It's 1:30 in the morning and I'm extremely tired and sick to boot, but I just finished the series. I'm in awe. Seriously Whedon's best work so far. Season 2 was incredible- what plot twists! I'm going to bed now because I'm so tired, but I'll write more tomorrow. I'm going to fall asleep with a smile on my face.

I'm in full concurrence and very happy to hear someone think the same 😀 Can't wait to hear more of what you think.

Well, first of all Topher grew me enough that he is one of my favorite characters. And Adele really surprised me in season 2. Olivia is such a good actor- you really believe her when

. I loved Epitaph Two. I previously said that I didn't like Epitaph One, but that's because I think it's confusing- it comes at the end of season 1, it has these new characters who I have no idea who they are, and I don't understand the plot. In light of the entire series and Epitaph Two in particular, it makes a lot of sense. Given that the show got cancelled, I think they did a very, very nice job of wrapping up storylines in those final episodes. Eliza's performance in the final episode was superb. Of course, I was so sad that

Mellie and Paul died at the end, but not so much about Topher- that seemed fitting that he would sacrifice himself trying to save the world. Made him a hero (reminds me of Doyle's character in ATS- an unlikely hero).

Did Joss shop around for another network when Fox announced its cancellation? I wonder if he'd considering doing a miniseries of some sort? It's only been a year since it's cancellation- really Dollhouse has a better chance than Firefly or any other Whedon show of continuing in some sort of non-comic medium. And speaking of that, is there any other way to get my hands on the comic other than purchasing season 2? Although I'd love to purchase both seasons!

Hi guys, slowly working my way through the box set just now 🙂
Finished 'Needs' (1.8) last night and though it was an excellent episode, I really think it improves more and more as the season goes on. I am hooked on it so far and am disappointed that I know there isnt the same amount of it to watch like Buffy or Angel.
Eliza Dushku is amazing in it, shows a real depth to her acting and she plays so many characters so well. Enver Gjokaj is another amazing actor. Hadnt heard of him before DH but will definitely look out for him in future. Topher is also a great character, really like him..
Man on the Street has been my favourite episode so far, so much happened and a great twist at the end. Also, the Paul/Echo fight was excellent.
Thats about it for just now, probably have loads more to say but in a hurry just now. Will be back with more the further on I get 🙂
