There’s a lot of people online saying they are looking forward to the next episode of Dollhouse is see Joss’s original vision on the series, as it’s the original pilot. It’s not. The original pilot episode, “Echo”, has ended up in the trash can. (DVD extra please?). I know Joss said it was going to be episode 2, but the plan changed since then.
There is a LOT of confusion about this amongst folk, so to avoid let down on the day, that’s where things stand.
Here’s what to expect on Friday: a good episode written by Steve Deknight (you might recognise him from Buffy The Vampire Slayer). The introduction of Miracle Laurie’s reoccurring character, a major new Whedonverse actress. The big bad of the series. And, yes, some funny.

I really hope the original pilot is on the DVD! It’d be interesting to see how different it was.
Especially as we all know how amazing Firefly is when watched in Jos’ order. Seems the same would probably be true for Dollhouse.
So that means no Echo, Victor and Sierra being “groupie”? No Eliza speaking spanish? I loved “Ghost”, and I’ve been waiting for Dollhouse since they first announced it in October 2007, but I felt like the characters weren’t really introduced in the aired pilot. Specially Adelle and Victor, they were sort of just there. But I can’t wait to see the next episode, I can’t think of anything more full of promise than Joss and Eliza working together again.
