Synopsis for Friday's episode:

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

After last week's episode, i can't wait!

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

I agree. This is quickly becoming our choice for first show to watch on Saturdays (no cable).

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

I realize everyone was touting last week's episode as THE one to catch, but I have a feeling this one is going to really kick things into gear.

Four clips from tonight's episode "Echoes":

Were and podcast commentaries available for last week? Id like to give that a whirl.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

Unfortunately the guy who was doing the podcasts, John Pavlich, had his computer die on him. The same computer he used to record the shows. The website is on hold until he finds a replacement.

"You're NSA?" :lol:

It's sad that Topher's only amusing when offscreen. They really need to kill him off.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

Lot of back stories this ep. So basically Caroline/Echo got turned into a Doll for screwing with Rossum. Sierra was a rape victim (and later raped as a Doll). Helo was a traumatised soldier. Boyd digs the piano. And Ms. DeWitt hates lentils.

Fun episode. The next looks to be great as well.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

This was finally an episode that had that full on Joss Whedon feel to it. Last weeks had bits and pieces but this weeks felt like one all the way through. This was my favorite episode so far.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

I was thinking the same thing when I was watching this episode. The gf was watching with me and she was like this show is weird why are you watching this, and by the end she was totally in to it.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

My kid kept crying and I missed half the dialog in the first 15 minutes. I'm going to have to watch it again.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

Took a break from last few episodes and gave this one a chance. Still pretty weird and all over the place, but it was ok, just something to watch.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

Wasn't the busty blonde in Caroline's flashback the same actress who played Justine on "Angel"? I think she was also on "The L Word".

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

I really liked this episode, but can someone explain to me how Topher and Ms. DeWitt got infected with the drug? They weren't anywhere near the lab. Sad to see the neighbor girl leave, but I suppose she will be back at some point.

Next week's episode does look very good!

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

I'm guessing we'll still see her at the Dollhouse. Just not with the FBI guy. or ex-FBI guy.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

Topher high-fived November after injecting her and then touched Adelle's arm.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

Thank you! Now I get the connection.

--John

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

I want that blinking toy that Topher was playing with.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

The actress you're referring to, Laurel Holloman did indeed play Justine on ANGEL and star on The L Word, but that's not her in this episode.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

Such a great episode! Reminded me of a flick called "The Signal" in where a signal transmits through all forms of communication and it starts driving people insane the more they expose themselves to it. A very insane and hallucinogenic movie. I recommend it to anyone tickled by the ideas brought up in this episode.

Anyway, next weeks seems like it will be intense. Didn't think everything would come to a head at the Dollhouse so soon.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

It was a good episode, but I couldn't help thinking Joss has already done episodes like this multiple times on both Buffy AND Angel.

I still can't tell if I like this show.

I suspect next week will be the deciding episode (for those who saw the preview you know what I mean).

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

This was a pretty good episode, but it was a bit hectic with just about everyone either tripping or having debilitating flashbacks.

After this episode I'm moving Olivia Williams to the number 2 hottie ranking behind Millie and ahead of Dushku. Seeing her let her hair down was great.

Also, now that it's been revealed that Echo was a moonbat PETA nut I'm kind of rooting for the Dollhouse.

Oh, and no way the boyfriend is dead.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

fixed

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

I'm going to be angry if they get rid of hot neighbor

The show needs more Helo. He was the reason I like last week so much.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

My wife asked why they had a fat doll. :rolleyes:

I said she's not fat, she's just not scrawny like the others.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

Wow, that's a little harsh.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

You had the perfect comeback. Too true. :thumbsup:


:)

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

Funny because women are always the hardest on other women's bodies. My mom lost a bunch of weight and is skinny now, you should hear her talk about fat people on planes.

I tend to like women with a little meat on their bones, so I like the "fat doll" the best. T and A indeed!

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

I just posted ratings for this episode. You can where it ranks in the ratings sticky.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

Good episode. But I liked the one before it a lot better. Echo's handler has a hell of a punch! I you don't want to mess with him. Anyone want to see him and that FBI guy fight?

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

Eliza looked great in that outfit. When they were breaking into the building I couldn't believe the guy volunteered to go up the ladder first.

They went out of their way to clear up the head of security hitting Echo with the gun a few episodes ago. But it still raises the question "Why not just shoot her with the damn gun?"

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

to make it look like she simply didn't get out in time

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

Wasn't she just flashing back to when she was raped at the dollhouse?

That wasn't Helo, it was Victor.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

Wait, who is Helo?

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

I bet the boyfriend is the Doll that went nuts and escaped.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

I'm glad I'm not the only one who was thinking that, lol!

Agt. Ballard aka Helo from BSG.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Echoes" -- 3/27/09
 

That's what I thought. The back of the dude's head was clearly not the handler, but I think they probably just didn't want to pay him for another episode so they used a different 'back of the head' and that's what's causing the confusion - because she is wearing the same clothes and mentions that 'she doesn't like this game', which was in reference to what the handler said.
