This past week's episode of Dollhouse made up for the slow build of the first few episodes. And like any good show of the last few years its aleady been canceled.
I guess there is a chance that another network would pick it up... but I am guessing probably not...So next week's episode is the last.
If you haven't heard... there is an "extra" episode that may or may not make to air, that was made becase the original pilot episode was so terrible it was determined to be unable to air. So if that was the case why did FOX pick the show up in the first place??
I am not sure what Network TV is trying to do anymore.... Serial TV shows need weeks to build buzz and an audience. Why do they air something 2 times and then cancel it?? What's the point of investing??
In today's climate :
Would Dallas have made it to the point where the nation wondered "Who Shot JR?"; Would The X-Files have made it to the point where Scully got cancer?? Would Buffy the Vampire Slayer have made it to the point where there could be an Angel spin-off??
I can see how Reality TV really will be the future for Network TV. The cable networks (ie TNT, FX, AMC) really do seem to be building a better stable of serialized dramas.
