It's kind of fascinating watching people in the fandom twist themselves into knots.
There are those who do watch for the total trainwreck factor, and totally own the skeevy, which is totally cool IMHO.
And then there's that hardcore "Whedon is My Master Now" group who is trying to convince the world that it's not really skeevy, you just think it's skeevy but really it's not because it's a Criticism of Big Hollywood (?!?) or a meta-commentary on how Women are Exploited by the Patriarchy (?!?), which you should know because Eliza Dushku is blinking in code. Or something.
Seriously, the Whedonesque comment threads on Dollhouse is like stepping through the looking glass. For the first time ever, the LJ fans are the sane ones.
