    not really an answer but i think dollhouse’s second season hits worse than if it had just been cancelled outright. i’m glad joss got the chance to give it an ending, but CHRIST that timeskip fucking sucks.

      Funny enough, I just finished watching this series a couple of weeks ago. It felt like they thought they were getting canceled after the first season, then somehow got renewed and had to think of a way to further the story at the last minute. No idea if that’s true, but that’s how it felt.

      I like the more episodic story of the week feel the first season had. Hated the way they Neo-ized Echo in the second season. But I actually liked the season 2 finale, despite the time jump. Thought they wrapped things up in a pretty satisfying way.

        you’re actually pretty close!

        iirc joss had the plot planned out for like six or seven seasons. sometime either towards the end or immediately after season one he was told he was greenlit for one more season and that’s it, so he decided to just skip to the end of his intended story.
