B O R I N G
why doesn’t he write on the toilet if he wants to be alone
You’re ruining the fantasy! D=
Yes and No. Yes the actives are reset back to dolls but I show doesn’t reset even the dolls grow episode by episode.
I know my family calls Joss Josh.
And household name?
No one but geeks know Joss’ name. Geeks with good taste, but geeks.
Buffy movie an instant hit LMAO. I love Joss’s view on things.
I don’t think he ment the “resent button” from Dollhouse, he meant “reset shows.” Those shows where everything is back to normal in the end of every episode, and theres no real continuation story. Like some sit-coms for example
Dollhouse has a overlaying storyline, since she’s trying to find her identity.
Yes and no. While the dolls themselves reset, I think the interesting parts of the story will come from the supporting staff as well as the story arc about the dolls recollecting their past engagements.
Topher, DeWitt, Boyd, Dr. Saunders and to a much lesser extent Ballard are the characters that won’t be reseting every week.
I think it’s a common trope that you take what you most hate, and try to work through it, and somehow overcome it.
it is strange when you think that joss hates the reset button, but that is what the whole concept of dollhouse essentially is..
Yeah, that’s probably where he got ideas for most of Buffy’s weapons. =P
omg that book in the background that says “WEAPONS”…
I think a friend of mine actually had that book! It’s actually really helpful for people who run RPG campaigns cause it’s got a huge history of historical melee weapons from around the world.
I actually thought of that book a lot when I watched Buffy cause the melee weapons they used I’d already seen in that book before.
I agree with Joss, don’t get me wrong, I love sit coms such as “Cheers”, “How I Met Your Mother”, and “Friends”. However, the reason I think Joss’ series along with series’ like “Smallville” and other seralized television connects with people is because it is about human experience, learning, growth, and change. If television series were turned into audiobooks for Microsoft Zunes and Apple iPods. Sitcoms would be listed as memoirs. And seralized TV would be listed under fiction/non-fiction.
Thanks.
Joss always inspires me with his take on the creative process. Dollhouse hasn’t been shown here in Oz yet, may have to resort to more nefarious ways to get it…
Sweetguy9009 – all the very best with pursuing a career in TV!!!
3:20 is my opinion too.
it airs on feb 13th on american tv
Joss was story Editor and he wrote 4 episodes on Roseanne in the late 90′s.
so did joss create roseanne or something? and when is dollhouse playing on tv?
Thank you for this! Check out my Dollhouse fanvids and fan-ads.
Me too, I didn’t know what I wanted to do with my life like a lot of sixteen, seventeen year olds do. I’m still not completely sure. But I do know I want to work in television. And create my own television series. If I do that my dream will come true.

Joss Whedon, the man who made me want to be a filmmaker. Great video, and great insight into Joss, my biggest idol. Can’t wait for more.
