Dollhouse
Have you watched this show? I missed the first episode when it aired last week and I was most annoyed. Then SarahK told me to look on hulu.com. Sure enough they are posting the shows which is a wonderful thing for people like me who can't remember when stuff is on. This is a show that is difficult to follow if you don't watch from the beginning.
Therefore, if you haven't seen it:
This is a link to the first episode.
The second episode has been posted too and is on that same page. I may just watch them again.
My take, without spoilers. I love it. Terrific dialog (as Joss Whedon fans expect), lots of action - most excellent non-pc action.
You do have to pay attention, especially in the first episode. It's pretty choppy at the beginning. Stick with it, it will make more sense later. I'm betting it will make even more sense by the end of the season.
The second episode contains a number of flashbacks which I finally got the hang of after figuring out that the "background" lighting was a more sepia toned hue when they jumped to those. Duh... sometimes I'm a tad slow on the uptake.
The second episode also has one of the BEST lines I've heard in a television show in... forever. Anyone who saw it will know the line I mean. It's worth it to watch both shows just to get that one line.
Go watch and enjoy.

H and I have been tracking the show forever, back when we read a rumor on some Joss Whedon fansite. Anything he writes, I'm pretty much a fan of before I even see it, and 110% thereafter.
You've seen Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog, yes? Another example
Back to Dollhouse- yep. It's gooooood.

Okay, I have to admit I haven't watched Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog. I've been meaning to, just haven't quite found the time. Maybe in the next week or so. Thanks for the reminder. LOL.

I'm gonna second the thumbs-up on Dr. Horrible.
Also, the flashback issue wasn't just you. Beloved Wife had to ask me a couple times about whether a scene was past or present.
