Was she scarred in Dollhouse? And timid?

No, that was Summer "River from Firefly" Glau.

Acker was scarred, but she was a doctor.

For much of it. Then not so much. I thought she was great in DH.

Oh wait, maybe she was.

Craster has just watched it, he can tell us.

Grim... · **Posted:** Sun Sep 25, 2016 19:52

Huh. Look at that.

River wasn't scarred or timid. She had an arm that didn't work though.

I loved DH, it's where Topher's name comes from. I'd happily watch it through again, er, when we've got a telly.

Unexploded Politician is pretty good. Kiefer is doing a good job at being less Jack Bauer than usual.

Huh. It's not a series binge dump. What is this, the 20th century?

Inorite?
Ep 2 was pretty good. Not sure where they're going with this but liking it so far

Aftermath was ok, but nothing special.

"This is us" was lovely. A really charming little show.

ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view!

And the whole moralistic side is really interesting. At what point does it become wrong to treat a computer character badly?

That, as an adult, I can't abide One Direction, should go without saying.

But will give it a go.

Watched 1-3 this evening. Really enjoyed it, but the best bits are when he goes a bit Bauer.

But worried that it is 22 episodes long, which means it will follow the usual 24-sequel plot arcs (probably).

What I don't understand is why did they make robot horses for robots to ride? They have to programming two robots now instead if just making a robot ride a horse.

MrChris · **Joined:** 1st Apr, 2008 **Posts:** 30498

Horses are evil unpredictable bastards that would kill you soon as look at you, that's why

MrChris · **Joined:** 1st Apr, 2008 **Posts:** 30498

Seriously, fuck horses.

Get shot in shootouts, don't they? Don't want to start killing proper horses.
