Just a small post to wish Miss Acker a wonderful birthday today, she turns 33. Here’s hoping she had a good day surrounded by family & friends.

Feel free to leave your birthday wishes in the comments section.

Thanks to The Watcher, we’ve finally received confirmation on which episodes Amy shall be appearing in this season, in order to complete her 3 episode arc;

2×11 – Getting Closer (airing January 8, 2010)
2×12 – The Hollow Men (airing January 15, 2010)

A little bit of a wait, but we know we have a treat in store!

First off, apologies for the lack of updates lately but there hasn’t been any news and I’ve been a little busy to screencap anything else but I do have holidays coming up so stay tuned!

In the meanwhile, gossi at Dollverse has posted a wonderful non-spoilery description of what to expect from the upcoming episodes of Dollhouse — it’s gonna go out with a bang, that’s for sure!

Episodes 5+6 – The Public Eye, The Left Hand
December 4th 2009
Written by Andrew Chambliss | Tracy Bellomo

Why you should be excited: You’ve Summer Glau and Alexis Denisof in two new hours of Dollhouse which pick apart the Dollhouse universe. Players of the Dollhouse ARG should be pleasantly surprised, too. Also, watch out for Enver: he’s going to make your jaw hit the floor. (You know, again).

Overall style: Arc.

Episodes 7+8 – Meet Jane Doe and A Love Supreme
December 11th 2009
Written by Maurissa Tancharoen & Jed Whedon & Andrew Chambliss | Jenny DeArmitt

Why you should be excited: There’s more Whedon alums this week’s episode. Nobody is safe. The events of Epitaph One start to come into play here.

Overall style: Arc.

Overall why you should be excited: Well, you know how ‘overall style’ says ‘Arc’ for all these episodes? That’s just one reason of many. It’s a 9 hour rollercoaster of an end – which midway through chucks you out the cart into terrifying oblivion.

Now that I have season 5 of Alias on DVD, I was able to go through the boxset and screencap the DVD extras that I’d missed the first time around, thus this section is now completely up-to-date! I also replaced the ‘Celebrating 100 Episodes’ featurette to provide additional screencaptures. Gallery links and previews are below, enjoy!

Well, we knew all along that Amy was rumoured (but believed to be true) to have a part in the Drew Goddard-Joss Whedon horror film, The Cabin in the Woods, but it has now been confirmed by none other than Amy’s Dollhouse co-star, Fran Kranz, on his Twitter in response to a fan’s statement.

there’s still more dhouse. And there’s more of joss amy and I in cabin in the woods too

There’s a somewhat spoilery interview from Joss Whedon with TV Guide Magazine regarding the upcoming storyline(s) for Dollhouse and it touches on Amy’s character; she will indeed be returning for those 2 other episodes! The relevant quote has been posted below.

Does Amy Acker return for more episodes? Is she still Saunders?
Amy Acker will return. We have two more episodes that we’re allowed to use her because of [her new ABC series] Happy Town. She comes back in an interesting fashion that I will in no way describe to you, a little bit later on. She’ll be the Doc, Claire Saunders. Where she’s been may be a surprise to people.
