My, here's a bit of news made out of sunshine: apparently Alan 'Wash' Tudyk will be playing the role of Alpha!

Didn't Alan himself say he wasn't going to be on Dollhouse? Since when is Joss secretive about this type of stuff? I don't buy it. I think it's a prank.

I always knew Wash would be resurrected from the grave. Joss has a habit of undead actors.

Well, it was posted on Whedonesque, and they have rules about submitting BS:

Seems pretty genuine to me.

N.B. And to quote gossi on Whedonesque:

"In case there’s any confusion about this – Alan told the Farpoint convention recently he wouldn’t be in Dollhouse at all. He lied. He actually told the crowd this after Joss announced Alan was in Dollhouse himself."

FOX exec:
Sir, we have that pilot from Mr. Whedon. Shall I run it for you, Mr. Yenehc?

Cheney (darkly lit to conceal features):
I have already seen it. Make him re-do it. By the numbers. *snickers*

FOX exec:
But sir, it seems like a winner to me.*gulps*

Cheney:
I say who wins on this station. Me. I am the decider.
Mr. Whedon will not be allowed to premier with his best work.
We must draw it out...let him fall.

FOX exec:
Sort of what Dick Cheney did to George Bush, right, heh heh?

Cheney:
*

Why...yes. A genius, that one. [evil music begins]

FOX exec:
But sir, how will our network profit from Whedon's failure?

Cheney:
Boy, the value of another creative Liberal losing credibility with the entertainment establishment cannot be measured in mere money.
MU HU HU HA HA HA!!!

I didn't think it was much better than the pilot, that is to say not very good. Perhaps I'm missing something. We'll see again on Friday.

Cut/pasting my response from another Dollhouse thread...and I'm glad someone else got the "The Most Dangerous Game" connection!

Paste:

I gotta admit...I'm just not seeing at all what many of you seem to be.

Ep2 was just a remake of The Most Dangerous Game, a short story that's been remade onto film about 50 times. It was stunningly unoriginal material from a guy that's always impressed me with his originality.

I still have faith, but so far the show has been a HUGE disappointment on several levels. Elisha has been...eh, ok I guess. The "did I fall asleep?" meme sounds forced and stilted every time she says it. The FBI agent's role has been shoehorned in, and again is a very, very common plot element.

I guess I was expecting a lot more from a show with such an original idea. So far it's been a very formulaic, common show. Only two episodes so, I hope the REALLY good stuff is still on the horizon.

Joss is back!

Between this hilarious, well-timed line and seeing Badger elsewhere in the episode (yeah, his accent did sound kinda forced, but I forgive him), I'm sticking around for more this week. It may not be a comedy series, but that doesn't mean Joss can't sneak in comic relief. I liked this episode significantly better than the pilot.

For commercials.... well, I actually streamed it from Fox the next day since I was introducing my parents to Firefly the night "The Target" aired. :) So I didn't have to worry about commercials, and since I'm not a Nielsen family/person I didn't feel too guilty about not watching it at original air time...
