(SPOILER) Eliza Dushku on whether Amy Acker will return to Dollhouse. TVGuide.com's Mega Buzz also answers the question if the lower budget for Season 2 will lead to cuts on the staff. As ever, there's also spoilers for other shows.

Sounds like a very reduced role at the least?

I don't think so Apocalypse - Eliza said she doesn't know and 'hopes' Amy will be back. Even if it's more than just her hope she says at the least Amy will be back now and then.

Beyond that situation, sources assure me that snipped Season 2 budget or not, the Dollhouse staff will suffer no casualties.

Hm, that sounds great. But didn't Tim Minear once say that first thing you do between Season 1 and 2 is to fire all writers? :)

And I think we can assume that neither Steven DeKnight nor Jane Espenson will return to their producer/writer role since they both have their own shows to run.

... at the very least she hopes Amy will be back now and then.

Bit of a difference :(

Of course they have the perfect solution when Amy isn't available, they can just imprint Victor as the doctor. Or they could get David Tennant.

Or they could get David Tennant.

That was incredibly cruel, Zoic_Fan, planting that idea in my head when it's never going to happen! David Tennant in the Dollhouse--now there's something I'd pay big money to see.

I was so hoping that Whiskey would be the Doll they start sending for all their criminal gigs / assassinations (to show off Acker's sexiness and fight skills etc.) perhaps with Victor as Sierra's handler? Or, keep Saunders as the doctor, and have Victor be the contract-voided secret agent guy.

(Thinking about David Tennant in the Dollhouse shower now, pardon me for a moment...)

as much as i love david tennant as the doctor, my heart will always be with christopher eccelston(sp?). he's way out of budget, but god he'd make such a good 'mentor' to alpha >.>

kefka | May 20, 16:26 CET

I hear you, knitgrrl.

And I adore Christopher Eccleston just as much (though I'd much rather have David Tennant be the one in the shower). You're right, kefka: he would be absolutely fabulous interacting with Alpha. Curse you people putting wonderful ideas in my head that will never come to fruition!

Lirazel | May 20, 18:49 CET

Oh, say it isn't so... Whiskey & Topher/Claire are the top storylines I was curious to see Season 2 expand on. :(
