I really like the actors that he is using, but having seen them in various shows or movies before, I am now recognizing that most of them operate well within a very limited range. None of them are playing characters that I like. The ethical challenges would be more interesting if these characters were more heroic. And the story has become convoluted in that typical epsionage hall of mirrors sort of way. And the inherent concept of the Dollhouse strains credibility. The concept is too controversial for the general public to tolerate, but the company somehow has no problem marketing to a wide range of upper middle class and rich clients. It's possible that the show is building towards a satisfying conclusion, but given my current level of dissatisfaction, that seems unlikely.
I read somewhere that the series should be watched in a different order, or something about apocalyptic foreshadowing. I put off watching it until I found out more, and now am wondering if I just imagined it.

With Daily Show over, I'm so lost as to what to watch anymore. I'm just playing video games mostly now. Gonna sign up for some dance classes instead. Time to meet some people.
Like ball room dancing? Or like breakdancing?
Get the Crackle app on your Xboner. Watch Comedians in Cars getting Coffee.

Irish dancing. One guy for every 24 girls bouncing around in boxer shorts. It's heaven.

Nice. I hope this goes better than that pole dancing class you took.

Nope. I recall that too. Fox was supposed to have aired the first season of the show out of order, which you can see in the production numbering. Something about front-loading action-oriented episodes.
Honestly, I watched about half of the first season, and I don't think it really would have mattered. That show was a hot mess. Made Alias look like it made sense.

I didn't realize there was a new season yet so I just watched all of season six. Great stuff. The Jim Carrey episode was really bizarre but my favourite was the Julia Louis Dreyfus one and I thought it was super cool that she dropped the B. Kliban reference and then they showed one of his comics...

It's about the Columbian drug cartels and a DEA agent in the early 80's.
I have seen Cocaine Cowboys and read Killing Pablo, both non fictional accounts of the same time period and I'm very impressed how closely this show is following the actual events at least as relating to the two sources I mention. The acting is very good so far and as Hotseat mentions the production quality is top notch. It would not surprise me if it were filmed on location in Columbia.

It was great to see their friendship. I'm starting to think that Jim Carrey has crossed the line from quirky to "needs help." He's almost as annoying as Robin Williams.
