With the final season of
Battlestar Galactica starting up next week (sniff), the actors on that fabulous show need some new work. At least one of them has a pretty sweet gig set up:
Tahmoh Penikett (aka 'Helo') has been cast on Joss Whedon's new pilot.The pilot is called
Dollhouse, and it already stars
Eliza Dushku. The series is about four "dolls" who receive different personalities for each assignment (FBI, CIA? I dunno). Dushku's character begins to override the microchips that supposedly wipe out her memory and figures out who she is. Penikett will play an FBI agent who is obsessed with the
Dollhouse myth and set on finding out the truth.

OK folks, I'm a bit jetlaggy and all out of sorts, but this is the best I could pull together for you until I'm back on my game later today. As you know,
I'm out in Vancouver at a "digital press tour" thrown by Sci Fi for several of its hits shows, including, of course,
Battlestar Galactica. As part of the tour, we were all given DVDs of the interview panels we did for each of the shows (
Eureka, Stargate Atlantis and
Battlestar Galactica).
I'd like to thank the folks of Sci Fi and of course the guys from
Battlestar who took the time to come sit with us for an hour.
Part one of the panel is after the jump. I'll have the second part ready later today. Enjoy!
