dollhouse. Once it stops being episodic and starts developing an arc it gets really good. I just watched S2E4. Also, there is an unaired episode out there which reveals where the show is going. The reason its so good is that you cease wondering where its going and start to focus on how it got there.

Honestly, if this is allowed to play out I will easily give it second place to B5 for best series ever. It's got the potential to go higher on my list.

I've only just watched S2 E2, but yeah, despite occasional "this shouldn't happen quite this way" bits, it is *awesome*.

To the other guy, I liked it better than some did at the beginning (especially the thief episode) but it did indeed get *much* better the second half of the first season, and the unaired ep is *great*, probably the best I've seen so far.

Any chance you can use your writers' contacts to get through the SGU writers that they are totally fucking up?
