FORGOTTEN SCI FI TV PRESENTS: "Dollhouse" (2009)

Dollhouse is an American science fiction television series created by Joss Whedon, which aired on Fox for two seasons despite facing cancellation. The show centers on Actives, individuals in a secret facility who are programmed with temporary personalities for various assignments and whose memories are regularly erased. The narrative primarily follows Echo, an Active who begins to develop self-awareness, and explores themes of identity against a backdrop of corporate intrigue and the ethical implications of mind-wiping technology. As an FBI agent investigates the organization and a rogue Active poses a threat, the second season expands on the dangers of this technology and the Rossum Corporation's ambitions, culminating in a dystopian future and a fight for survival. Despite its short run, Dollhouse offers a unique exploration of personhood within a compelling sci-fi framework.
