Dollhouse Canceled

In news more frustrating than it is surprising, FOX has canceled Joss Whedon's Dollhouse. This marks the second time that FOX has canceled a Whedon show due to low ratings after placing it in it's moratorium Friday night spot. The first time of course, was Firefly.

Dollhouse featured a pretty cool show to show plot about a group of operatives who could be programed to be anyone for whatever they were hired out to do, then returned to the mentality of docile children when they came back to The Dollhouse after the missions end. The overarching season one story was about Alpha, the one Doll who maintained aspects of his different installed personalities, and became a super-solider psycho. All this happened while Echo, the main Doll, played by Eliza Dushku, started to retain imprinted personalities as well. The show really kicked ass.

FOX plans to run the remaining 8 episodes of the 13 episode 2nd season. Whedon has stated that he would like to return to more internet work, his most famous being Dr. Horribles Sing Along Blog.
