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?!

      And here goes the "Won't someone think of the children" brigade. Get stuffed mate. This has NOTHING to do with making the internet safe. It's about tracking adults, spying on your online activity, and sending the boys around when they don't like something you post. Also, again, parliament have voted TWICE against this, and Starmer is going ahead anyway. THAT is anti-democratic bullsh**. They will use this law to track you, they will use this law to control you, and they will use this law to punish you if they don't like what you do, even if it's legal. And your data? Say bye bye to that. It'll be on the darkweb in weeks. I'm not some rando online. I've been an IT professional for 40 years, many of it in security. I know exactly what this means and what will happen to your data. I do not consent and I will not comply.

      "...but it may not be Microsoft's fault" seems like a reasonable way to tease what is going on without leaving the user with a false impression that an update is the problem. A title isn't a summery, it is meant to entice the user to read the article. It should not contain a misleading premise; which this title does not. You could maybe complain that the first paragraph should have included that detail. The writing style popularized over 100 years ago in newspapers will cover the most important information as soon as possible with details and nuance added later; the idea being that with each new paragraph you have less of the reader's focus.
    • Samsung Galaxy XR arrives in the UK with new AI and enterprise features

      By Fiza Ali · Posted

      Samsung Galaxy XR arrives in the UK with new AI and enterprise features by Fiza Ali Samsung is bringing its Galaxy XR headset to the UK several months after the device made its debut as the first headset built on Google's Android XR platform. The headset was first teased in late 2024 alongside Google's introduction of Android XR before making its commercial debut in 2025. Developed in collaboration with Google and Qualcomm, Galaxy XR combines mixed reality experiences with Gemini-powered AI features, allowing users to interact with digital content using voice, gestures, and visual inputs. While the hardware itself remains largely unchanged from the version Samsung unveiled last year, the company is using the UK launch to spotlight several software enhancements that have arrived through recent updates. Among the most notable additions is deeper integration with Google's ecosystem. Galaxy XR users can explore destinations through Google Maps' Immersive View, receiving AI-powered recommendations and contextual information from Gemini while navigating virtual environments. Furthermore, entertainment experiences have also expanded; users can watch 180-degree and 360-degree videos on YouTube, browse spatial content converted into 3D, and ask Gemini questions about on-screen content without interrupting playback. Samsung is also highlighting mixed-reality features such as Circle to Search, which allows users to identify real-world objects through hand gestures while using the headset's video pass-through mode. Another feature automatically converts photos and videos into spatial 3D experiences. Moreover, the headset now also supports Android Enterprise, allowing organisations to manage deployments using existing Android management tools. Annika Bizon, Vice President, Product and Marketing, Mobile Experience, Samsung UK & Ireland, talked about the device, stating: The headset is powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 platform and features dual 4K Micro-OLED displays. The tech giant says that users can expect up to 2.5 hours of battery life. Samsung also confirmed that Galaxy XR will continue receiving software and security updates as the company works alongside Google and Qualcomm to expand the Android XR ecosystem. Galaxy XR is now available for pre-order and will go on sale on 8 July. Customers interested in trying the headset before launch can visit Samsung KX in London and selected Samsung Experience Stores from 17 June. Finally, the company will also host a livestream on 19 June showcasing the headset's capabilities and answering questions from prospective customers.
