Doll of your dreams

If you are not watching Fox's show Dollhouse...Start. Now. At least just watch to see the lovely Dichen Lachman! (above)

If you know Joss Whedon's stuff- Dollhouse is right up there with Buffy and Astonishing X-Men. Still not convinced? How about a show that has to do with a large corporation where you can hire "dolls" that can have any personality programmed in them to accomplish any task you're willing to pay for. Anything from espionage to rescue missions or just a night of fun you'll never forget. Did I mention the rogue doll who's on the loose and has already massacred numerous people?

Dichen plays the role of Sierra, one of the dolls in the dollhouse. The dolls are actual people who had their minds wiped (supposedly) and are now under contract of the "house". Like the others, her past is vaguely explained and we are not sure as to why she decided to become a doll. Yes, it is voluntary (supposedly). Sierra gets to be all types of fun characters though, like bank robber extraordinaire Taffy. Watch her kick some ass and you'll fall in love.

Dichen is of Australian and Tibetan decent (hooray for hybrids!) and was a soap star in Australia before she got her stint on Dollhouse. She is gaining a lot of popularity and will hopefully make a big name for herself along with the show.

Dollhouse Season 2 premieres September 25th at 9/8c so check it out! A link to the season one dvd is at the bottom of the page.

This is one case where playing with dolls is "a-ok". m00g00.
