Its really sad they ended the doll house , to me being given a firday timeslot would have been a no brainer to go to another network … this show is phenominal and fox only wants to play waht they think will succeed … reality crap …

Okay so Back to turning off the tv , because I hate CSI and reality tv , waiting for the blu rays and downloading from Itunes … Who needs tv , they clearly dont want us to watch it …

As for friday being a kiss of death, does anyone remember a little show on fox called the x-files which debuted and flourished on fox friday night lineup? they deffinately could of put dollhouse on with better shows and they should of. Wheadon is a god.

The blame for Dollhouse’s poor numbers lies with both the show and FOX, but rather more with FOX, IMHO. On the Dollhouse side, the central concept behind the show is a difficult one to convey,and the writers took a bit too long in coming to terms with where they wanted to go with the story. Perhaps a bit more pre-first episode story planning in the writer’s room would have helped? They needed to start the big central story arc sooner to hook in the audience. The bulk of the blame though has to lay at FOX’s feet. They placed the… Read more »

I am 41, my daughter is 20 and we absolutely LOVE Dollhouse! Yes, we have to DVR the episodes because she’s usually working and we always watch it together, but nonetheless we haven’t missed one yet. We even bought the season one DVD the day it came out. To hear the show will probably be cancelled is truly a great loss once again for ‘good’ tv. We agree with everyone here who has said change the night & give it a chance!!

Fox gets both ticks and crosses for its treatment of Dollhouse. It gets major props for renewing what was a dying show due simply to Whedon’s attachment, and also for committing to airing the entire thirteen episodes of Season 2. However, its treatment with regards to promotion of the show is bordering on sabotage. It shouldn’t be allowed to just renew a show and then just assume the ratings will be better this time around, with no promo money spent. Ellen Degeneres needs to put one of the cast members on her show – that’s the most watched talk show… Read more »

Everyone knows that Friday night is the kiss of death for any tv series. If FOX had wanted a decent audience they needed to pick a better night that Friday for a new show. webdiva is right, Fox’s lineup on Thursday with Bones and Fringe was awful, forgive me, but why compete with CSI and Grey’s. You’re just asking for your shows to be DVR’d, if they had put Fringe and Dollhouse on the same night, say, Tuesday, and Bones back on Wednesday, Fox might’ve had a shot at more viewers. Bones and Fringe don’t have the same audience and… Read more »

Friday night is a hard night for Dollhouse: it’s up against Stargate: Universe, competing for that same audience, and the various Stargate shows are among the most successful series that SciFi (whoops! hate that stupid new spelling …) Channel has ever had. Plus, that same sudience most likely watches Smallville on the WB before Stargate: Universe comes on. How, exactly, did Fox ever hope to compete with *that* combo??? Better not to — which means Fox really needed to find another week night to run Dollhouse and let it find its audience. Dollhouse could have easily been scheduled, for example,… Read more »

I wish they’d keep it. It was doing so good. How are we going to fill the gap between now and Epitaph? Plus, something has to be after Epitaph to give the “closure”…

I’ve never really been a Joss fan but I love love love Dollhouse

Networks are going to have to figure out new ways to determine what people are watching especially with shows that attract younger audiences. I am 26. Very few people I know my age watch TV. This is not to say that we don’t watch television shows. We do. We just don’t watch them on televisions (except when we buy the DVD sets later or have televisions hooked up to our computers). I am perfectly willing to contribute for content. Show me a way to pay the network directly, or give me a way to indicate to sponsors that I will… Read more »

Everyone is allowed to have their opinion… If Skysoldier173 says that Joss Whedon writes crap, we should respect him. He’s clearly not the only one thinking that.

( LOVE THE SHOW )

Hey Skysoldier173, Joss Whedon writes crap and Obama isn’t the coolest Prez since Clinton? You must be living in the alternate reality featured on Fringe.

Well from what we’ve seen here Joss wheddon still has a knack for writting garbage.Dollhouse was the latest in terms of crappy show by Mr. Wheddon along with Firefly,Angel, and let’s not forget Buffy the Vampire Slayer his first piece of garbage.Hopefully,Joss will take the hint and not create anymore crappy shows (we got enough dead air since Obama became president.)

I want to see Firefly back on. Fox brought Family Guy back, they can do the same with Firefly. I believe everyone except Morena and Nathan are available and their shows will tank soon enough.

Personally, I think this show was doomed the minute ratings for season 2 started coming in, but FOX may have learned their lesson after the outcry these last few years about their reputation as a “hanging judge” for shows that don’t take off right out of the gate. After all the “Firefly” campaigns, the angry reactions to shows that were cancelled after two or three episodes (“Drive”, anyone?), and their over-reliance on “American Idol” and “House”, FOX desperately needs to soften their image and at least make it appear that they’ll give shows a chance, and pleasing the man with… Read more »

this show would have an audience if they teamed it with the natural pairing of Fringe….
