Premiering on Fox in 2009, Joss Whedon's Dollhouse was an
innovative, contentious and short-lived science fiction series
whose themes were challenging for viewers from the outset. A vast
global corporation operates establishments (Dollhouses) that
program individuals with temporary personalities and abilities. The
protagonist assumes a different identity each episode-her defining
characteristic a lack of individuality. Through this obtuse
premise, the show interrogated free will, morality and sex, and in
the process its own construction of fantasy and its audience. A
decade on, the world is-for better or worse-catching up with
Dollhouse's provocative vision. This collection of new essays
examines the series' relevance in the context of today's social and
political issues and media landscape.
