Let's hear your episode title suggestions. I'll go with 'Change'.

Simon | July 08, 18:34 CET

Didn't you have Friday poll about that on twitter? You could give us a best of the answers you received. :)

wiesengrund | July 08, 18:39 CET

"Man of the House".

The One True b!X | July 08, 18:40 CET

Yessssssssss this makes me so happy.

Jobo | July 08, 18:46 CET

"Purple".

gossi | July 08, 18:58 CET

"Topher's Bulging Boxers" - A Left-field experimental installment told from the perspective of Topher's Penis.

Sure to become Dollhouse's "Hush".

Apocalypse | July 08, 19:12 CET

No, the penis episodes don't start until at least season 8.

gossi | July 08, 19:15 CET

"TANKs For The Memories" - The Dollhouse learns that the government has been running a parallel project, codenamed: TANK, when one of its subjects escapes.

And suddenly I feel less of a Jossgeek.

gossi | July 08, 19:19 CET

Or Season Six if we're going by Buffy. Who can forget Doublmeat Palace...*Shudder*

Apocalypse | July 08, 19:20 CET

It always seems like the Dollhouse is on the verge of falling apart or being discovered so I'm going to go with "House of Cards".

Probably not the best title for an opening episode though, assuming things have stabilized a bit from the events of "Omega".

TOASTERslayer | July 08, 19:22 CET

"Encore" - A failed playwright (special guest star: Joss Whedon) wins the lottery and enlists the Dollhouse to bring his all singing, all dancing dream to life.

Barry Woodward | July 08, 19:38 CET

"House Alone". Topher^* is by himself in the Dollhouse when a pair of bumbling criminals tries to rob the place on Christmas.

^* Or it could be Bicks, if they wanted.

The One True b!X | July 08, 19:49 CET

How about, "Silent Echo" where Echo runs away and becomes a waitress named...Anne. (Seen it?) Well it seems more season 3 appropriate anyway ;)

alexreager | July 08, 20:13 CET

Caroline, Renewed, Epitaph Won? No... fine, let's just go with "Foxtrot" - not only does it follow "Echo" (the season one premiere title) in the NATO phonetic alphabet but it should make the network happy, which is deserved after the S2 pickup and all :)

Who would play Foxtrot? Since Foxtrot is a ballroom dance, it would need to be someone who can dance and is a star but not from dancing with the stars. Let's say a female, and it couldn't hurt to bring in a rumored whedonverse alum either. So, ah, let's just bring in Summer!

RIPWesley | July 08, 20:58 CET

"Hoban Alpha" - Alpha becomes distraught when his favorite pilot character is killed off, and decides to take on his personality in this wacky episode guest starring Nathan Fillion, Adam Baldwin and Summer Glau.

AnotherFireflyfan | July 08, 20:59 CET

"How to Wipe Fried Dolls." Alpha uploaded a virus with the creation of Omega. It has been slowly working its way through Topher's systems and causing all manner of havoc in the dolls.

BreathesStory | July 08, 21:02 CET

"Explain Yourself" Ballard shows up, handling Echo. Has to explain to his Ex-Wife what the hell he is doing (or not doing). Gulp.

thehague | July 08, 21:05 CET

"All about Victor."
Well, OK. Maybe not all. "Lots about Victor."

jcs | July 08, 21:22 CET

Damn it! J/K!

I'm with jcs.

josswhedonaddict | July 08, 21:34 CET

I like these proposed season openers. How about "Gepetto", looking at the early attempts to make Actives? May not open a season, but would make keen backstory.

impalergeneral | July 08, 21:39 CET

I've got a Dollhouse spec I'd be happy to pass along to Joss and co. if they're looking for ideas ;)

Jobo | July 08, 21:43 CET

Shiny Happy People!
At least the fans are, after all the waiting for the renew.

Brasilian Chaos Man | July 08, 21:44 CET

"Soul"

ZachsMind | July 08, 21:46 CET

'A Fox in the House'

Yorick | July 08, 21:59 CET

"Rewind."

Sunfire | July 08, 22:00 CET

"Respite". No dolls are out as the dollhouse takes some time to recover, and then something happens... :O

cabri | July 08, 22:06 CET

"Five Miles out, or 'Victor, Juliet's your identity.'"

peacemonger | July 08, 22:09 CET

What?! What happens?! Argh!

