The latest episode of Dollhouse is, without a doubt, the most mind-blowing of the show to date. Whether Season 2 was always slated for such a spectacular ending or if some tweaking was done after it was obvious that the show wouldn’t be coming back for a third season is unclear but, regardless, the end result is phenomenal.

It just so happens that there are quite a few Browncoats in media and entertainment, and like any good fans of a cult hit, they find ways to sneak references to Firefly and Serenity into their own creations. There have been several of these references within the past month or so, so I thought it would be fun to round them up.

“Belonging” is, quite simply, the best episode in the season-and-a-half run of the show. Watching it, I felt like this is what the show should be. It’s just too bad that it has taken them this long to get here. It may be too late.

The #3 character in our countdown of the 100 Greatest Fictional Characters of All Time is none other than the original Slayer of our generation.

Paige examines the newest episode’s exploration of gender issues and power as the Dollhouse accidentally sets a serial killer loose in Los Angeles.

Although I enjoyed “Instinct,” it wasn’t quite what I expected from the previews that followed the season opener and I must admit that I was a bit disappointed. The episode felt a bit schizophrenic, probably the result of the episode airing as the second of the reason, rather than the third.

The concern that some fans displayed over the possibility of the show becoming nothing more than a series of formulaic, predictable stories about the various engagements that Echo is involved with was unwarranted; based on “Vows,” we can rest easy knowing that Joss Whedon inevitably will deliver once again a superior television series.

Several movie posters for Joss Whedon’s upcoming film, The Cabin in the Woods, began circulating the Web a month or two ago. I’m not quite sure how I missed them, but I wanted to make sure that none of our readers do, either.

Are women really so shallow that they blindly fall in love with any story about a girl who falls in love with a vampire, or does the success of series like Buffy and Twilight, and even Charlaine Harris’ The Southern Vampire Mysteries, require something more to truly touch the hearts of female audiences?

Paige takes a look at the first episode of Nathan Fillion’s new ABC series Castle and ponders whether his mystery writer character just might be too clever for TV.
