1) Belonging
I cried through pretty much this entire episode for different reasons. It was just such a rollercoaster of emotions. everybody broke my heart. Dichen Lachman finally got a chance to shine and she was amazing. Enver Gjokaj childlike innocence assuming Sierra’s going to come back and sits down and waits for her was the sweetest saddest thing. Echo and Boyd’s storyline was great and the scratches in Echo’s pod were most intriguing. Dewitt we see start to break down and she was really fantastic in that scene where she asks Nolan about his tea and just slips in snide remarks in a very polite voice. Topher blew me away. Dollhouse is such a fantastic show because you get to see such a range from the actors and as seen here they don’t even have to be dolls. Topher’s moral dilemma and his conversation at the end was heartbreaking particularly when we see he has to remember it and then he wipes Sierra and then she looks at him, so blissful and happy and just asks if she fell asleep. By the time the last shot of Victor and Sierra sleeping in a pod rolled around I knew this was the best episode of Dollhouse and one of the greatest things I have ever seen on TV

2) The Attic
I loved the tone of this episode, so very dark and creepy. I loved all the imagery and Dominic reappearing was really cool. This was just one of those episodes that kind of blows your mind so when you walk away from it your only thoughts are OH MY GOD AWESOME! This episode also introduced me to one of my now favourite singers, Anna Ternheim who sung that song at the end so I am very thankful for that.

3) Epitaph 1
My god was this episode dense, It took me three watches to actually comprehend wtf but once I got it, it just blew me away. One of my favourite things about dollhouse is how it uses its technology and shows all the risks and problems from advances like this ins science and i mean look where it got them. Topher makes me cry so hard every time I watch this episode it’s just so sad.

4) Needs
What can I say? I just loved this episode. I thought it was beautifully shot and brilliantly acted. I loved every storyline. I loved the image at the end where Echo leads them all out before collapsing, I cried so much both when we find out Madeline’s daughter is dead and just the whole Victor and Sierra thing when they were talking and Sierra says she remembers him waiting for her. I am such a shipper but I don’t even care. I love Victor and Sierra. Everybody in this episode was very strong performances and I also really liked how you got to see the Dollhouse from a very unique perspective of people who have no idea what it is and learn about it as they go along so they don’t really have bias. It was just a great episode.

5) Man on the Street
This episode showed us why Joss is boss. It was exciting, intense, sad and just all around brilliant. I loved the little interview segment and every storyline in this episode really interested me. I thought the acting was great but the writer was especially spectacular.

6) A Spy in the House of Love
I really enjoyed this episode. They told so much story within a fairly small amount of time but the viewer never got lost and it never felt overcrowded. I really loved the different story lines and how they all overlapped.

7) Epitaph 2- The Return
This was an exceptionally strong series finale. Loose ends were tied up and of course, in classic Joss Style, characters died but it was still unpredictable. I expected either Victor or Sierra and Alpha to die but shockingly, Paul and Topher died and even more shockingly, Victor and Sierra got a happy ending! I never saw that coming! I cried so much at this episode. I am so sad this series is over.

8) Belle Chose
While this was maybe more of a filler episode, it was wildly entertaining. Eliza Dushku and Enver Gjokaj both did really well but Enver Gjokaj especially as both Terry Karens and later on, Kiki just completely stole the show. I loved Victor as Kiki it was so much win.

9) The Left Hand
This episode was just more interesting than its first part due to the inclusion of Summer Glau and Victopher. They just made this episode.

10) A Love Supreme
Once again, Alan Tudyk is boss. I love the fact that he is a dapper, funny, super powered, multiple personalities, flamboyant serial killer. wtf Wash? I loved Alpha’s plot and actions throughout the episode. I liked Victor and Sierra too in their respective parts; Victor as a creepy psychologist and Sierra as a old film star. This episode was funny, action-packed and shocking and overall very strong. I loved the multiple personality jokes Alpha made as well, those were quite amusing.

11) Meet Jane Doe
I loved seeing Echo harnessing her skills and kicking ass. I thought the Dollhouse’s transformation and Dewitt’s subservience and her desperation to get back in charge was great. This was the perfect amount of showing Echo harnessing her abilities. Any more and it would get boring but any less any less it would feel confusing and rushed. The pacing in this episode was great and also yay! a little bit of Victor and Sierra. My shipper heart sings!

12) The Target
This was a great second episode. It gave us backstory, action and the moment at the end where Echo smacks her arm showed that Echo was evolving which was cool. I loved Boyd in this episode and the flashbacks were great.

13) The Hollow Man
Yes, so the thing about Boyd being evil didn’t make total sense because he’s Boyd and it felt a little bit rushed but this was a great action packed episode with good, strong performances from all the characters plus the return of Victopher!

14) Getting Closer
OMG Bennett! That was so shocking! This was a pretty good episode and it planted the seeds for the season finale without totally feeling like a setup episode. I loved the return of Doctor Saunders and Mellie as well.
