Woe Upon Your Cylon Heart!

Adelle DeWitt is so fierce, it's ridiculous. She is the greatest.

But they're not! They're all different! I keep expecting to see many Echos, and many Sierras and Victors, but nope! Just the one.

Oh man, Adelle is amazing. Her arc in season 2 is just probably my favorite arc on a Joss show ever. (It is season 2, right? I watched the show so fast I don't know if I can separate the two seasons in my head.)

re: Madeline and Melanie! HAHAHA! Look at your parents, they started a trend!

From:

I'm on season two, and Adelle is still being as fierce as ever. I'll let you know if she somehow manages to get more fabulous. (I don't doubt her ability to achieve this, I just can't conceive of her being more amazing.)

It's weird! In the second Legally Blonde movie, one of the judges was named Madeline Melanie [last name] and it was like whoaaaa my mind is blown, and here November was called Mellie by Helo and then her real name was Madeline... the mind reels.

This was basically me when I was watching Dollhouse. Dewitt ensnared me enough to keep watching throughout the whole series, but I usually watched while doing something else mindless, like internet shopping or something, so that I wouldn't get too annoyed at how little Dewitt there was. I really did like the last 4 or so episodes though; it was only then that I was like, "Damn, this could have been much more awesome than it was."

But yeah, I'm pretty sure the show would have been epically awesome if it has been the Adelle Dewitt show rather than the Echo show.

From:

I was trying to explain to my friend why I was watching it even though I disliked most of it, and seriously, Adelle DeWitt is the main reason. Sure, I like seeing Tahmoh Penikett being morally outraged, but not enough to merit its own show. (What I really want is the Dominic & DeWitt hour.)

From:

What I really want is the Dominic & DeWitt hour.

THIS IS WHAT WE ALL WANT.

Although I am so fiercely, insanely attached to this show at this point that I love pretty much everything about it. Like, 98% of what it chooses to be. I even reconciled myself to Paul/Echo and now sometimes have feelings of FONDNESS for them. It's straight up whack yo.

From:

I finally got to an episode I hadn't seen yet as the last one on the second disc, and Echo got an illegal immigrant in trouble and then rescued her? And people are bossing Adelle DeWitt around? I am so sad. ADELLE DEWITT SHOULD HAVE TO ANSWER TO NO ONE BUT GOD ALMIGHTY.

From:

That is probably my least favourite episode of season two, but it still has some good stuff! AND, OKAY, HARDING MAKING ADELLE POUR THE TEA FOR HIS FELLOW CHAUVINISTIC DOUCHEBAGS WHILE HE STEALS HER DESK?!?!?!!? PAIN AND RAGE, IN MY HEART. That whole "She's quite a beauty herself" / "In her day" exchange -- the bafflement! The fury! HIDEOUS FOOLS.

In my opinion, 2x08 through 2x11 are pretty much PERFECT TELEVISION, you are on the verge of a lot of goodness.

From:

OMG RIGHT? I'm a bit unclear as to why these bitches feel they can frak with Adelle DeWitt and live to tell the tale, but whatever the hell happened, it isn't to be borne. And OMG, when that old dude said "in her day" I wanted to throw something at my TV. WHAT IS THAT EVEN SUPPOSED TO MEAN?

From:

IT MEANS BLASPHEMY!!!!! PLAIN & SIMPLE.

From:

WORD. I couldn't even believe what I was hearing. Was he blind?

From:

I could NOT bring myself to watch that episode before. I skipped several parts, cringing and flinching with what they were doing to Adelle. It was insane. I wanted to throttle Harding through my computer. And that part where they were smoking in her office. I WAS SO FRAKKING ENRAGED.

And then imagine if Fox actually said, "we'll give you five seasons-- that's a promise." Then it would have been a half-season arc. I WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN ABLE TO WATCH DOLLHOUSE.

Really, that episode. My feelings for it is comparable to Belonging (Priya's ep).

From:

I was miserable! WHO DID THOSE MEN THINK THEY WERE, ORDERING ADELLE DEWITT AROUND? (Know who wouldn't have stood for it? Dom. Shhh. Go with it.) Also, seriously, I honestly don't know what happened because I watched those episodes ages ago, why were those bitches running Adelle DeWitt like she could be run. DON'T THEY KNOW WHO SHE IS?

From:

(Know who wouldn't have stood for it? Dom. Shhh. Go with it.)

I'd go with everything when it comes to Dom. But frankly, if Dom was there, the whole Harding arc wouldn't have happened.

...and I almost said a spoiler.

ADELLE DEWITT IS QUEEN OF THE WORLD. But it's also a painful way of telling the audience that Echo was right about Adelle during 1x08-- that she wasn't as important as she thinks she is.

But then, you really don't want to mess around Adelle DeWitt. Especially if she has Dominic by her side.

From:

FUCK ECHO AND HER MEANNESS I DON'T CARE WHAT SHE SAYS YOU KNOW WHY ADELLE IS IMPORTANT? BECAUSE SHE WILL FUCK YOUR SHIT UP AND LOOK SPECTACULAR DOING IT. AND ALSO? SHE WILL DO IT WITHOUT RAISING HER MELODIOUS, BRITISH-ACCENTED VOICE. SO YOU WILL SIT DOWN, ECHO. YOU WILL SIT DOWN AND SHUT YOUR MOUTH. I DON'T CARE IF HELO WILL SPAR WITH YOU SHIRTLESS.

ETA: Sorry for the caps! I got excited.

Don't worry. I've gotten used to it, mainly because there was this one time, I had an eljay convo with someone entirely in all caps. We were talking about Dewitt/Dominic. haha.

I was actually hoping Helo would have sexy chemistry with Dewitt, but alas, even though Tahmoh and Olivia are sexy individuals, they do not have sizzling tension. (Olivia and Reed, on the other hand...)

other options, River is torturing Faith
Cameron is torturing Faith
Cameron is torturing Echo
Add Tru and repeat
Anyway, much as I tend to love Jossverse, that show was disturbing on so many levels
that squick armor or industrial sized bottles of bleach are needed to get through it

Cylons=/=Dolls, gotta be the creep factor and the blind faith of the ignorant

From:

LOL, I don't have enough knowledge of Summer Glau's other roles to see her as anything other than River. I suppose it could been seen as River torturing Faith, though.

THIS SHOW IS SO SQUICKY. Like, I'm trying to like, not think too much about it so that I can stomach it, but it's hard.

I was watching for Echo (YES, REALLY) and Mellie and Sierra/Victor and...that was it. But it was just too squicky, I couldn't watch to the end.

From:

I started watching because

dollsome made me fall in love with Adelle Dewitt and Dominic, and I was so bummed that it wasn't the D&D hour, but instead The Eliza Dushku hour. :(

I so disliked Mellie, and I felt bad for disliking Mellie, and I was really indifferent towards Echo. Sierra/Victor are darling, though.

From:

This show needed more Dominic AND DeWitt/Dominic sexy times.

But I love this show to bits, even the squicky parts. <3

From:

Seriously, though, I was sold on the idea of watching this show solely because the idea of Dom/DeWitt and then... they were a significantly smaller portion than I anticipated. IT WAS DEPRESSING. I want all them all the time.

From:

You, me and everybody else at

EP 10 AND 11 ARE AWESOME.

From:

I am excited to hear this! I want to know why they go to Arizona. And why Adelle DeWitt loathes Arizona.

EVERYONE ON THAT SHOW IS SO HORRIBLE, I CAN'T EVEN. Adelle is also horrible but at least she is redeemably FIERCE while being so.

Also, LOL Cylons. The biggest failing of Dollhouse is that Tricia Helfer did not star in it.
