Facts/Trivia

Interesting bits of info

  • Dollhouse is an American science fiction television series created by writer-director Joss Whedon under Mutant Enemy Productions.

  • The show premiered on February 13, 2009 on the Fox network. Episodes of Dollhouse are about six minutes longer than standard one-hour dramas on Fox television, as the show airs with half as many commercial advertising slots.

  • After the May 8, 2009 airing of the Season 1 finale, "Omega", the series went into a brief hiatus before being renewed for a second season of thirteen episodes. A thirteenth episode from Season 1, "Epitaph One," was not aired, but will be released on DVD and screened at Comic Con.

  • The names of the Dolls are all words from the NATO phonetic alphabet. This alphabet is used for radio communication because many letters sound the same over such connections. Thus one says "Alpha" instead of "A", "Bravo" instead of "B", and "Echo" instead of "E".

  • The Dollhouse theme song is "What You Don't Know", performed by Jonatha Brooke. It was written by Brooke and Eric Bazilian.
