Dollhouse Returns to Fox for Nine Final Episodes

DOLLHOUSE:  Topher (Fran Kranz, second from L) and Paul (Tahmoh Penikett, L) help Echo (Eliza Dushku, R) in the "Instinct" episode of DOLLHOUSE airing Friday, Oct. 2 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. ©2009 Fox Broadcasting Co. Cr: Isabella Vosmikova/FOX If you haven’t noticed, I love Joss Whedon’s Dollhouse.  It returns from its hiatus December 4th to finish its run.  I’ve written a post over at TVverdict.com regarding elements I think viewers should be on the lookout for as the series ends.  Below is an excerpt:

Friday, December 4th marks the return of internet fandom’s favorite cancelled series—Dollhouse.  Fox is airing all of the remaining episodes in two-hour blocks in order to fulfill their half-hearted promise to see the series through to the end of season 2.

Now, I admit that I’m saddened by this.  I loved Dollhouse probably more than any new series in years.  It had such potential.  Actual literary potential that just is not found in most television shows these days.  But since it’s on a major broadcast network instead of a cable niche channel, its small but dedicated fanbase was not enough to keep the Actives, well, active.

There are nine episodes left, which leaves plenty of room for things to look forward to.

Head on over to TVverdict to read the rest of the article and see what I’m looking forward to most as Dollhouse draws to an end.
