Der whedonesque-Thread ist mal wieder spitze:
So here we are with everything we have been told about the Dollhouse and people are still saying it does good. So on one side we have people being condescending that anyone could criticize this show by asserting that it is presenting this kind of exploitation in a way that could be interpreted as saying it is ok, while at the same time we have people saying that the show is great because it has examples showing that this kind of exploitation can be ok and that creates gray areas. Neither group seems to see a problem here even while they are making these assertions on the same thread. Interesting.

GBD going good or bad?
So I asked Tudyk if Alpha isn't, in some sense, right about being godlike. Or at least, the next step in human evolution. And Tudyk said that Alpha has the ability to be godlike, in one sense, but all of his amazing abilities come with a lot of baggage:
When you're downloading a bunch of people, you're downloading perspective and experience. Somebody can go through one experience and have one conclusion about it, and another person can go through that experience and have a different conclusion. Somebody can become enlightened, and somebody else can become a villian. I think he takes the wrong lessons from his downloaded experiences. He is certainly evolved, but i don't know. The swine flu is evolution, isn't it? In a way, it's an evolution of flu.
Easy as that.
