Since I’m currently on vacation, I only caught Felicia Day’s tweet about her upcoming Dollhouse episode, and the implied cancellation of the series, tangentially. I found myself oddly upset, and had to rush to confirm the truth. Synopsis: it’s not canceled…yet.
I guess that means (and contrary to previous indications) that I like the show. In my post-BSG doldrums, I need something to latch on to, and it might as well be this. The upside is there, if it chooses to assert its presence.
I will admit, I do get a certain guilty pleasure out of pretending that Harry Lennix is actually Barack Obama, kicking ass in primetime to protect Echo.
We will say nothing of the guilty pleasure that is Dichen Lachman.

I understand that to survive past 4 or 5 episodes, new shows on Fox need to be front-loaded with sex and violence, but in its current form, Dollhouse is not a particularly enjoyable show.
Needless to say, I think it’s awesome. I can’t believe how many times I caught myself thinking “oh, i can’t wait until they show *that*” while watching it.

OK, so I’m a fanboy, but go check out Joss’ latest project, Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog, anyway. Episodes I and II are online already, with the final episode scheduled for Saturday.
Neil Patrick Harris steals the show so far, but Nathan Fillion never fails to entertain, going from comically over-archetypal superhero to penis…erm, dick at the drop of a hat. Does Nathan remind anyone else of a young Elvis, or is it just me and my man-crush?
It took me a while to warm to the new Battlestar Galactica, but I’m fully onboard now. It certainly doesn’t hurt that the last few episodes have played like a who’swho ofsci-fi.

While at brunch on Sunday — Mmmm…Stoneface Dolly’s — Kev was talking about the Chronic(what)les of Narnia skit from SNL. What he failed to mention is that it has doper beats and tighter lyrics than most legit rap songs I’ve heard recently. Also, it’s hilarious, although perhaps not as funny as me trying to say “doper beats” with a straight face.
