Yeah, because Dollhouse is really pulling in the viewers ...

The game last night might equal the same number of viewers as half (or more) of Dollhouse's entire season.

hahah true.

IMO they're screwing up their second chance with the lackluster season and no amount of hot dushku will save it if it continues that way.

I still like the show though :p

Finally, the way Sierra came to be a doll is revealed when she faces her Rossum Corp connection as an Active, on FOX at 9 PM. And of course, her link includes obsession and murder. This episode is directed by Jonathan "Will Riker" Frakes, who also directed several episodes of Roswell.

Fox to bench 'Dollhouse' during sweeps

This isn?t a good sign: Sources confirm to me exclusively that Fox has decided to pull Dollhouse off the schedule during November sweeps. Joss Whedon?s ratings-challenged drama is expected to return in December and air back-to-back episodes on Friday night.

Bottom line: Barring a ratings miracle, Dollhouse will be shut down for good after it completes its current 13-episode order.

Savor tonight's all-new Dollhouse: It'll be the last one until December. But you'll get a concentrated dose of the mind-wiping during the holiday season, including two hours in a row of Summer Glau.

A Fox rep tells io9 that this is the airing schedule for Dollhouse between now and 2010:

Friday, Oct. 23 (tonight) - Episode 204 (9PM-10PM et/pt)

Friday, Dec. 4 - Episode 205 & 206 (Summer Glau episodes 8PM-10PM et/pt)

Friday, Dec. 11 - Episodes 207 & 208 (8PM-10PM et/pt)

Friday, Dec. 18 - Episodes 209 & 210 (8PM-10PM et/pt)

That will leave three episodes of the show's 13-episode order for season two, yet to run. As for rumors that Fox is burning through those episodes of Dollhouse as quickly as possible, in order to clear a space on its calendar for the past-life detective show Past Life on Fridays in January, they're not entirely true. At least, Fox says there will still be "at least" a few episodes of Dollhouse left to run in January. (Or more, if the show gets a miraculous extension, which does seem admittedly unlikely.)

Also, says a Fox rep, "Past Life's premiere has not been announced at this time. So no, it's not scheduled for Fridays in January."

No surprise really after watching this series. Little highs here and there but not enough. I'll watch to the end though.

New episode, guess it wasn't on last week. Thanks for the heads up on the schedule.

yep last episode till December though

I don't think that was Victor's past as in pre-Dollhouse; I'm pretty sure he was a doll at that point, hence Nolan referred to him as not being real. I can't believe that after only 4 episodes they're already thinking about canceling the show. Personally I think all of the episodes this season have been at least "good enough," especially when compared to the rest of the shows on the air right now (House and Grey's Anatomy are fantastic, but everything else is just something to watch), and this last episode was brilliant. It won't shock me if it is canceled, though; the networks just love ****ing with Joss. Frankly I'm shocked we got a second season, so at least we have that.

    • This one baffles me...so they are creating a museum based around the Ship of Theseus? A museum is supposed to preserve things. It doesn't really work if the conversation goes, "I gazed upon Starry Night the other day, the colours were beautiful!" "Yeah...I didn't expect Godzilla to show up, though." Create a building devoted to displaying AI work, fine. The rainforest idea sounds interesting and I would consider visiting if they pay me a few bucks. But don't call it a museum...
    • >defenders of AI-generated artworks often claim that AI is just a tool It is not. It is the inhuman artist replacement. The human writing the prompt is the employer/manager requesting the work product of the artist -- a supervisory/descriptive job that doesn't carry with it any rights to the copyright of that work product at all. And since AI is not human itself, it can't gain copyright for anything it is asked to regurgitate or hallucinate, so it can't transfer that copyright to the employer/manager/human who asked for the output. This was all legally reaffirmed last year. So, no, while there are AI tools, AI slopware generation is NOT a "tool" in the legal definition of that word.

    • Google is opening the world's first AI museum in Los Angeles by Ivan Jenic Image via: Google Ever since AI image generators went mainstream, the debate over whether AI-generated art is real art hasn't let up. Those who don’t consider AI to be art say that if a machine does the creating and anyone can prompt it, there’s no skill involved, and therefore no art is produced. The counter-argument is equally persistent, as defenders of AI-generated artworks often claim that AI is just a tool, and that every major technological breakthrough, like the camera or the computer, was met with the same skepticism before eventually being accepted as a legitimate creative medium. Google’s position in this debate is clear. Which is no surprise, as the company is investing billions in AI infrastructure. And now, in efforts to encourage people to use its AI even more, Google is opening Dataland on June 20, which it's calling the world's first AI arts museum. Located inside The Grand LA, a Frank Gehry-designed building in Los Angeles, the museum spans 25,000 square feet. The museum is built around a collaboration with media artist Refik Anadol, who has worked with Google since 2016. The inaugural exhibition is called Machine Dreams: Rainforest, and is powered by an AI model trained on “an extensive dataset of the natural world.” It generates 1.2 billion pixels of visuals in real time and reacts to visitors dynamically. The space also generates soundscapes, real-time emotion sensing, and algorithmically produced scents. Image via: Refik Anadol Studio / Google Google says that the museum is powered by its Gemini models, which run on Google Cloud. So, everything is generated inside one of Google’s AI data centers and is streamed to the museum. Alongside the museum opening, Google Arts & Culture is funding an AI Artist Residency, giving four artists $25,000 grants each, along with mentorship from Refik Anadol Studio and access to Google's machine learning tools. Their work will be shown at Dataland and on the Google Arts & Culture website later this year. Google’s AI museum will undoubtedly initiate a fired-up debate on social media, and we can’t wait to see the first reactions. Via: Smithsonian Magazine
