Joss may have thought Fox deserved another chance: it didn’t

Quick note to Fox: this is why I’m not watching your shows any more:

Fox has decided not to renew Joss Whedon’s sophomore series “Dollhouse” for a third season.

There’s no point watching a series that’s building to something on Fox, because they’ll just cancel it – no matter how excellent it is. Firefly. Sarah Connor Chronicles. And now Dollhouse. What’s the point of starting a story you know they’ll never finish?

What does Fox have against Summer Glau?

This time I didn’t bother. And I’m glad I didn’t.

I wonder how far they can push this particular audience before they lose them completely.

PS On the plus side, this almost certainly means more Dr Horrible.

  1. um, yeah, the next dr horrible’s already inder development, monsieur fillian has confirmed that.

    (ps, last week called?)

  2. I try not to post this sort of stuff during the week.

  3. To be fair – Dollhouse season one was fantastic, but season two has bored me to tears.

  4. Fox canceled the show with enough lead time for Joss to do a proper finale. So there is that small bone they’re throwing us.

  5. Ummm – if shows don’t rate, they get cancelled. Is there something i missed?

  6. If you liked Dr Horrible, this fan art is pretty fine, actually: http://www.horribleturn.com/

  7. its ok, the hollywood tv schlockmeisters might be messing everyone about, but modern warfare 2 is out… couch potatoes can take solace with some mindless death porn, piped fresh from the pentagon…

  8. Agreed, season 2 has been really disappointing. Its cancelled has surpsied noone.

    Shoulda stuck with Terminator, Fox.
