Spotted in SCI FI Wire:

The small audience that's continued watching Fox's Dollhouse since it got canceled this fall undoubtedly has noticed something: Now that it's canceled, it's gotten good! Not perfect, mind you, but good. All the potential that was there in the beginning is being realized, and we have three episodes left with characters we're starting to care about headed to war with Rossum. AND a final episode that's called "Epitaph Two: Return."

I have to agree with that. The show was too hard to like (and completely lost me) for a long while - behind the character changes and action sequences, it was too much like glorification of slavery for me. Of late, with the drones acquiring minds of their own, it's gotten much, much better. Had season 1 been like this, maybe the show would have lived.

Or, maybe not - maybe there's only enough story there for this ending, which would be ok. We really don't need every show to unfold over 5-7 years, do we?
