Topher: Look at Echo, not a care in the world. She's living the dream.

We should update the image banner too. A nice shot of Tahmoh can't hurt.

worldwidestudios | May 22, 22:35 CET

Progressive_Stupidity | May 22, 22:39 CET

worldwidestudios If we're talking banner changes, I think its fair to say Felicia might deserve a shot before Tahmoh. To date, I think she's got as many projects with The Purple One as anyone (except our boy Nate of course).

As far as the banner goes, theres two of Fray, two of Smile Time angel etc.

Why not get rid of the doubles and put in some Dollhouse characters.

"What you don't know won't hurt you", "I can do anything" and "Just let me sleep for a little while". Yes technically it's cheating but I do love the song.

bubblecat | May 22, 22:53 CET

This was a great idea, Simon. Exactly what I needed to feel good being a fan. Thank you!

I can't believe how many awesome lines there were in this season. I heard tons when re-watching on Hulu, and that was only for 6-11! Need to watch the ones from iTunes to gather more. :D

korkster | May 22, 22:53 CET

What - no "man reaction" quotes? I know they are there, I just don't remember exact verbiage. I like the "pimps and killers" one myself.

and the "starches" line.

Why did you make me hate you? Not sure on the exact wording, but that was the strongest scene so far.

xMadxScientistx | May 22, 23:51 CET

You guys said a lot of the best ones already. Reading this thread makes me remember both how great this show is, and how ridiculous the "but it isn't funny!" worrying was.

"Oh my God! You guys are gonna get married and have a bunch of scowly babies!"

"What a Rick."

"That was so... neighborly."

"I live to serve lunch."

"Recycled urine? Kidding... it's not fully recycled yet. I also have POM."

I'm surprised no one has said:
"Do you want a treatment"
because I plan to use that on people who are needing a time-out (but they won't know what I mean).

My favorite so far is: "Officially I deplore violence, but that was totally worth the loss of karma points!"

But I also really like: "Why is there a a tall morally judgemental man in my imprint room ... besides Boyd?"

''Maybe there'll be cake.''

:D

MovieMark | May 23, 02:41 CET

So many favorites already listed, and when I wondered why no one had mentioned others, I scrolled down and there they were. Except for these ones.

"I am old friend from Navy... uh... friend from Old Navy."

And also the one with Adelle's dead friend talking about how in Echo's body she's "pointing straight up to the ceiling," or some such. Does anyone remember the actual words? Hmm.

XanMan | May 23, 02:48 CET

"I thought you said you were good with people?" "I misspoke. I'm good at people."

"A broadhead arrow does more damage coming out." "I'll remember that next time I'm being bow-hunted."

"Margaret was nothing like mother! ... Your mother."

"I looked really cute in that shirt, too. Stupid bitch."

"I remember! It still smells like burnt hair in here."

"You're sitting in some messed up dentist's chair, letting a guy who talks to himself attach wires to your head -- which, incidentally, is MY head!"

robfearon | May 23, 03:17 CET

"I�m not fooling. He�s not kidding. We�re not bluffing! I�m bluffing. But the rest of us. We mean business." -Alpha

"Sure, now your experts. Four hours ago you were discussing your love for applesauce." -Dominic

Thuddles | May 23, 03:26 CET

Surprised this hasn't been mentioned yet:

"I may not know who I am, but at least I know who I'm not... I'm not your girlfriend."

Ronald_SF | May 23, 03:32 CET

Pretty much anything that comes out of Alan Tudyk's mouth

do not try to open a locked pod, all hell will break loose my tall man.

down.... that hall-way. Wait. oh no that's right.

aaaand

sorry agent ballard, you don't get the girl.

dulce_serenidad | May 23, 03:51 CET

That last one is Boyd, however, not Alpha. ;)

The One True b!X | May 23, 03:58 CET

"People were fighting on me!"

kmb99 | May 23, 04:08 CET

Definitely "There are three flowers in a vase".

ThorpeWithoutShrimp | May 23, 04:11 CET

Ignore this post. Added: "I may not know who I am, but I at least know who I'm not!" to the pot, but just realized it was already posted and I'm too tired to figure out how to delete the post. My appologies.

Elphaba | May 23, 04:21 CET

"You poisoned me and tried to shoot me with arrows!" Echo/Janey, "The Target"

"I have a message for you from inside the Dollhouse". Mellie, "Needs"

Ronald_SF, really you rock! how could I not remember that one? It was stuck in my head for days.

That's ok, Elphaba. There are many repeated quotes actually. And I think there's no way to delete it, only the mods can delete it.

