LOL, I love it when she was like: "As you can tell I'm in and out of your frame" Eliza is probably one of the most down to earth people I've ever come across in this business...It's really cute how quirky she gets everytime she's really excited about something. Loved her on her last show TC and I can't even begin to express my perennial admiration for her portrayal as Faith on BTVS and Angel...Come January Eliza and Amy Acker are gonna rock nationwide television!

Whedon = God

Dushku = Goddess

@Altonahk Also? It's "you're" not "your". But I'M the one lacking mental capacity of course ;)

[Browncoatt22]

@Altonahk I think you're confusing acting with attractiveness. Eliza Dushku seems like a really nice person, a smart person, and someone who dedicates time to charity etc, so a caring person too. She is also super pretty of course. But she cannot act. Maybe small parts like Faith in Buffy becuse she wasn't the focus of the show. But when she was given Dollhouse and became the protagonist, it became all too obvious that she just doesn't have the acting capability to pull off a lead role. Sorry.

[Altonahk]

@Browncoatt22 Really? You don't think she can act? She's among the best. Your obviously lacking in the mental capacity.

[Browncoatt22]

Dollhouse was a good show ruined by her. Tru Calling was an ok show ruined by her. The woman is very attractive but CANNOT ACT. Even when she was in Buffy she couldn't act, it just didn't matter too much then because she wasn't the focus of the show. When she beacame the lead in those shows she showed how little range & depth she really had. She has no emotional ressonance, no ability to play a complex individual, & no charisma whatsoever. Whedon needs to find himself a worthy muse

i second that. Fox are in it for the money, they keep talent from manifesting itself, exactly like the firefly rights and now dollhouse, and sarah connor..grrr..i wish the viewers had a say and a way of supporting this project to go on.

i feel kinda sorry for Joss

Joss is of the most unique and genius creators out there, an Fox has really screwed him over.

they cancelled firefly, and didnt air 3 episodes, then they prevented him from creating more movies with the Firefly name, since Fox still owned the rights.

Then they cancelled the highly underrated and unpromoted Dollhouse

FOX are such Bastards

[geraintsouthgateBTVS]

just on Buffy even though she was origionaly a "Bad girl" she still managed to make the character realy diverse and add so many layers, i mean when she played missy in bring it on that character was also a "bad girl" but the way eliza played it was sooo different. i think shes great, and dollhouse is awsum x
