Seriously, whenever I hear it, I hear it shouted by either Ken or Ryu. "Google Wave! Google Wave! Google THRUST!"

I have liked all of Dollhouse so far (even the crappy ones, I'm fairly easily pleased) but the latest ep just blew me away and given how Fux has been treating it, it does seem fairly obvious that they never really bought the premise and are looking for a way to bury it quietly without again incurring the wrath of Whedonites everywhere. Quite a clever play on their part. Screw it around in the first season so it starts badly (Joss knows his audience, but it seems Fux don't know theirs). Give it a second so they don't get blasted for 'never giving it a chance'. Commit to the whole run for the same reason, but don't advertise it hardly at all, and when they do, make a total hash of it. Then bump it during sweeps and put REPEATS on in its place. Finally, air back to back eps under the guise of "Event TV" (which given that they didn't bother advertising the start of the new season will confuse a bunch of people) which means you can dispense of the final few eps nice and quickly and to the outsider look like you've done everything you can to keep it on air. I won't go as far as saying they deliberately killed this show (although your douchey Fux exec admits as much). I expect to be ordering a LOLFOX t-shirt in the new year! Maybe you could do one that has the douchey Fox exec on the back laughing gleefully. Nicely done Joel.

Wait does that mean Lauchie Murdock is your Kalibak? Wait doesn't that mean that the evil fox executive will eventually break his programing and run for (Scott) freedom once he meets... (hm, I need to find out who Fox's Big Barda is). Ima gona run this reference as far as it can go. Joss's dad is really Rupert Murdoch?

I've heard some implications from what I consider a semi-reliable source that the idea came from the waves in Firefly, but I haven't dug around enough to find out if it's real or total bull.
