In reply to: DZR 's message, "I doubt they're showing eps in the UK *before* they air in the US" on 11:31:19 02/13/09 Fri

but your probably right although I could have sworn all the advertising on cable was for the new series, ah well I'll investigate tonight and make sure

The reviews for Dollhouse seem to have been mixed, I can't remember the link now but one reviewer didn't seem all that happy with the first three eps, we'll see, knowing Joss it will all kick in eventually and we'll be as enthralled as ever, I love long arcs which is why I enjoyed series 4 Angel so much, couldn't wait till the next episode.

Season 2 of T:TSCC premiered in the US in September 2008. Then it went on mid-season break in December and is coming back tonight with episode 14 of season 2.

According to Wikipedia season 2 started in the UK in October 2008, then also went on a break over Christmas and returned last week. Which I reckon would still put the UK 2 or 3 episodes behind the US.

There is no way a US network show would air in the UK *before* it did in the US, because everyone would just BitTorrent it and the advertisers would go crazy.

I have to say I've enjoyed it so far, a weak start I thought but has really improved a lot and is now a must see prog, I thought Lena Headey was the weak link at first but she has come on in leaps and bounds and I'm now completely caught up in her character, I really hope it doesn't get cancelled, I love it, Summer Glau is awesome.

The writing is a little bit hit or miss, but Summer knocks it out of the park every single episode. Her performance is so subtle and nuanced that I am completely entranced by her. Obviously it helps that I think she is incredibly unbelievably hot too.

she should win awards for her performance, one minute I'm rooting for her and the next I'm afraid of her, the change in her persona is so subtle and scary

my son is completely totally and absolutely obsessed with her
