According to the AP, Fox has officially cancelled Dollhouse. If you, like myself, are a big fan of just about everything Joss Whedon has ever done, then you are distraught at this news. Sure we all saw it coming after the cancellation of The Sarah Connor Chronicles, but it is still sad. Reports are saying that they will finish out this season and Joss is promising a big finale, but it will be a finale none-the-less. Lets just hope his new project comes sooner rather than later and he has the foresight to market it to a cable channel that will treat his shows the way they deserve, such as SyFy or USA. Until then, we’ll have to once again live without a Joss Whedon show on TV.

Joss, if you are for some reason gracing my blog with your presence, might I suggest yet another Buffyverse spin-off and turning Fray in to a series? The comic itself would make a fantastic two-part pilot and there are endless options from there for what you can do with a future slayer.

Either you’ve read the title of this post and immediately thought to yourself, “It was just renewed for another season, so there’s nothing to worry about!”, or you’re wondering who Joss Whedon is and what’s wrong with his dollhouse. If you fall in to the latter category, you are missing out on one fantastic new TV show. As soon as season one is available on DVD (July 28, 2009), I highly recommend that you go buy a copy and catch up on one of the smartest and most original new Sci-Fi shows on television. Given the chance, Dollhouse will surely end up being Joss Whedon’s finest work. Are curious yet? Read the following short description for more info on the show.

They can be anyone you want.

The Dollhouse is a very secret, and very illegal, place where wishes come true. Clients with the right connections and enough money can hire “Actives”, people who have been programmed to perfectly fulfill the needs, and desires of their clients. The Actives are people who have chosen, for their own reasons, to surrender their bodies and minds for a five-year stay in the Dollhouse. Now they can be imprinted with any personality, skill, or even muscle memory. They can be the perfect companion, lover, spy, assassin; and when the job is done they forget everything.

If you are already a fan of the show and, like me, let out an audible sigh of relief when Fox announced they’re giving the show a second season, you can’t just rest there. Nothing speaks to network executives louder than money and poor DVD sales will make Fox think twice about letting Dollhouse go beyond its second season. If you’ve enjoyed the first season as much as I have and want to see how the show plays out if it is given the chance for a full run, then the absolute best thing you can do to help it is buy the DVD and watch it when the next season starts. So please, because we know Fox doesn’t know what to do with a good show when it gets one and it will inevitably end up on the bubble again when they’re looking for their Fall 2010 lineup, do what you can now to show support for the show and keep it going.
