And here are some videos to go along with the earlier photo post for tonight’s (May Dollhouse finale “Omega.”
I’m writing in the wee hours of the morning, and Fox has only uploaded one sneak peek, which is labeled 1 of 3. I’ll update this post with the remaining two preview videos later, but you can also check the network’s YouTube channel directly.
Now on to the clips, including a new promo, after the jump. I call the first sneak peek Post Alpha Stress Disorder, otherwise known as PASD. ;D

The first-season finale for Joss Whedon’s rookie sci-fi series Dollhouse is upon us at last. Will the episode, “Omega,” also be the series finale? Nobody but Fox knows at the moment, and the network isn’t talking.
During the latest adventures in mind-wiping tonight (May at 9:01pm ET, Firefly and Serenity star Alan Tudyk returns to reprise his role as infamous, slash-happy Alpha. To the show’s credit, it did a pretty good job of concealing his true identity from viewers at the beginning of last week’s “Briar Rose.” Agoraphobia? Yeah, right!

There’s just one more installment left in the first season of Fox’s Dollhouse after tonight’s (May 1) fresh episode “Briar Rose” premieres. The last hour is the May 8th season finale “Omega,” which could double as the show’s series finale if a renewal doesn’t happen.
First things first, however. This week’s majorly fantastic guest star is none other than Firefly alum Alan Tudyk. The actor plays integral character Stephen Kepler, an agoraphobic (abnormal fear of crowds, open areas, and/or public space) designer who put his magic touch on the Dollhouse.
As Paul Ballard’s investigation leads him to Kepler, the …read more

Dollhouse goodies are in store tonight. Check out some pictures of Echo during her adventures solving her own murder while imprinted with the memories and personality of Adelle DeWitt’s murdered friend in the earlier photo post, and continue after the jump for not one, not two, not three, but four sneak peeks at “Haunted.”
Topher and Boyd discuss in the first, Echo takes her temporary identity to lunch with Adelle in the second, the ladies hang out some more in the third, and Topher and Sierra play games in the fourth.
Hmmm — I was hoping for a little butt-kicking. …read more

Heads-up, Eliza Dushku and Joss Whedon fans!
Fox’s Dollhouse returns tonight after a week off with a new episode called “Haunted.” The drama also has a different lead-in now, outgoing Prison Break, which, unfortunately, probably won’t do it any favors in the ratings department, considering the jailbird series performed even worse than The Sarah Connor Chronicles did before it in the 8pm time slot.
The description for “Haunted” (love that title — hooks me every time) is short and sweet: Echo is forced to solve her own murder when Adelle gets her wrapped up in some nonsense involving a murdered wealthy …read more

I like the title of the April 10 episode of Dollhouse — “Spy in the House of Love” — which features, of all things, a Dexter reunion.
That would be between recurring Dollhouse actress Liza Lapira (NCIS, Huff), who plays Ivy now and was Yuki Amado on the Showtime series, and guest star Valerie Cruz (Hidden Palms, Nip/Tuck), whom fans know as Dexter’s Sylvia Prado, but whom I love for her starring gig as Lieutenant Connie Murphy on the Sci Fi Channel’s aborted wizard drama The Dresden Files. Miss that one.
During “Spy in the House of Love,” the Dollhouse residents …read more

The April 3 episode of Fox’s Dollhouse is called “Needs.” And, with a teaser that states “Echo leads the Actives in an escape from the Dollhouse while Ballard deals with shocking information,” I’m definitely excited about what’s in store.
The plot revolves around Echo, Sierra, and Victor waking up one day to suddenly find that their personalities and memories are what they used to be before all of the dangerous mind-wiping and whatnot. Ever determined, Echo then takes it upon herself to get her “friends” and all of the other Actives the heck out of there.
Can you blame her? …read more

It’s back to school for Echo on the March 27 episode of Dollhouse called “Echoes.” I wonder if the installment is a reworking of the original pilot, which was titled simply “Echo.”
When the Active is stationed at a college after a lethal viral outbreak, Echo begins to piece together parts of her past. And, apparently, Reed Diamond’s uptight Laurence Dominic will be sent undercover — or at least out in the field — with other Actives so he can get a little “engagement” action, too.
Preview photos follow the jump. The first two in the left column show …read more

Tomorrow night’s brand-new episode of Dollhouse is called “Gray Hour,” and generous Fox has just uploaded five sneak peeks to YouTube so fans can sample the action coming up.
Echo’s latest covert assignment finds her impersonating an ace safe cracker in order to help bust a ring of art thieves. As usual, she unintentionally gets into hot water in the process, which requires Sierra to arrive on the scene for a little clean-up work.
Meanwhile, FBI Agent Ballard continues to pressure Lubov — who we now know is actually a doll — for assistance finding the Dollhouse, and Topher learns some …read more

“Man on the Street,” the March 20 episode of Dollhouse, is a big one for the series because it marks the first time that Echo and FBI Agent Paul Ballard meet each other in the flesh.
I imagine equally exciting for some comedy fans is the addition of guest star Patton Oswalt, who has previously contributed his talent to TV series like The King of Queens and feature films like Ratatouille. Battlestar Galactica actor Mark Sheppard also continues his quest to appear on every single show currently on television by reprising his role as Tanaka.
Get the spoilers after the jump.
