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.

    • Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store
    • Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
