Joss Whedon fans have already organized a campaign to stop his new show, Dollhouse, from being cancelled, even though the first episode won't air for another eight months. Whedonistas have witnessed so many kick-ass TV shows cancelled by callous goons from teeveeland, they're girding their loins for the inevitable fight and not waiting around for the disappointment before working up a good head of bitter outrage. Good on 'em! Preemptive strikes are just defense as practiced by precogs

A Facebook fan page dedicated to the online campaign already has nearly 1,500 members.
anyone think this could backfire?

I don't know about backfire.
But I'm definitely puzzled. Pre-emptive outrage?
If outrage is a genuine, powerful feeling, mustn't there be an event to evoke that feeling first?

yes, there should be a real reason for real outrage, but what does reason have to do with fans, which as we know is short for "fanatics".

If they put in a time slot next to a hit show it may become a hit in it's own rite.

Exactly.
Lets hope for the same results as Sarah Connor Chronicles.

That's the same time slot where DRIVE crashed and burned.

Yeah, but that's because Drive was basically unwatchable, pardon me for saying so. I like Nathan Fillion (I even liked him in White Noise 2), but that damn show just plain sucked.
And I still watched every episode they aired, just to show support for our Cap'n.
