But let's face it, it does cover some of the same territory that Dark Angel did- Raven-haired beauty searching for herself, skin views for the adolescents, The Questionable Secret Organization, cool fighting, gunplay, not-quite-but-almost-there science, and, er, did I mention skin views for the adolescents?
DA was just larger in scope, probably due to the budget thrown into Cameron's lap, and the casting & chemistry was spot on from jump.

Your love for Dark Angel puzzles me. It was average in it's first season. Second season....unwatchable.
Equaling A really good idea translating to a mediocre show that went down hill so fast that it makes heads spin.

I do agree abut the similarities of Dollhouse and DA. They are similar, but I promise you if we see a second season of Dollhouse it will blow Dark Angel off the face of the earth. Forever.

Chuck tv; Has it’s moments and is still interesting enough . Don’t think I’d given it the time of day had it not been for Adam Baldwin as agent Casey in the first episode. Still descent enough to tune in Monday nights.

Second season, I agree. But watch it according to my list above, & its quality stays a good deal more consistent, though.

Examples? Okay, the hip-hop speak was very forced, and now dates the show horrible. The acting was often mediocre. Plots were, to me, unmemorable (as I watched the whole series less than 6 months ago, and barely remember any of it outside a few episodes). Most of the supporting characters were forgettable or annoying. It, at times, tried too hard to be the next Buffy, especially with the not-very-funny one liners.

It was a fun enough show, but by the end I wasn't itching for more, and there are many, many shows I think are better.

it had some memorable episodes, usually involving Max's bittersweet reunions with fellow escapees, or the flare-ups of her assorted programming flaws -- like the feline DNA that occasionally put her ''in heat'' or the chemical deficiencies that sometimes strung her out like a junkie. That's when this dark angel revealed the stuff of any good superheroine: her vulnerability, her imperfection, her humanity.

It never ceases to amaze me how much mileage you squeeze out of every single DA thread. I am truly stunned.
