Hope that someone picks it up if the movie doesn't bomb for some retarded reason.

Yep. Every episode of Dollhouse I saw was mindless, ridiculous idiocy and terrible, terrible acting. I watched the first 2, then I think the 5th or 6th episode (I think everyone here said it was great; and it was just as bad as when it started).

I just don't get it. I think maybe Fox actually recognized the nerd flak they got for canceling Firefly, and decided to give this one its unfair chance just b/c of name-recognition.

I never watched Firefly, but I thought Serenity was OK. based on that, I can see where Firefly probably did have potential. I don't dislike Whedon or anything, but I don't understand the "he can do no wrong" mentality. Dollhouse strikes me as a clear example that he can. ...and I've ALWAYS been able to tolerate Dusku's lack of talent and overall vapidness just to watch her 😉

A lot of shows are like that and go on to do well. Xena: Warrior Princess :heart: comes to mind. Sometimes people just want to be entertained and have a little eye candy. The only reason I watch Dollhouse is for Dushku's tight little body. It's the same reason I watched Tru Calling.

If I want something deep I'll go read a book.

I actually watched Xena and Hercules as a kid, and was very well entertained.

Hahahha, I remember that chick in the show.

She sure did have a nice rack.
 
I watched most episodes of dollwhores because it followed terminator. I will now go out of my way to never watch it again and if I knew whom the schmuck was at fox that made this decision I'd tell him the same.
 
🙁

The Unit was supposedly up against Without a Trace and Cold Case. One or two of those three were to be canceled. Now that we know Cold Case is renewed, chances are not good for The Unit.

It has been widely said that May 20 CBS will announce final renewal/cancellation notices.

I really hope it stays on.
 
Yep, I only watch one of those shows and if the unit goes that number becomes 0.


On the good side, unless there are some serious kick ass new shows next year the way this year is wrapping up my dvr will be getting a big break on recording.
 
seriously, cold case got renewed? that is a horrible show. the unit on the other hand is fantastic. gotta love it.
 
I was a fan, but The Unit lost its edge.

Good riddance.

Now maybe we can see President Palmer again in other "24" story.
 
Oh for the love of fuck, they canceled The Unit. What a crock of fucking shit. That was my favorite show. 🙁 :| 😀IEEEEEEEEEEE;

OP updated... moved Medium to canceled out of spite even though it's just moving networks 😛

Wow wow wow! What do you mean moving networks? (furiously starts googling)

Oh, Without a Trace is gone, oh well, never watched it. CSI crossover kinda sucked.

Edit: Took one minute of googling. So Medium was owned by CBS, and they plan on pairing it with Ghost Whisperer, so that probably means Flashpoint is gone.

That's a travesty then, they owned two shows with the same theme/idea (seeing ghosts).
 
FINALLY Earl is cancelled! Sorry guys but whenever I tried watching that show I just could not get into any of the humor at all. I like Ethan Suplee and that one chick is hot but the show just never appealed to me in the least, much like most of NBC's comedies.

Oh yeah. Gooooo Medium! Wish I could talk to ghosts.. that would be sweeeeeet!

Actually, the Unit lost it's favorable timeslot. I know I personally haven't watch it since it moved to "My wife's TV timeslot". 🙁
 
I'm going to miss Earl, that show was original. Glad to see Ted got renewed, that's another one that doesn't fit into the standard mold.
 
Earl really hasn't been too great since the first season. There have been some laughs in recent episodes, but the best one is still the Cops episode from season 1 😛.
 
So whats CBS got left, different variations of crime scene investigator shows?

The three CSI's. Cold Case. Numb3rs. NCIS plus its new spinoff. The Mentalist.

The variety in their primetime lineup is astounding.
