Dollhouse is horrible and this to me smells like a ratings ploy...

Let me guess, her character is going to be a crazy girl/woman. That's the role she gets to play in everything.
Firefly: Crazy ninja assassin girl
The 4400: Crazy mind controlling girl
The Unit: Crazy husband stealing girl
Sarah Connor Chronicles: Crazy robot girl

Real Life: Crazy hot girl

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (as well as Firefly/Serenity) TTSCC was solid it had it run but it's non canon with the movies it sucks how it ended but it will live on in DVD/Blu Ray. ****That said all you bitter fans need to get over it & stop blaiming DOLLHOUSE & either stop bashing it or just give it a fair chance by watching the full first season. If you are someone who did not watch more then the first 3 episodes you are talking out you neck please stop. you are condemming a great show not to mention the reason studios keep producing all these remakes because you don't support anything new.It shouldn't take a show being canceled and placed on DVD for it to get it's highest rankings. I have examples!!!

I feel bvad for anyone who sits thru this horrible show.I tried to like it but it will never be watched again even if summer glau is in it.

Sweet list of guest stars.
Loved Summer Glau on Terminator, but she also was great on The Unit as Crystal, a truly original camp followe type.
I'm also intrigued at what the boys (Denisoff, Hogan, Bamber) will be doing

I love Summer and am happy for this news, but I'm just as pleased that Miracle will be back this season. The way it ended last year it seemed she was off the show. She was my favorite character.

Summer is truly hot.

I have a better idea, how about scrapping Dollhouse, bring back Sarah Connor and the gang, and switch Eliza Dushku over to TSCC as an evil Terminator.
By superfly at 12:04 AM ON 08/28/09
Cancelled. Bring back Terminator!!

Well it was in the air and now it is official... FOX really cannot insult the intelligence of TSCC fans more than it has done with this.
