Dollhouse 2x07 full-length reaction

For copyright reasons, full-length reactions don't include the show or movie footage, so you'll need your own copy to watch along with me. Ideally, you'll need two screens or two browser windows. One for the reaction, and the other for the show you're watching. Using your phone is also viable to watch one of them. 

As many different streaming services in different countries often play trailers or recaps before the show starts, the easiest way I've found to sync up footage is to find the first RECOGNISABLE frame (ie. not a black screen) of the episode. Don't worry, I'll show you the frame to look for at the beginning of each full-length reaction! 

This will be:

✨The first frame of the opening credits.✨

OR

✨The first frame of the cold open.✨

Once you've found the approximate frame on your copy, pause it. Next, play the reaction and you'll see a countdown timer at the end of the intro and when the show is about to start. Press "play" on your copy when the timer reaches 0:00. 

A small (but muted) portion of the show will stay on the screen to allow you to properly sync up your copy if you need to adjust it. The easiest way to eliminate any small discrepancies between the two is to rapidly pause and unpause the video that's ahead until both are running simultaneously. 


Note: Some of my older shows might have the first frame after the opening credits.

I thought I was losing it haha. Thanks for clarifying!

No, you didn't miss anything. Not only did they do a time jump without any visual or even context clues (other than us just having to wait and figure it out) the entire episode is very heavy on the red herrings and misdirects. I have to imagine it's all very intentional, to make us feel uneasy and confused but it definitely borders on being almost a little too clever for it's own good. Normally I'm a big fan of stuff being out of context and trusting the audience to figure it all out but this one almost pushes it a little too far, especially for first time viewers.
