io9 — ... becoming another person. I thought: Oh, look! There's Eliza Dushku with glasses and her hair in a bun! As someone who suffered through as much Tru Calling as I could handle (That'd be about ten minutes, if you're curious), I have to concede Poniewozik's point. After all the back-and-forth about shooting delays because of scripts not being good enough, will its star ultimately be its undoing? Image from Entertainment Weekly.
