Obviously there is a relationship between ratings and success. Even an dopey
southern, half wit like me can figure that much out. On the other hand, If your
network goes out of it's way to ruin your ratings before your show is even on
the air, you have to place the blame where the blame is due.
In this case, the network is the problem. To be less than polite, Fox
is totally fucking retarded. There's a bar here in Austin where the
patrons play bingo with live chickens. The player who's chicken shits
in the appropriate places first wins. The idiots at Fox could make their
programming decisions with the chickenshit bingo method and it would be
exponentially better than the first full drool cup method they
currently use. Worst network in the history of television ever.

This just in: 'Dollhouse' axed
This has been a busy week for cancellations. The latest addition to the TV
graveyard: Dollhouse.
According to multiple insiders, Fox has informed Joss Whedon that it will not
be ordering additional installments of his low-rated drama beyond the current
13-episode order. On the bright side, the network still plans to burn off the
remaining unaired episodes beginning in December. Hey, it’s something.
Dollhouse has been averaging a mere 3 million viewers this season. Last season
— when fan support, together with significant budget cuts, helped it to get an
odds-defying second-year pickup — the show averaged 4.7 million.
Bottom line: Dollhouse is lucky it ever saw a second season. Remember that when
you’re posting your eulogies below.
UPDATE: Whedon just posted the following statement on Whedonesque. com: “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.”
