I've mentioned that Firefly and Terminator: TSCC's Summer Glau is joining the crew, but she'll also be joined by Angel's Alexis Denisof, Jamie Bamber from the new Battlestar Galactica and now... Ray Wise.
If you were turned off by the first half of Dollhouse -- and man, I couldn't blame you -- I still think you have to check out the show again when the season premiere hits on September 25th. With this cast, this is effectively a whole new show -- and one that sounds incredibly awesome. Ray fucking Wise, man.

I was watching "Dollhouse" from the very beginning and THANK GOD it got better. The last aired episode from season one was awesome because you could totally tell Joss Whedon was all, "Well, hey, it's getting canceled so let's just pull out all the stops and kick some ass!"
Then FOX was all, "Wait! That was awesome! Welcome to season two!"
And then Whedon was all, "... uh, what? FUCK. Time to bring in the extra awesome!"
I can't wait.

Dollhouse just left a bad taste in my mouth, Even when it got good it wasn't great. Even with the new cast additions I still don't have faith of it being great hell good might be pushing it.
But it does have the devil from reaper in it, so I will watch it, just like heroes no matter how bade it is I will watch

Damn you Rob! Always messing up my netflix queue!
Now, not only am I gonna have to add Dollhouse, but it will also have to be bumped to the top, so that I am caught up for the premiere.
Ray Wise is a P-I-M-P.
Damn I loved me some Reaper, and Wise was second only to Sok on that show.

I will watch almost anything just because Ray Wise is in it. Just yesterday I saw a fairly good monster movie called infestation. It pretty much went "This is good, good, good, HOLY SHIT IT'S RAY WISE!, awesome, awesome". He instantly increases the quality of something a hundred times over when he shows up.

I miss Reaper. Dollhouse is a turd made by an attractive girl. You like where it's coming from, but the end result is still shit.

I just watched the original pilot from the DVD and it made me what to cry for the wasted half-season it pretty much contained in full.
I know Whedon said it was his own idea to re-shoot it, but I can't help but see echoes (hah, me funny) of the Firefly pilot re-do.
I cannot wait for Season 2.

I met Ray Wise once at the Giant Eagle in Akron. He was buying flowers for his mom. He is a fucking cool dude.

The Great A'Tuin is just itching to be banned from Yiffstar, as he never got the whole fascination. said:

Now they just need Nathan Fillion, Mike Nelson, and David Boreanez to make this uncontrollably nerdgasmic.

I'm not into the Josh Whedon's cult, I was never a Buffy fan, I watched a random episode once or twice, but by golly gosh! he hired Leland Palmer!!!
"You're going back to Missoula. MONTANA!"
Ray Wise is a class act, a very talented actor and he can play charming types & creeps too, both with ease. And a huge David Lynch/Twin Peaks geek so Josh catch my interest.
Will Whedon bring on Grace Zabriskie too? That would be awesome!

As much as I liked Dollhouse, considering it's airing on Fridays after "'Til Death," I'm more thinking it's "as much awesome as possible before inevitable cancellation."

I'm so ridiculously excited for all of these people. Especially Alexis Denisof, because Wesley was always my favorite Whedon character. That arch!
But holy fucking shit, this Ray Wise news is awesome. Fuck Reaper. He'll always be Leland Palmer to me!

After Epitaph 1 they either better do a different future ep every year or show it to be a dream sequence or the whole show it totally pointless.

WTF? I thought this site was for nerds & geeks, but after reading it for the past few weeks it is obvious that it is just another case of a***holes trying to appeal to nerds/geeks while they themselves are in reality sucking from the teat of the crap-fest that is mainstream sci-fi. Just because something is well marketed does not mean it is even worthy of consideration by nerds and geeks. Perfect examples that this site seems to love despite their suckiness would be: Halo (a franchise that despite Microsoft marketing is still as shallow and mediocre as the FPS that started it), Dollhouse (The hotness of certain C-grade actresses cannot possibly make up for the horrible writing and bad acting; sad to see such a premise go to waste), and speaking of disappointment Heroes suffers from the same issues, only to a lesser degree.
Sorry to rant, but I thought I'd found a place that valued nerdiness, dissapointment should have been expected.
