Just caught up with 8-12, as I’ve been pathologically unable to keep up with it as it was airing. Whatever the status of the will it/won’t it air 13th episode, Fox needs to renew this right away. This is really, really good television and it needs to continue. I mean, even bad shows like this rarely exist, but one that does and is good? It’s like winning the lotto for me, this is exactly the sort of science fiction that I love, and you need look no further than Ghost in the Shell and Gunnm (which, admittedly also have lots and lots of cybernetic tech going for them too, but still) to see that. Burn Notice kind of gets at that with Michael slipping in and out of roles, and Pretender did a really good job of scratching this itch, but Dollhouse just jumped things to a whole different level of excellence and it’d be a terrible loss if we didn’t get to see it continue to unfold. Consider my hat tossed in with the rest of Angry Internet Men who demand Fox bring it back for more, lots more.

Right. I should probably get on with watching Firefly now. Of course, I’m sure I’ll be sad that it’s done with after I get through Serenity. Hmm.
