Eliza Dushku as 'Echo' in Dollhouse: Gray Hour

Dollhouse continues to receive mixed reviews, though each subsequent episode seems to have been received (on the whole) better than the last.  The most recent episode, ‘Gray Hour’, did nothing to break the trend, that is if you don’t use viewer ratings to determine what is good and what isn’t.

I poured through plenty of reviews on this episode, and whilst some were unforgiving (and some extremely unforgiving), I felt Michelle Graham’s review over at Film School Rejects offered the most balanced viewpoint.

From Film School Rejects:

So yes, the episode suffered from a client of the week approach, yes the Agent Ballard storyline remains completely uninteresting and removed from the main and yes the Alpha teasing is cruel. However, despite the negative aspects, the 42 minutes spent in the Dollhouse this week were rewarding and informative.
