Top Ten New Shows of 2009: #9

My annual TV Awards, the AFT Television Awards, are given out during the summer. But this year, during both the spring and the fall, produced many impressive new television series. As 2009 closes out and 2010 begins, here’s a look back at the best new shows of the year.

#9: Dollhouse
Joss Whedon’s new series couldn’t possibly be as exciting as “Firefly,” but at times it came close. Any scenes with Amy Acker were far and away the most compelling, and the show recently raised fascinating questions of identity. It’s only now reaching its most thrilling, and unfortunately FOX has deemed it worthy of only three more episodes. At least the show produced the terrific installment “Epitaph One.”

Best Episode: “Epitaph One”
