Official Dollhouse site gets revamped for the premiere.
And very pretty it looks too.

Although the manequins always remind me of Nip/Tuck (not that I'm complaining)

we've had the discussion before, but I don't remember.

And the site looks good.

I dunno for sure if we have had that discussion before, but if we did, I didn't read it, and couldn't find it.
So, well, with the advent of computers for graphic design, I appear to have lost my ability to retain the slightest bit of information about individual typefaces, but my only slightly-informed opinion is that the Dollhouse logo is a very tweaked hybrid of bits of typefaces like: Cable, Serpentine, a Eurostile variation, a Star Trek Federation font, and though it's really not much like it, it keeps reminding me of some kind of Eras font variation.
That distinctive "d" is killing me, though - it keeps poking at the tip of my brain, but I'm also inclined to think it's been completely fabricated/tweaked in Illustrator or something.
There. That's about as not-helpful as I can be today. I hope I was able to obfuscate things for you nicely. No, no, no thanks are necessary - glad to help.
(Oh, and apropos of nothing except that I noticed it when I was looking for previous Dollhouse logo font discussions, this previously-posted interview with Joss and Eliza appears to have gone "private" on youtube for some reason...)

I'm not sure how I feel about the new site. I like it plenty, and it looks nice and full of things, while the other looked somewhat empty. But I miss the Eliza logo.

After having done a little poking around, it appears that the Spike Ferensten/Eliza Dushku/Joss Whedon interview seems to have been memory-wiped from existing officialdom, but is still available here and there on the internet. I hadn't seen it before, but now that I have, I kinda understand why it's gone. Though Joss and Eliza are their usual wonderful together, it's kinda off-putting, too - Spike doesn't seem to have a clue about how to talk to Eliza and there are moments when it's all too apparent.
I agree with the folks on the original October, '08 whedonesque thread who found this a little of the creepy.