Ahh! Bears!

The One True b!X | July 08, 22:09 CET

"Once More With Feeling" - Where the characters are forced.. to...

Well I can dream can't I?

Nightshot | July 08, 22:09 CET

Nightshot, maybe that singer could came back and now she needs a lot more backing vocals.

Brasilian Chaos Man | July 08, 22:13 CET

"Valley Of The..."

Though that should have been episode one.

zz9 | July 08, 22:28 CET

You can´t stop the signal (or rather: You cant stop the dollhouse)

Kessie | July 08, 23:21 CET

How about "Glass Figures" or "Empty Faces" (kinda rhymes with "Empty Places")

could go with the "Purple Haze"

or I like "Piece of Blue Sky"
cause they never see it...

mariec | July 09, 00:06 CET

How about "Nude Souls" to compete with Nude Bears?

LOL @ bix

Love these ideas.

korkster | July 09, 00:36 CET

"Menagerie"

CrazyKidBen | July 09, 00:37 CET

"They're not dolls, they're action figures".

(maybe it's a bit long)

GVH | July 09, 01:06 CET

Victor's Vector
Whiskey's Sour
Alpha Dog
Doll Encounter at Farpoint

(ok, that's just silly)

kazzmere | July 09, 01:10 CET

GVH that needs to be a spin-off series haha nice!

silent knight | July 09, 01:59 CET

"Nielsen never saw this coming" ;-)

AnotherFireflyfan | July 09, 02:48 CET

"Dolls in the Attic." There's a lot more stashed away in that attic besides Dominic...

"High Sierra." The dolls are lent out to an DEA sting operation.

"Victor/Victoria." Victor is sent in as a ringer to a drag queen contest.

BreathesStory | July 09, 02:55 CET

mariec, I LOVE "Piece of Blue Sky" as a title. Very Firefly-esque.

Apocalypse | July 09, 09:46 CET

The press release mentions Butters & Fazekas as being co-executive producers (just like Craft & Fain were), but also Tim Minear as executive producer (previously consulting).

wiesengrund | July 09, 12:39 CET

It's hard to come up with an episode title suggestion when you have no idea what the ep is going to be about (at least if you totally avoid spoilers, like me).

But I like sunfire's idea (Rewind) - it could apply to a lot of potential plot lines.
Or better yet Reset - one good tip of the hat deserves another, and Torchwood actually gave Joss two (End of Days and Sleeper).

"Nielsen never saw this coming" ;-)
AnotherFireflyfan | July 09, 02:48 CET

OK, that one takes the witty prize. ;)

Shey | July 09, 13:16 CET

"Victory" - Echo remembers her defeat of Alpha after seeing Victor's face.
"A New Dell" - Adelle has to come to terms with her failure in containing the Alpha situation. She builds her own Death Doll.
"Bravo" - Sam (now designated Bravo) starts to question the meaning of the art class.
"When She Was Good" - Boyd and Adelle try to come up with a present for Echo, since she's the savior of the Dollhouse.
"Whiskey in a Jar" - Dr. Saunders copes with the knowledge of being a doll by teaching Victor to become the new Doctor.
"Hotel" - The whole House listens incessantly to Broken Social Scene, when Adelle's ex-husband Jeff Tweedy breaks in to give them the Radio Cure.

wiesengrund | July 09, 14:30 CET

"The Doll Files." On Ballard's first official day on the job, he's shown to "the basement," a room of endless shelves and file boxes containing records revealing a deep government conspiracy going back to WWII. The goal? To have the ability to control and manipulate key scenarios.

BreathesStory | July 09, 15:33 CET

"If You Watch This Episode You'll Be Entered Into a Drawing For Two Million Dollars, Tax-Free."

The Dark Shape | July 09, 19:03 CET

The catch? The drawing is held by the Fox Store.

Jobo | July 09, 19:27 CET

"The Doll Files."

I would enjoy a Paul spinoff with Loomis as his FBI or PI partner. She brings something pretty great to her scenes with him.

Sunfire | July 09, 19:34 CET

Casting call just popped up online, complete with a title.
