I've only watched the pilot ep - twice at this point (I kinda tricked my sweetie into watching it with me the second time. And I enjoyed it more the second time which says a LOT.) eilowyn is the one who told me about it and that I needed to watch it. She was right as usual.

It's just about everything Dollhouse should have been, except completely different in every single way, if that makes sense.

I was thinking the exact same thing except about Ringer ("It's Ringer but actually good.") And I've never even seen Dollhouse but my reaction after the pilot was that it was "If Ringer and Dollhouse had a lovechild, this be it."
