See What's In My Brain

Fox cancelled Dollhouse today.

Joss Whedon – clearly a man more gracious than I – had this to say over at Whedonesque:

Hmm. Apparently my news is not news.

I don’t have a lot to say. I’m extremely proud of the people I’ve worked with: my star, my staff, my cast, my crew. I feel the show is getting better pretty much every week, and I think you’ll agree in the coming months. I’m grateful that we got to put it on, and then come back and put it on again.

I’m off to pursue internet ventures/binge drinking. Possibly that relaxation thing I’ve read so much about. By the time the last episode airs, you’ll know what my next project is. But for now there’s a lot of work still to be done, and disappointment to bear.

Thank you all for your support, your patience, your excellent adverts. See you again. -j.

I say this:

First Firefly, now this.

SUCK IT FOX.  YOU’RE DEAD TO ME.

Meanwhile in related news, dripping bags of SHIT like Heroes and American Idol are still somehow polluting TV screens all over America.

I hope Whedon takes this opportunity to move into New Media and explore delivering his usual top notch content directly to viewers.  He’ll make a shitload of money and maybe traditional content providers like Fox will realize what a mistake they made.  Listen to the man himself talk about it:
