This show killed the comp in quality. Seriously, Dollhouse? Ugh.

Oh, Dollhouse is a fine show and I'm glad it got it's second chance. I think Whedon will find his voice there in season 2.
But you're right. Terminator quietly turned into one of the best shows on the air. I remember watching it intitially just to watch, found it to be a chore, and little by little, it became awesome. Almost on BSG levels of quality. It'd be a real shame to lose that momentum now. |

Yikes, Josh Friedman doesn't even seem as upset/crazy as that blogger.
Read his post mortem here: http://www.fox.com/blogs/terminator/2009/05/18/one-last-thing-from-josh-friedman/ |

Dollhouse = cheap
Terminator = expensive That's all it came down to in the end. Dollhouse and Chuck both had to take big budget cuts to stay on the air for another season. |

This sucks.
This show and Life were the two best
things on tv and now they are both gone.

Why would anybody boycott any network?
The last season's outrages usually mean something fun in the works. Bank on creativity. I for one was seriously pissed when Smith evaporated. I can't recall to this day which net iced that awesome show. Still: Hey "SyFy"! Come with us if you want to live. |

Normally I don't hold it against other shows when one dies but another lives but between this travesty and my growing irritation with it and
non-derstanding of it's appeal I doubt I'll be back for Dollhouse S2.

I'm still rooting for the Three's Company remake with Cameron, Shirley Manson and John Henry.
Wacky robot misadventures for all! |

I'll miss Savannah the most
well and the hotness of John. |

I'm kind of upset this is gone, but Fox tried... at first. It got the post-Superbowl launch, right? Can't ask for a better premiere than that.
Unfortunately, it was heavy on the brain and light on the bangs which is not what the franchise implied. I still think it would make an AMAZING companion piece
to the similarly themed and toned Caprica.

Eh, I mean, they say they tried, and they did give it a good spot at the beginning, but why this wasn't ALWAYS just paired up with 24 is beyond me.
Didn't they give that slot to Prison Break which was a dying show? They should have shipped that off to Friday and try to build Terminator's audience,
since it was a new show.
They really didn't promote the show enough though, IMO. I don't know if its the actor or network's job to secure stuff like this, but Terminator had a walking talking advertisement in their hot cast. Why weren't they on talk shows, magazines, etc? |

Cleaning out some old videos, I ran across Taryn Southern's "Hott 4 Hill" video. Little Savannah's in it.

That post is useless without pics.
(Anybody have any updates on SyFy's plans?) |

On a side note, Terminator: Salvation is expected to rake in $70 million at the box office this weekend. At least the franchise will live on in movies. |
