My Thoughts:
I was a little disappointed with this movie the first time around. But this time, I really enjoyed it. A lot of really great understated comedic scenes in this one :)
And the appearence of Timothy Dalton wants to make me watch "Looney Toons: Back in Action" again.

Director: David Solomon
Cast: Eliza Dushku (Echo), Harry J. Lennix (Boyd Langton), Fran Kranz (Topher Brink), Tahmoh Penikett (Paul Ballard), Enver Gjokaj (Anthony Ceccoli), Dichen Lachman (Priya Tsetsang), Olivia Williams (Adelle DeWitt), Felicia Day (Mag), Summer Glau (Bennett Halverson), Adair Tishler (Caroline Farrell), Alan Tudyk (Alpha), Zack Ward (Zone), Nate Dushku (Clive Ambrose), Noah Harpster (Matthew Harding), Christian Monzon (Romeo), Brandon Dieter (T), Jim Lindsey (Active), Maurissa Tancharoen (Kilo)

This was the first time that I have watched this series. When it originally aired, I stopped after the first few episodes. Am I glad that I gave this series another chance. My thought was that it really paid off that I gave Firefly a second chance. Now Joss Whedon has proven, that he has yet to disappoint me.
This series really got good after the first few episodes, when the focus switched from the single mission episodes to the arc episodes which focused on the other dollhouse employees.
The final episode is a great conclusion. Even though this series did not have a long life, it got the chance to do a proper ending. Personally I prefer series, which only are one or two seasons long. Then it is easier to rewatch at some point.
