  5. Wow! You guys are defeating these warriors by a landslide in this cult-tv gallery! Great job.

    The only three outstanding are 12, 13, and 15 (which isn't Dollhouse, though that actor did star in Dollhouse!)

    Great job everyone!

    best,
    John

  8. More excellent answers here!

  9. Is #15 Tahmoh Penikett from Battlestar Galactica?

  10. BT: That is indeed Tahmoh Penikett, but not from Battlestar Galactica or Dollhouse, oddly enough! He also appeared on another series, playing a super soldier. He did a "super" job, if that helps narrow it down...

    All my best,
    John