"Wow... Say, you got a bathroom?" Echo/Crystal, "Omega"

danielgm | May 23, 04:58 CET

"I heart my porn, but this is cool!"

zohrael | May 23, 05:35 CET

Reading these reminds me how great this show really is. Can't wait to rewatch the entire season!

Oh and "There are three flowers in a vase. The third flower is green." totally has to be in there. Also, Echo on the banner would be shiny.

I understand Hell now.

filmfan28 | May 23, 06:48 CET

Would you like a treatment?

Do you trust me?

If I could make a woman, I'd make you.

Repeat votes for:

"I�m not fooling. He�s not kidding. We�re not bluffing! I�m bluffing. But the rest of us. We mean business."
"Carrots! Medicinal Carrots!"
"Porn!"
"I like pancakes"
"We're pimps and killers, but in a philanthropic way"
"They're a little bit bison."
"I am... very British"
"Do you trust me?"

"I wanna do everything. Is that so much to ask?" - Caroline

Thursnext | May 23, 10:01 CET

"I'm not broken." - Echo

Thursnext | May 23, 10:01 CET

I'm going to reiterate:

My whole life isn't real.

Vortigun | May 23, 10:51 CET

Fully supporting any of the Topher/Adelle dialogue from Echoes, particularly:

"I find lentils completely incomprehensible."

"Ooh, I could eat that word. Or a crisp."

"You haven't seen my drawer of inappropriate starches?"

skittledog | May 23, 10:55 CET

I love :

Topher: There is nothing good or bad, but thinking makes it so.

(I don't know why know, it just sounds cool)

and:

Ivy: Shouldn't we help?

Topher: Yeah. I helped when I imprinted her with kung fu skills. Be my guest.

Gota luv that Buffy | May 23, 11:04 CET

Topher:'Man reaction'

Topher:'There is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so.'

Topher:'Doctor Saunders! How nice of you to annoy me.'

Victor (as Lubov)'Yeah, people are mostly crap.'

Boyd:'They're not bison, Topher' Topher:'They're a little bit bison'

Saunders: 'One good sneeze could bring on a seizure.'
Topher: 'Or even worse, a sneezure.'

Topher: 'Brown...mined from the earth by the hard scrabble brown miners of north Brownderton!'

DeWitt: 'I find lentils completely incomprehensible. '

Shep | May 23, 12:51 CET

Here's new one:

She's not a girl, she's not even a person... just an empty hat, until you stuff a rabbit in it. - Boyd

LaneMeyer | May 23, 12:57 CET

Looking, looking, can't find it yet, but it's something like

"Is Foxtrot speaking Mandarin instead of Cantonese again? I thought we fixed that."

ETA:
You snort horse once, don't like it, go back to your organic tea and have a nice life; I do it once, Whew! I'm doin' two bags a day for twenty years!

So bein' a doll, you do whatever, and you don't gotta remember nothin', or study, or pay rent, and you just party with rich people all the time? Where's the dotted line?

Topher: 'Everybody wants to be righteous when they can afford it'

Let Down | May 23, 14:35 CET

Didn't read the thread and hope this hasn't been covered yet. No wait; I hope it HAS.

What about Dollhouse (and other Whedon) characters in the Polaroids?? With so many from which to choose, it seems awkward and an odd choice to have duplicates of those already there.

Brett | May 23, 15:21 CET

Quick search shows this hasn't been done yet.

"That's it, shoulder to the wheel! Prove you're not just an echo."
-Richard (Episode 2)

Much as I disliked a lot of that episode, I love that line.

Nolan | May 23, 17:08 CET

"They're gonna throw the Kindle at you!"

Sly | May 23, 17:12 CET

So do characters quoting other works count? 'Cause when Topher said, "There's nothing good or bad but thinking makes it so." he was quoting Hamlet.

joni | May 23, 17:45 CET

"Are you OK?"
"Uh, yeah, I kick ass."

Pointy | May 23, 18:03 CET

Question: are there Dr Horrible quotes? I haven't noticed any...

Archduke Sebassis | May 23, 18:10 CET

There are, Archduke Sebassis. We had a thread like this a while ago for them.

joni: How about "There's nothing good or bad but thinking makes it so, man-friend", then?

Rachelkachel | May 23, 18:29 CET

"Would you like a treatment?"

I know it did not make it to the acutual episode that aired but I still love this quote:
"From 1 to Natural Born Killers?"

