It isn’t playtime in The Dollhouse anymore. Stars Eliza Dushku and Tamoh Penikett are promising that, after some growing pains in the freshman season, Dollhouse is darker, racier and rougher than ever for Season 2.“I just finished episode 3 and I'm proud of the show already,” Dushku told TVGuideMagazine.com. “It's different, it's racier and it's deeper. We found that rhythm and now we're just blowing it out of the water.
“Everyone is really in their skin and comfortable playing around with the light and the dark,” she explained, noting series creator Joss Whedon nailed the show’s stride in its final first-season episode. “The cast all settled in to their roles, and then in the 13th episode things shot into the future and everyone got an idea where they might go - the dark places – and everyone came back with a confidence.”
That confidence meant a willingness to push the boundaries, action-wise: “I learned how to beat up boys using a private jet as a weapon,” she chuckles. “I beat these guys with a jet. I got married in one of the first episodes. I had beaucoup bruises and bumps and fights already.”
As far as the racier side, Dushku makes it sounds motherly for a moment before her big reveal. “I was shooting with babies this week, which was interesting and different, and there was an actual what-people-do-with-babies thing going on.” She pulled at her shirt collar to flash a little skin and laughed. “There was a lot going on!”
There’s also a possible romance brewing. “Tahmoh's in The Dollhouse now and there's a lot of chemistry, a lot of things building with Echo and Agent Ballard, so that's a little tease,” she said, adding “I'm teased, too. I don't know what's going to happen. Joss will come in and start snickering and whistling.”
“I just read the fourth episode a few days ago and it's awesome,” agreed Penikett. “It's dark. I'm going to tell you: this is really one of the darker things that Joss Whedon has done. At the same time because there's a brilliant writing staff they manage to have some light moments.”
Penikett’s also looking forward to a reunion of sorts with his Battlestar Galactica co-stars on Dollhouse. “We've got Jamie Bamber in the first episode and then we have Michael Hogan in the second episode,” he said. “I'd definitely like to take credit for that but it wasn't like that. Joss Whedon is a huge fan of Battlestar and ultimately it was about him wanting to bring in some very talented actors who were great for the parts. It's awesome because for both of them it's very much a departure from the characters that they play on Battlestar.”
