Dollhouse Season Two

Keri · 05-12-2009, 02:25 AM

Global appear to have jumped the gun by showing an ad for Dollhouse - Season 2 returning this fall.

Fox seemed to dither about it when asked... but finally came forward with this statement:

“The series has not been renewed yet. Any renewal announcement would be made at the upfront Presentation a week from today.”

Maybe I'm just being optimistic, but I reckon it might be good to go.

Also, around the same time all this stuff was being speculated about Eliza posted the rather enigmatic "Wouldn't you like to know... Come on, can't really tell y'all EVERYthing. But keep coming back."

Hmmmmm. Man, new Dollhouse this fall would be awesome.

I don't want to get my hopes up but I totally am

if Fox doesn't pick it up could another network??? kind of like how Buffy moved?
or would Eliza's contract with Fox prevent that from happening

**andrew r** · 05-12-2009, 02:07 PM

Good questions liljemsey, I wonder if it'll benefit from moving to a different network. So a week today eh? It's like waiting for Cup Final tickets.

Sonya · 05-12-2009, 02:55 PM

I don't want to get my hopes up either, cuz this is already torture. But I sure do hope and pray it would be given a chance.

What we can do to help - ask FOX for second season by:
1. Email Mr. Peter Rice (Chairman of Entertainment) askfox@fox.com
2. Phone: 310-369-3066 (viewer comment line)
3. Tweet @FoxBroadcasting

Do you think there is a plan B in case FOX cancels?

Jess10 · 05-12-2009, 05:08 PM

Right now, all we can do is hope and wait for the Fall line up (next week). Sonia has a fantastic Idea about writing to FOX. Every little thing helps. As far as we know, Dollhouse is being discussed right now/this week. We also know that FOX WANTS this to work, they just need to make it financially doable, so they are working on that.

There's a RABID fan base out there for Dollhouse, we're getting all the 'Sleepies' together and spreading our love for DH!!

liljemsey · 05-12-2009, 06:01 PM

well Eliza tweeted this

ElizaPatricia: DOLLHOUSE talk's are goin' on~ it'd be an extravaganza bonanza to return 4 rnd 2!

can we take that as a good sign?

Jess10 · 05-12-2009, 06:22 PM

I'm taking it as an optimistic sign!

Longest week EVER.

trucherrygirl · 05-12-2009, 09:15 PM

I'll try to remain optimistic until I have a solid reason not to! Dollhouse... come back for a second season!!

Keri · 05-12-2009, 10:50 PM

Was just reading some stuff about a new show starring a guy from Fringe, they were talking about it being paired with the 2nd season of Dollhouse. Guess we have to wait until Monday to know for sure, but I too am keeping the faith ;)

Quote:

EXCLUSIVE: FOX picks up “Human Target”, considering Dollhouse pairing

.... We have heard FOX are considering pairing it with “Dollhouse”, or bringing in one of their other pilots for a back to back pairing in the Fall.

Quote:

Sources say Dollhouse fans shouldn’t lose hope; that despite the show’s recent ratings, the show is still alive. Whedon pitched the network on his vision for season two late last week. Discussions have commenced between Fox and the studio about how to make the show work financially.

Keri · 05-12-2009, 10:52 PM

Oh, just to add to Sonya's excellent post above, don't forget to also support the show where it counts as far as Fox are concerned ($$$$$), by preordering it NOW on DVD. =)

**andrew r** · 05-13-2009, 01:56 PM

Thanks for the news here Keri, it does sound promising.

Sonya: Well my plan b would be to have a hostile take over of F*x and run it ourselves.

Andrew! You've discovered the plot of Episode 13! Those photos we've seen is actually the cast of Dollhouse and all of us storming F*x and taking them hostage until the second season is produced!

Seriously, here's hoping they give them another chance, and I'm sure F*x is looking closely at the DVD sales. So, our duty is clear, get as many people as possible as excited about Dollhouse as we are.

thereyouare · 05-14-2009, 10:38 PM

Well we can only hope it will be on for Season 2 this fall. But, know Fox they will shoot 6 episodes more and take it off.

Sonya · 05-15-2009, 05:27 AM

Dollhouse fans crash FOX phone system asking for second series.

Submitted by Kevin.Beaumont on May 14, 2009 – 7:27 pm

Dollhouse actress Miracle Laurie mentioned fans should call FOX a few hours ago — likely unaware of what would happen. Reports started to emerge from fans about problems calling. We tried calling the viewer feedback number, to find it out of order. End Of Show checked with Fox, who confirmed their voicemail system has been floored by fans of Joss Whedon’s series asking for the show to return.
Sources at Fox say the show is still in the running for renewal and talks continue. The official line is that the announcement will be made at Fox’s upfront Presentation on Monday.

liljemsey · 05-15-2009, 07:02 AM

YAY for Joss Fans!!!
Hopefully Fox will get the message from those calls

**andrew r** · 05-15-2009, 02:32 PM

Lol! Yeah Tru, that sounds about right!

Exactly what happened with TC.

Cheers Sonya for the news! Fingers crossed the exec's take note!

trucherrygirl · 05-15-2009, 07:27 PM

I read that bit of news yesterday, but YAY for Joss fans! Don't mess with us!!

asho902 · 05-15-2009, 08:24 PM

Looks like Dollhouse might be renewed after all. It's been reported by Variety and it's been picked up by a lot of other news outlets, let's keep our fingers crossed.

As Fox preps for its upfront presentation on Monday, the net is said to be on the verge of renewing Joss Whedon's frosh drama "Dollhouse," and it has added another laffer to its frosh slate for the 2009-10 season.

Word spread Friday ayem that "Dollhouse" is looking good for a 13-episode sophomore renewal and is likely to stay in its Friday night berth. The 20th Century Fox TV fantasy drama starring Eliza Dushku has delivered modest but consistent ratings on a low-trafficked night, thanks to Whedon's built-in fan base.
