• Summer Glau is a great actress. Yes Dollhouse already has its share of beautiful women, but Summer brings something more to the screen. She has a certain charisma and energy that draws you into her character and into the story. As far as the previous shows she has had roles in their cancellation was not due to her. In fact, I think she was the main draw to TSCC (Lena Heady, Thomas Dekker and the rest of the cast did great but imo Summer was the star of the show).

• Whedon actor or not, I'd seriously love to find her in my bedroom when I get home tonight. That would be peachy. But I still won't watch Dollhouse. I can think of many things that would be far less torturous than sitting through Whedon's shitty dialogue- Like stabbing myself in the left nut with a rusty kitchen knife, for instance.

• <quote>she cant act isn't hot firefly sucked</quote> ...And you're an Asshole who is too cowardly to put his name on his postings. Care to have any other opinions other than blanket comments? Anyway, I've recently become a fan of <i>Firefly/Serenity</i>, and I have to say that whereas at the beginning of <i>Firefly</i> had River grating a bit on my nerves, she grew as a character and in her acting skill by the time the film came round. The scene with her chained up after attacking everyone in the bar, crying with Simon was very heartbreaking. She has the abilities to be a good actress, but since she plays Batshit Crazy so well, she unfortunately gets pigeon-holed with those roles. Being an actor myself, I realize the problems that one has with fitting a certain type so well you can't break free, as it is she'd played someone who's been mentally vacant of inhibitions and emotions in two separate shows. Not exactly something that exercises the acting chops. Perhaps Whedon won't reuse her same character type, but she really needs something different in order to shine. And I'm sure, as a serious actor, she'd bemore than apt and willing to take on that type of task. ~JYH

• she cant act isn't hot firefly sucked

• Yay, another chance to see Glau's stunt double who looks nothing like her in badly-choreographed fight scenes!

• Potential Spoilers Below Something must be wrong with me. I found the initial five episodes of Dollhouse more enjoyable than most of the later ones. They're cheesy, sure, but at least there's enough of an element of mystery there for Echo to still be interesting. The more I learn about her original self the less I care. I also felt like Dominic's firing did a disservice to the show, both by removing Langton from the action and losing a good antagonist to Echo. I will say that the setup for Season 2 is really good, even if I didn't see what was so great about the unaired finale (I had to will myself through it).

• RobP — I'd like to think I'm the same as normal. I'm not hating on this news, I'm just not excited by it. But again, I genuinely like the show, so I'm looking forward to it — I just don't have enough info to know how Glau is going to improve it.

• Excellent this now means Dollhouse is done for, everything Summer Glau is in gets cancelled, honestly I have nothing against Josh Whedon but I hate Josh Whedon fans because they all are squeeing fanboys and girls so I want all of his shows to fail.

• That pose has me spinning. Hands free.

• Interesting "action pose." Van Damme must be spinning in his grave.

• yeah, i remember the last time i did splits in the air while shooting two guns. Commando shooting while dancing ballerina dancing... those were the days...

• "RobP said: Alan Tudyk" ORLY? Guess I'll have to give it a spin on Netflix...

• &#64;Gleeman, the second half of Dollhouse season 1 really is that good. I yelled some variation of WTF! or Holy Shit! several times in the course of a couple episodes. If the name Alan Tudyk means anything to you, you should suffer through the first five episodes and finish the season. Well, except that Most Dangerous Game rip-off of an episode-- that really is just awful. To Rob: You seem so much more bitter sense the Rob Liefeld debacle. So much more that you're even pooing on GOOD news like this. What's the deal?

• Honestly, I am burned out on Joss Whedon and hearing his name everywhere. Does this guy sleep at night or take vacations at Area 51?

• I'm just glad there's another chance to see Glau kick ass again. On the other hand... Dollhouse is as good as canceled.

• I like Summer Glau and I loved Terminator:SCC. It's become something of a joke with my friends to randomly mention the shows name and watch my sad, sad eyes as they look towards the ground. Goddamn you, Fox. I watched the first season of Dollhouse and while I liked it alright enough it also felt pretty underwhelming. Why Whedon would even go back to Fox after their handling of Firefly is beyond me.

• &#64;Korinthian What picture are you looking at. Because the picture that I see is totally realistic and could happen to anyone that walks down the mean streets of the USA. And she is hot.

• Hi, I just wanted to stop by to comment on how awesome that picture is. Hmm, Summer split.

• Hi, I just wanted to stop by to comment on how dumb that picture is.

• Yay! I'm excited because she's a really fantastic actress that hasn't really gotten to show her chops much since Serenity. I can't wait for her to wow me again, and I know that Joss will create some juicy material for her to work with. He's truly an actor's writer/director, he loves to stretch them and see what they can do.

• "On the other hand, I am glad that Whedon managed to cast a skinny brunette, though, as Dollhouse was severely lacking in those." I see what you did there, etc... Dollhouse...meh...but any show with Summer is hard to turn down. Might have to give it another try, was the 2nd half of Season 1 really any better? Because I gave up after that episode when that guy was hunting Alpha in the woods.

• "I know the news will please Whedonites and Firefly fans, but I'm not that excited..." I'm sorry to hear about your accident. Rest assured that paraplegics can live quite productive lives...

• Between the 'F' alliteration and the picture above, I thought Fan Fiction Friday had come a day early. I've become conditioned in a sick Pavlovean way.
