To be fair, wasn't Dollhouse not that good most of the time? I've only seen bits, so I can't say, but plenty of Whedon acolytes I know just plain didn't like this show.
I like it, because it raises some fascinating philosophical questions, probes into the nature of morality, reality and self, and puts Eliza Dushku in hot outfits, but it is very, very flawed.
Dollhouse was awful. T&A for the sake of smarmily deploring the exploitation of the premise, and a really disturbingly ablist episode (so I've heard) dealing with mental illness.
Big Firefly fan, but cheering that this was cancelled.
I think this was the last bits of his contract. hopefully he'll find a less abusive studio.
he could team up with dean devlin's gang of merry men who do leverage, because they have an 'alternate funding stream' for the show as well as the protagonists.
