And that's exactly the problem with Best Buy and their exclusive 4K/3D/BRD steelbook releases. They make a scant few, scalpers get most of them, and everybody else is SOL. (No 3D release, otherwise. )

Even forgetting about Soren, it still seems difficult to believe. Guinan said Picard would never want to leave, which makes more sense. (And yes, I realize it wouldn't have worked for the film if they had stayed in the Nexus.)

[My biggest problem with Generations is that the writers make Picard an idiot in the last quarter of the film (from the moment he enters the Nexus)] If the Nexus were anywhere near as good as they were suggesting, I find it hard to believe that either Picard or Kirk would have wanted to leave it...

As in 13 eps per season?

If the prices of the sets are any indication, Fox must have more confidence in this show than they're willing to admit. That, and greed.

Maybe just another diversion. "Grr, arrg" fit in well at the end of Buffy and Angel.

She was originally a missing person. Ballard had a tape she made, presumably given by whoever filed the report. He apparently was investigating the Dollhouse, linked Caroline to it, and then developed a Prince Valiant type thing. re: Ballard I don't think it's just the "signing into slavery"...

It could be argued that's still merely Echo reacting in a manner as the rich lady would have. In this case the benefit is to Adele. It's not entirely clear if she believes it was a facsimile, or actually her friend; but obviously rich lady believed it was going to actually be herself, after her...

That's what I was going to post!

Weak justification, but needing someone to push the button every 108 minutes could have been to ensure they kept monitoring the system, instead of simply nodding off or going fishing, etc. Those machines lasted a long time after their obsolescence, and a lack of anyone to supply replacement...

Presumably she quickly gave up trying to stop him from playing.

Maybe Daniel just mentioned the nuke hoping Batmanuel and company would remember him.

I don't, I wondered if someone else did. But isn't that the usual reason for abandonment?

Yeah. If she could remember it happening, that means neither she nor anyone else had done anything that could change the fact, and asking him to go back was inconsequential. I also miss Faraday.

I thought it was because he was personally absent for almost all of Dans life.
