Synopsis:



I've been really entertained by this show. This is episode 8 (I think some of you predicted it getting axed in 1-2 episodes) so it's hanging tough despite the shitty ratings.

After last week, this is my new MUST SEE TV! :banana:

Re: Dollhouse -- "Needs" -- 4/3/09
 

Are the rattings really that bad for a Friday Night show?

Re: Dollhouse -- "Needs" -- 4/3/09
 

As far as FOX is concerned, yes they are bad... considering a repeat of House is likely to fare better. :(

Re: Dollhouse -- "Needs" -- 4/3/09
 

Yeah, I'm a little worried about that, especially if Terminator has truly been canceled. They've been treating them like a package, but hopefully the demise of one won't mean the loss of the other.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Needs" -- 4/3/09
 

Dollhouse ratings seem to be a hair better then Terminator...but I think Dollhouse is a cheaper show to produce so it has a chance of getting renewed (coupled with the Whedon-factor and Fox canning increasingly popular Firefly to early they may stick with it next season).

This show has slowly been getting better and better. Looking forward to tonights ep.

The main advantage that Dollhouse has is it being an in-house production at 20th Century FOX. Terminator probably has a larger production budget and a much higher licensing fee since it's from Warner Bros.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Needs" -- 4/3/09
 

Dollhouse Season 1 is coming out on Blu-ray...so maybe that's a good sign?

Re: Dollhouse -- "Needs" -- 4/3/09
 

um, the Bionic Woman redux is also available.......

Re: Dollhouse -- "Needs" -- 4/3/09
 

On Blu-ray? Check again.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Needs" -- 4/3/09
 

Anyone watch it tonight? We saw that Sierra's flashback rapist was clearly notthe handler that November killed.

It was interesting regarding the reveal of November's daughter.

I liked that Victor's closure was getting Sierra.

Oh and Dichen Lachman was looking good throughout the whole episode. :D

Re: Dollhouse -- "Needs" -- 4/3/09
 

I went the other way this episode.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Needs" -- 4/3/09
 

Really? I'm usually weirded out by her in the sense that I find myself constantly waffling about whether she looks good or weird. In this episode I was enjoying her looks 100%.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Needs" -- 4/3/09
 

So the reveal was that November found her daughter's tombstone?

Not really sure what was going on. How did Echo contact Ballard at the end?

Re: Dollhouse -- "Needs" -- 4/3/09
 

I think she called Ballard after finding the file but before she went to see Topher. She said she saw his name in a file and that is the only time that makes sense. Did Ballard's dream at the beginning suggest they had a past connection or was it another look at his savior complex?

Re: Dollhouse -- "Needs" -- 4/3/09
 

I think his savior complex combined with the fact that he's been thinking about Echo delivering her "message" from a couple of weeks ago.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Needs" -- 4/3/09
 

Its odd with here. Some scenes like the one where she is holding the meeting in her office with that tight dress on. I'm like, DAMN. But then they show a close up on her face and uh yeah, not so much.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Needs" -- 4/3/09
 

I thought I was the only one who thought that. Generally though she looks pretty good...I think.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Needs" -- 4/3/09
 

She had a lot of profile shots and her nose does not curve at all. Its like a straight ramp from her eyes down. My wife kept saying that she looks like an alien.

Good episode but for the love of God they need some continuity checking.

Echoe's in a dress and next scene - pants!

She's in heels and the next scene, fighting in slippers!

Of course my fiancee pointing these things out. :)

Re: Dollhouse -- "Needs" -- 4/3/09
 

I liked it. One of the better episodes of the season, the show is starting to get very interesting. Anyone know how many episodes are planned for this season?

Re: Dollhouse -- "Needs" -- 4/3/09
 

This was episode 8 of 13.

Re: Dollhouse -- "Needs" -- 4/3/09
 

I liked the episode and I like the actors and I like the show but I just can't get past the basic premise of the show to really get behind it. It's just so - stupid. As others have pointed out, what's the point of hiring out a whore from the Dollhouse - why not just hire a real prostitute? Or a hostage negotiator? Or a midwife or a hot model commando or anything else for that matter - just get the real thing for a far lower price? Why make a doll out of Echo in the first place when she was so clearly reluctant? I mean it's not like there are thousands of hot chicks in the L.A. whose careers plans haven't worked out and would be willing to do literally anything to put their lives back on track - oh, wait there are! The basic premise just doesn't make any sense at all - not too mention I clearly remeber this show when it was called La Femme Nikita.

I'd swear the Dollhouse had more than 25 actives in this episode. If you count Alpha, that means that they'd run out of Alpha/Bravo names. What next- Alfalfa/Buckwheat?
