Considering Moving Out of the DOLLHOUSE

Here’s a sad truth. If DOLLHOUSE weren’t on Friday night I don’t think I would be watching anymore. The show isn’t working for me. I gave the pilot the benefit of the doubt. I didn’t love, but didn’t hate it. It was just ok. Parts of the second episode were better than the premiere and I was encouraged by that. But here we are with the third episode of the season and the missteps with this show are not only glaring but they are erasing all my good will for the show.
Hokey plot lines aside, I personally am having a big issue with the acting. It’s weak. It’s false. It’s distracting. I could understand if maybe one of the actors was having trouble finding his or her footing, but when it’s three or four then I think it’s a big problem. And when the lead actress, the one carrying the show is one of the weak spots, then you’ve got a disaster on your hands.
I’m starting to realize that I enjoyed last week’s episode because it was mainly focused on Eliza Dushku/Action Star and didn’t rely on Eliza Dushku/Serious Actress. With all respect to Eliza, whom I’ve enjoyed in the roles I’ve seen her in thus far, I just don’t think she is in the zone. Something is off. There’s a desperation in her scenes that seems to result in her overacting. Maybe it’s the pressure of carrying a show. I don’t know. But I do know that for me, it’s blatant.
As I’ve mentioned in every DOLLHOUSE review to date, Fran Kranz’s Topher is still the weakest link. Off the charts overacting on his part. And this week we finally got a little more from Sierra. I was left wanting even less from Sierra. Thank God for Harry Lennix (Echo’s handler Boyd Langdon) who seems to save many scenes just by showing up.
Honestly, I don’t want to be down on DOLLHOUSE. I truly want to love it! And I don’t think at this point I’m swayed by false expectations or the fact that it’s a Joss Whedon show and I want something extraordinary. The show is just not doing it for me.
