A secret facility, the Dollhouse, erases the personalities of Echo and her fellow "actives" so they can assume any relevant personas they may be assigned in engagements that cater to the wealthy, powerful and well-connected. After each assignment, the actives are subjected to another personality wipe so they can enter the next scenario with no memory of an earlier one. At least, that's the plan -- but as the series unfolds, Echo's memory begins to return, and she slowly starts piecing together her true identity.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Dollhouse feels more confident as a perverse mind-teaser in its second season after injecting its automatons with more humanity and broadening its mythology.

Scott Tobias AV Club There's something to be said for the heady rush of getting a lot of business done fast; in fact, the task of wrapping up the show in a season has given Dollhouse an urgency that it sorely needed from the beginning. Rated: A- Sep 19, 2019 Full Review Brian Tallerico HollywoodChicago.com The cast is very talented and Whedon is still one of the best TV creators of the last twenty years. But the show needs to settle on a tone. Stop trying to have it both ways. Rated: 2.5/5 Sep 19, 2019 Full Review James Poniewozik TIME Magazine It is to the tremendous credit of Dollhouse and Joss Whedon that it got me to care, greatly, about these challenging, and fascinatingly mutable, characters. Partly that owes to the show's storytelling brio and writing. Sep 19, 2019 Full Review Charlie Jane Anders io9.com Who knew that Joss Whedon's darkest, sickest show would turn out to be his most optimistic and life-affirming? Sep 19, 2019 Full Review Kelly West CinemaBlend While we can look back on Dollhouse and think of what might have been, had Fox given the show more time to grow, at least we got solid (albeit rushed) ending, which is more than can be said for a lot of great shows out there. Sep 19, 2019 Full Review Eric Goldman IGN Movies Dollhouse definitely feels stronger now than it did for much of Season One, with a more layered storyline... Dollhouse is still not 100 percent there yet, as far as truly being appointment TV, but the positives are beginning to take root. Rated: 8/10 Sep 19, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
