I'll have more to say after next Friday, but Dollhouse - I avoided spoilers like crazy, and I had a wacky theory about Alpha that was wrong, but I'm okay with that.  I want to see what they do next week to make a full decision.

Caprica - hmmm.  Maybe.  The amount of religion is a bit much for me.

Free Comic Day today!!!

I still need to catch up on Dollhouse. No idea when I'm going to find the time.

I look forward to checking out Caprica. I have weird mixed feelings about the religious stuff as it appears in BSG that I've been trying to crystallize into a post for awhile now. Because it's sort of part of what my religion is like and sort of really not. It's both intriguing and strange to watch a not-ancient-Greek culture turning to some of my Gods. And then there's the fairly substantial montheism veruss polytheism dynamic between the humans and the Cylons. So I have a feeling, based on your take on it, I'll either find Caprica majorly intriguing or extremely weird.

Ack! I forgot free comic day! It's probably too late. Most places close at 6. Bleh.

You really really do need to catch up on DH. I'm biting my tongue every time we're on the phone!

They're doing a lot of "one god" vs "pantheon" stuff. Some of it's interesting, but there could be a bit less. [All I can say without spoilers.]

It was good - nothing that I think will take off like when Dark Horse introduced Umbrella Academy though.

DOLLHOUSE AAAHHH!!! :D

I enjoyed that episode a lot. I would go on about it more and the reasons why except I don't want to leave spoilery things here in a post that doesn't otherwise have them. But I was happy last night when I managed to see it. I was totally spoiler free so it was excellent, and I also look forward to next week.

Just got given Caprica and haven't watched it yet. (Also was given new Serenity comic at same time. Happy day. :)

Yeah, all these people were like, "I was spoiled months ago." I'm so glad I avoided all those spoilers! The person playing Alpha drips awesome from his pores, is all I'm saying.

I'll be interested to hear what you think of Caprica once you see it.
