Fox Officially Cancels Joss Whedon’s Dollhouse
Let’s face it, this isn’t that much of a surprise. The ratings have been abysmal, even with some positives from time-shifted numbers, Joss Whedon’s “Dollhouse” never really took off as Fox had expected, or was hoping for after giving it a year two commitment. As it turns out, maybe they should have saved “Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles” instead — or perhaps, it wouldn’t have mattered anyhow. Of course, it didn’t help putting the genre show on a night that has been given somber nicknames like Friday Night Death Slot and Graveyard Shift. That’s like going on a date with someone name “Body Odor Bob” and then wondering why he smells.
The Death of Dollhouse? FOX Doesn’t Appear Optimistic.
Love it or hate it, any show that allows the gorgeous Eliza Dushku to parade around onscreen acting like a slut in service of “story” is a-okay in my book. But apparently not so much for most Americans, because Whedon’s “Dollhouse” continues to struggle in the overnight ratings, though seems to be making up for it with time-shifted numbers, i.e. DVR’s, online viewing, etc.
First Look at Summer Glau in Dollhouse
Here’s your first look at the delightful Summer Glau doing the first of her multi-episode arc on Joss Whedon’s “Dollhouse”. Summer will make her first appearance in the 2.05 episode “Public Eye”, airing October 30, 2009. She will be playing a character named Bennett, a programmer who supposedly shares a past with Eliza Dushku’s Echo.
Dollhouse Will Air All Lucky 13 Episodes
I haven’t been keeping up with “Dollhouse”. There’s really no reason for it, I just, well, have a lot of other things to do on Friday, and watching TV is really not one of them. I have a hard enough time finding room to watch my DVRs of “Stargate: Universe”. Having said that, if you are a fan of Joss Whedon’s “Dollhouse”, then rest assured, FOX has officially announced that they will, indeed, air all 13 episodes of the show’s Season 2.
SyFy Boasts About Stargate Universe Ratings, Dollhouse Beatdown
Sounds like SyFy is pretty happy with Friday’s two-hour premiere of their latest new show, Stargate: Universe. Besides trumpeting the “best franchise premiere performance in four years”, the channel’s press release also took time out to get a rib kick into Joss Whedon’s poorly performing Dollhouse on network (i.e. free) TV.

Psyched for the return of Joss Whedon’s Dollhouse to the FOX line-up? Well you better be, because if the ratings aren’t there, no amount of post-cancellation hullabaloo or petition signing is gonna get the network to bring the show back for a third go-around, so you Whedon fans best show up. Check out a promo video for the upcoming Season 2 to get you ready.
Get A Nice Taste Of Unaired Dollhouse Episode Epitaph 1
Despite the obvious and various charms of Eliza Dushku, I haven’t been able to keep up with “Dollhouse”. I have love for Joss Whedon, the creator of Dollhouse, for his previous work with Firefly and also Buffy, but Dollhouse didn’t immediately grab me and since I have had my attention span surgically removed as a child, most of the Dollhouse season passed me by.
Promos for Dollhouse 2.01 Vows
Jamie Bamber is married to Eliza Dushku, but Tahmoh Penikett ain’t gonna like that. The two Battlestar Galactica vet face off in the Dollhouse’s Season 2 premiere, the 2.01 episode “Vows”. Promos from the upcoming episode, which premieres Friday, September 25th, below.
Summer Glau Officially Enters the Dollhouse, Other Casting Notes
Whedon fanboys have been clamoring for it ever since Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles got the axed and Joss Whedon announced that it was a possibility four months ago, and now it’s official: Summer Glau will indeed be joining the cast of Whedon’s Dollhouse.
Latest Dollhouse Season 2 Poster
Granted, Joss Whedon fans will watch pretty much anything with the man’s name stamped on it, but for everyone else it helps to have a star like Eliza Dushku. Check out the latest poster for Fox’s upcoming Dollhouse Season 2 featuring its star.
Dollhouse Season 2 Promo Images
Eliza Dushku brings the Dollhouse crew back for a second season, thanks to a decision by FOX to renew Joss Whedon’s show while sending Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles to the junkyard. Here are some promo images from the second season. Yes, I’m still just a tad bitter.
New Dollhouse Promo Image Reveals a Dangerous Echo
I don’t know about you, but I was one of the people who was shocked when the Powers That Be at the FOX network decided to cancel Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, while giving Joss Whedon’s show Dollhouse a second season. Really? Dollhouse over Terminator? It just didn’t seem right. Anyways, the second season of Dollhouse is coming back Fridays starting on September 25, 2009 at 9/8 central time, and here’s a new promo shot of Eliza Dushku doing her Echo thing. Girl looks good, I’ll give her that, although these new batch of Dollhouse promos can’t possibly match the near-nude ones she did last year. Now those were promos!
Summer Glau on Dollhouse? It’s Possible Says Whedon
With her show Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles now canceled by the geniuses over at FOX, Summer Glau is looking for a job. Say, how about reuniting with her Firefly and “Serenity” bud Joss Whedon over at his new show Dollhouse? You know, the show that got renewed despite being of way lesser quality than Glau’s own Terminator show? Yeah, that one. Maybe Whedon can get her on the show as compensation?
