Could A Familiar Face Be Returning to “Dollhouse?”

At the end of the first season of “Dollhouse,” Miracle Laurie’s character Mellie was set free from the title organization, part of a deal to buy the silence and complicity of Paul Ballard.

And when Mellie was freed from the clutches of the “Dollhouse,” it appeared to many that her time on the show might be over.

Not so fast says Laurie.  The actress recently told the Baltimore Sun that Mellie will be back for the second season of “Dollhouse.

“All I know for sure is that I’m coming back next season,” she told the paper. “I don’t actually know in what form I’ll be back. The writers are kind of teasing me—everybody knows but me.”

“Dollhouse” debuts on DVD and Blu Ray later this month and returns on Fox on Friday, September 25.  The season premiere is a week later than originally announced by Fox.  The network pushed back the premiere to allow series creator Joss Whedon to write and direct the first installment of season two.