Jesusita | May 23, 20:26 CET

Oh, wait my quote was wrong is was:
"On a scale of 1 to Natural Born Killers?"

Jesusita | May 23, 20:34 CET

Mr. Dominic is exhibiting erratic behavior!

Sunfire | May 23, 21:52 CET

"Hang on. Hang on. I have another call. I have another ca-- I have a better call." - Topher

The One True b!X | May 23, 21:54 CET

"In a world where all men are equal until proven dead..." -Topher

(I forgot the rest of the quote but it works fine on its own.)

VigilanteSidekick | May 23, 22:22 CET

"You are a talking cucumber"

"That wasn't quiet." "Wasn't meant to be."

doubtful guest | May 23, 22:28 CET

@Rachelkachel: That works for me. :D

joni | May 24, 02:28 CET

I officially declare this thread as a Great Read[tm]. Should really link to it anytime someone says that Dollhouse was almost never witty or funny, as the evidence is right here to be seen by all.

Anyway, sorry to interrupt, please resume posting the funny and thoughtfull :)

GVH | May 24, 02:55 CET

As much as I love all the funny from Dollhouse (and I DO!), I agree with Archduke.....Dr. Horrible quotes and pictures are also required!

cinnamon_clover | May 24, 05:04 CET

Wading in here. I think all of my favorite lines have been posted already, but I'm gonna throw in votes for the "scowly babies" line. And "Porn!" And the "medicinal carrots" freak out perfection of Alan Tudyk.

We should definitely have an updated banner, including a Polaroid of Eliza, and one of Dr. Horrible!

kasadilla | May 24, 05:07 CET

"Yeah...it ain't oak, but...it's on its way to wood. Are we done...?" - Topher

phattyt | May 24, 05:43 CET

Yeah I agree with Kasadilla, we really need to start rockin' an Echo and Doc H up top, maybe even throw in snap of Season Eight Buffy for good merit.

Thuddles | May 24, 07:01 CET

"Ramirez pretends to be jaded, but she's got a secret stash of bodice-rippers in the van." - Victor

The One True b!X | May 24, 07:35 CET

"Somebody put her tiny little thinking cap on." - Topher

The One True b!X | May 24, 07:41 CET

All of these have been mentioned, but in case decisions are made partly on the basis of how many people want them, I'll add my favorites (leaving out the most obvious; "Did I fall asleep?" "For a little while", "Do you want a treatment or, "It's time for your treatment".)

>I'm. Not. Broken - Echo
>I have thirty-eight brains, and none of them believe you can sell yourself into slavery. - Echo
>We're pimps and killers. But in a philanthropic way. - Boyd
>Good Luck with the whole 'God" thing. - Topher
>Carrots! Medicinal carrots! For personal use. - Stephen/Alpha
>This house will fall. - Ballard
>I mean, officially I deplore violence, but that was totally worth the loss of karma points. - Topher
>Meanwhile, we suffer from unsightly visibility. - Alpha
>My whole life isn't real. - Ballard
>Why is there a tall, morally judgmental man in my imprint room? Other than Boyd. - Topher
>Baby, meet yourself. - Alpha
>I'm smarter that everyone in this room. But less scary. - Topher.
>If your child starts talking for the first time, you feel proud. If your dog does, you freak the hell out. - Dominic
>I'm not fooling. He's not kidding. We're not bluffing! Well, I'm bluffing, but the rest of us mean business. - Alpha
>You're sitting in some messed up dentist's chair, letting a guy who talks to himself attach wires to your head. Which incidentally is my head. - Echo
>I'm not comfortable having people in my home who aren't delivering me Thai food. - Alpha

Shey | May 24, 10:33 CET

I don't think any of these are here:

"Hence the exuberant price tag."

"Russia Georgia not sweet home Georgia."

"God didn�t make me see again so that I could just watch."

"Being what? Sarcastic? Unfeeling? British?" (my favourite Adelle quote except for "Maybe there�ll be cake.")

"Nice adjective, excellent noun."

"You�re in a lair! An evil lair!"

And to reiterate one of my favourite Mellie lines:

"I don�t think I�ve got any sugar left."

moley75 | May 24, 11:24 CET

Stuff a rabbit in it.

Are you going to be just an echo?

buffy1108 | May 24, 16:34 CET

I need a soup�on of rage, not a whole tasting menu.

Sunfire | May 24, 19:40 CET

Oh is that what he says? I always thought it was "a 'soup's on' of rage". Hah.

The One True b!X | May 24, 19:41 CET

Topher's a foodie, they keep dropping those little hints in.
