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?!

    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Epic Games is rolling out the latest major update to Unreal Engine 5 today, and at the same time, the company also dropped some information on the next-generation version of the product, Unreal Engine 6. This was already revealed a few weeks ago alongside the new Rocket League upgrade reveal. The company says it is combining the features of Unreal Engine and Unreal Editor for Fortnite to create this new version of its popular media creation tool. On top of creating entire games, the new engine will also focus on letting developers operate large-scale live service titles more easily, whether by shipping content into their own ecosystems or into Fortnite. The use of large language models is also mentioned here, with Epic saying it will be a core part of the engine. "We see LLMs, generative AI models, and tools like Claude and Codex playing a central role in helping you build content faster while maintaining the creative control you need," adds the company. Here is the rundown of what's new about version 6 of Unreal Engine: With all these changes to the programming model, portability upgrades, and generative AI integration, Epic says the new version of the engine will "change a lot about how games are made." The company aims to ship Unreal Engine 6 into early access in late 2027, with a full release planned for 12-18 months later. Epic Games also dropped a lengthy blog post about the new Unreal Engine 5.8 update for game developers over here. The release is focused on delivering better performance, customization, and streamlined workflows for development teams. This will be the final major update for this version of the engine before Epic switches to focus fully on Unreal Engine 6's early access launch.

      That is the thing, how many of these people don't realise they are using AI? If they use Google Search they have no choice but to use AI. So yes, maybe half of American adults do use and I expect a lot of Uk adults do to, but I bet most of them don't realise it. Myself, i avoid the rubbish.
