It was an alright finale, but I do think that's probably the last one we'll see. It's not that great of a show over all, but it did beat out anything else on tv for the time slot. If there's not a pilot that can replace it then show keep it going- hell it can only get better.

It was a good finale but it just didn't seem right.

Remember when Paul was being contacted by Laurence Dominic (The Dollhouse's head of security prior to Boyd) to find out the Dollhouse's purpose? What ever happened to that storey arc?

No more Millie? Everyone's on the hunt for Alpha? It seems like the interesting plots were wrapped up too quickly.

Anyone else agree?

I liked the season as a whole, and interesting twist in the story with Whiskey!

The one thing I don't think they really focussed on, was the self-awareness Echo is supposed to have gained in the Dollhouse. On the road to the pilot, that was one of the overriding themes that doesn't seem to have come into fruition.

In the last few scenes, I had a feeling it was Millie that Paul had organised to be set free, would have been way to simple to have been Caroline

All in all, good entertainment, here's hoping for a Season 2!

what? that's exactly what the finale was about!!! when alpha imprinted her with all those personalities, the result was just 'echo'. echo the one who 'remembers' pieces of the imprints and is more aware than the others. when alpha did it, it was like that echo finale came to life. it's like a personality different than caroline's, made out of residuals from all her imprints.

i dont thing it was dominic the one altering the imprints to contact paul. in fact, dominic told adele "if it wasnt for me he would have found you a lot sooner". There is obviously someone else, and it would've been nice to add that to the finale to leave a nice cliffhanger

Yeah it's probably over- It's a shame, but with those numbers I don't think Fox will renew it. Maybe it can be moved to another network.

Yeah but the fact remains it achieved much higher when SCC was on...its a great partnership (Y)

It did, but I would say that there's a good chance that Fox will renew TSCC and probably move it to another night. I don't see them keeping it on Friday. TSCC will probably lead-in for Fringe, and they'll probably put one of there new pilots on Friday. I just don't see them keeping this show UNLESS the DVR numbers are really amazing. I know TSCC got like a 80% increase in DVR numbers- If Fox does renew it and keep the show on Friday it's probably going to be canceled soon after.

I would rather see the show moved to another network so we can see a few more seasons (I wish the same for TSCC). The finale showed this show does have good writers, and would probably be amazing if we could get a season two, but I just don't think Fox likes Joss Whedon that much.

Spinoff could take over where the main show left off?

Radha: Dollhouse's chances of renewal are reportedly slim. Please, please say it isn't so! Do you have any happier news?

You know that 14th episode of Dollhouse that's set in a post-Apocalyptic universe and that won't be appearing on Fox network but will be included on the season-one DVD? Well, no one's officially confirming anything, and this is all still entirely in the theoretical dreamy dream stage, but reliable sources tell us exclusively that spinning off "Epitaph One" into a new series is "not exactly outside the realm of Joss? master plan." So even if Dollhouse proper doesn't get a pickup for season two, there might still be an alternate Dollverse for us to play in. What do you think of that?!

      I think every American should have a course in a 'dry sense of humour' at school; and perhaps 'using sarcasm in jest' oh, and also 'the use or irony in humour'.
    • Major Xbox layoffs may claim South of Midnight developer Compulsion entirely

      By PeterTHX · Posted

      What they really need to do is automatically spell "loses" and "lose" correctly since nobody seems to know how to anymore. Then they blame spellcheck/autocomplete and don't realize autocomplete is just filling in the word for them automatically so it was misspelled in the first place.
    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation

      By rseiler · Posted

      If someone chooses to continue using SB and therefore goes through the manual intervention in the thread, afterwards the BSOD problem is gone. Whether they then re-enable the task doesn't matter, they're done, though on such machines it might pay to keep it disabled in case the next update (if there is a next) causes the same problem. OTOH, if someone disables SB in the BIOS, the problem is also gone. Incidentally, I noticed that this task exists even on machines that don't support SB. It's just installed across the board...and runs. Doing what on such machines is a little hazy.
