I am going to have to see how the rest of the season pans out. I also think the MSRP is a deterrent. Huge selling point is the unaired pilot however.

I will vote yes, but really more for Joss Whedon than Eliza Dushku. Dusku is still hot and all, but this show really strains the limits of her acting ability.
This isn't Whedon's best work either, but it's passable enough and I want to support his efforts.

Yes........for now. I'm about 3 episodes behind. If the show doesn't start picking up, then I'm gonna change it to no

No thanks, I've been watching it on dvr. It's been a bit rough to get through the first time, no reason to pay for it and force my way through it a second time.

With the 13th episode now not even being given airtime, I think we can rename this release "Dollhouse: The Complete Series".

In any case, I will be renting this if only to see the 2 unaired episodes. I hope it gets a Blu-ray release.

After a rocky first episode, the show has been incredible. Now if they would only pair it with Fringe instead of that terrible Terminator-lite show...

Re: Dollhouse Season 1 07/28/09
Tim Minear, consulting producer of Dollhouse, clarifies that the season finale of Fox's Dollhouse was always intended to be "Omega," the 12th of the original episodes ordered (not counting the original pilot, which was scrapped and cannibalized for parts). "Epitaph One," meanwhile, was a standalone episode that was never intended to be part of the original 13, but rather was created to fulfill the DVD deal for 13 episodes once the pilot was no longer usable.
Here's how Minear explains it on Whedonesque: "Okay. So maybe I can help clarify this somewhat. Because we scrapped the original pilot—and in fact cannibalized some of its parts for other eps—we really ended up with 12 episodes. But the studio makes DVD and other deals based on the original 13 number. So we created a stand-alone kind of coda episode. Which is the mythical new episode 13. The network had already paid for 13 episodes, and this included the one they agreed to let us scrap for parts. It does not include the one we made to bring the number back up to 13 for the studio side and its obligations. We always knew it would be for the DVD for sure, but we also think Fox should air it because it's awesome."
