I know that international fans are having trouble watching the shows online sometimes, but is it not viewable for you on Hulu's Dollhouse Channel or Fox's Dollhouse Website? Since both contribute to the ratings of the show. And if we want Dollhouse to be successful, the viewings need to count. If you can watch the show through the FOX supported media, I urge fans to do so. |

neither of them work, it's like C4 on demand won't work in the US
i don't think many Whedon fans will be wanting to wait until it airs over here, but when it does i will def. be watching again

It is not illegal. I am not uploading the episodes myself. I am getting embed codes from different sites (which I check to make sure are legal) and adding them to mine so people can watch all the episodes at the one place.

Sorry The Charmed One, but I'm not sure I'm completely understanding how it works. Does what you're streaming still have the advertising commercials? My understanding is that the commercials still in place are what maintains the revenue stream to the companies who own the rights to the shows. Or you can buy the episode for $1.99 on Amazon.com. But I don't see how a completely free stream of the episode without commercials would be legal.
There's some talk on Whedonesque about how international viewers can still contribute to watching the show through a downloadable application that allows people outside the US to watch on Hulu:

Sorry about that. I did not realize I was doing anything illegal. Thanks for pointing this out to me. I have decided that I am going to keep my website open but I am not going to embed any videos. Therefore I will be deleting episodes from my website and turning it into a news/fansite and I will be adding links to Amazon, Hulu and fox so people can watch the episodes there and contribute towards the shows status. Thanks again for pointing this out to me  |

Thanks again for pointing this out to me No worries. I wasn't exactly sure if you'd perhaps found a loophole, but I'm glad that it was only a case of misinformation. I'd hate for you to have trouble in the future regarding Copyright Infringement, etc. |

I'm American living in the UK this year and I still have my iTunes set up to the American store, and I noticed they just added Dollhouse! I don't know if its on the UK store, but you should be able to buy it from the American store and I think that will contribute to ratings.

God, it really sucks when different countries get 'staggered' viewings of shows, or blocked content. It's a bunch of lawyery cockadoodle-doo, if you ask me.
I'm sorry you guys in the UK can't get the show. The interwebs have virtually erased all our political borders yet the TV business makes sure to hammer them into your head here at every turn.

(Thought I might as well post this in this thread)
Has there been any news on when/if Dollhouse is going to air in the UK? Or even what channel it would be on? I'm thinking it would be Sky1... Don't know why.
I wanna see it so bad, and on TV, not by download, so that I can get all my friends to wtach it too...

It would take months i think now for it to be in the UK and with the ratings it's bringing out on the night it's shown i think UK channels will be waiting now to see if it gets better ratings soon unless they count the DVR and Hulu, Itunes etc.
