I know this episode is like 3 years old but I just wanted to say I loved this episode! I don’t hear a lot of people talking about Dollhouse (obviously, it’s like over 10 years old and I’m not sure how strong the fandom was at the time), but since watching it a few years ago I always thought it was a pretty interesting and good show, love the themes and psychological places they took the show.
I also love Topher – also this revisit to the series made me realize that he’s the guy on HBO’s Julia, I’d been wondering where I’d seen him before lol.
I love hearing you guys talk about and analyze media and content (using a critical eye but with love!), so these two eps were an unexpected little treat. Most of the shows you guys cover I haven’t watched (I came in from Merlin but that’s pretty much it), but I love hearing you guys and your friendship and perspectives. You guys might influence me to watch some shows I didn’t previously consider, lol.
Anyway I just wanted to give my shoutouts to this episode, thanks for sharing, cheers!

Thank you so much! We’re so glad you enjoyed them – Dollhouse is such a weird interesting show, but we both have mad love for it (especially Fran Kranz, he is absolutely extraordinary. I’ve not seen Julia, but I feel I should check it out if he appears in it!
