It wasn't love at first sight, yes. I do think it'll grow on me, though. I think it'll surprise. Just... Joss can't have all instant successes, right? Maybe this one is a sleeper success. ;)

I'm actually getting quite a bit of an Alias vibe from it so far, and I'm down with that. I wouldn't mind if it kept feeling like Alias.

I'm also intrigued by Amy Acker's doctor. Former doll, perhaps?

I am also intrigued! I hadn't considered her being a former Active, but it was implied that former Actives exist, no? Hmm... interesting thought.
