Scifi.com have an article in which Joss Whedon reveals that the show is not another “Alias“, and will have it’s own identity, even if part of that identity is asking ‘who am I?’:
“That’s really what the show is about. It’s about plumbing the depths of our identity.”
“It’s sort of taking the role of a Frankenstein monster and saying, ‘Who am I? Who created me? Why am I like this? What’s good about me? What’s bad about me? What’s eternal about me? And what’s just evanescent?’..And everyone in the show is dealing with that same issue, but for a different reason. That, to me, is the heart of the thing: ‘Well, who are we?’”
“There will be a flow-through of the show as well, about [Echo] and the characters surrounding her and how the Dollhouse works, how it doesn’t work, and her burgeoning self-awareness..Between these engagements, she’s this complete innocent and starts to go, ‘Hey, here I am in the Garden of Eden. What’s this apple, and what do I do with it?’
