‘Buffy’ is Back! ...Sort Of

(andPOP) - Buffyverse fans never lost their Faith, and now creator Joss Whedon has returned with a new show starring "Buffy" and ‘Angel’ co-star Eliza Dushku.

Entitled "Dollhouse," it will be just as bizzarre and wonderfully creative as tales of the vampire slayer. This is what Fox has to say on the plot:

"Echo (Dushku) [is] a young woman who is literally everybody's fantasy. She is one of a group of men and women who can be imprinted with personality packages, including memories, skills, language - even muscle memory - for different assignments. The assignments can be romantic, adventurous, outlandish, uplifting, sexual and/or very illegal. When not imprinted with a personality package, Echo and the others are basically mind-wiped, living like children in a futuristic dorm/lab dubbed the Dollhouse, with no memory of their assignments - or of much else. The show revolves around the childlike Echo's burgeoning self-awareness, and her desire to know who she was before, a desire that begins to seep into her various imprinted personalities and puts her in danger both in the field and in the closely monitored confines of the Dollhouse."

Seven episodes have already been ordered. With any luck, the show will take off, unlike Whedon’s previous offering, "Firefly."
