I'm reading the S8 comics not because I'm enjoying the story but just so I can enter into the conversation. It's been an up-and-down ride for me with some issues being really good and some being way too full of WTFery.
I think you're very right about Joss's disregard for a true arc. I would have liked to have seen something with regard to the Scythe and the Guardians, but, whoops, sorry, old lady dead now, let's move on. sigh.
Joss can be a great storyteller, but I'm really not going to fall in love with Dollhouse because I just don't trust him (or Fox) enough to expend that much energy. I'll watch it mostly likely to be able to join in the conversation the same as I'm doing for S8. Perhaps I'll even like it, but I hope I don't fall in love with it. I like my heart in my chest where it belongs. Not torn out and rips to shreds by Joss Whedon.
