In an underdog comeback that blows away NBC’s will-they-or-won’t-they hand-wringing over “Chuck” (psst, they almost certainly will), sources say Fox is -- and this could change before Monday's upfront presentation -- leaning toward bringing back Joss Whedon’s “Dollhouse” next fall.

Don't jinx it.

(Much as I love Dollhouse. . . I can't see it getting renewed. It's a complicated, intelligent, sci-fi drama on Fox.)

I'm glad for Mr. Wheedon,
but it's not enough for me.
I'll reserve my exaltation,
till the II of Serenity.

Even the guy in that article can't explain why they might renew it though. My theory is they just don't want another Firefly on their hands.

They renewed it? Yay! That finale was too good to just leave us hanging. Also, I don't know if Summer had any other plans after TSCC... Where/when did you find out about this?

I'm really glad that Dollhouse is getting another season, but I hope our friends at Fox will finally get it and leave Joss alone.

Let him do his magic. Everyone says that the second half of the season was much stronger than the first half. The traditional way to crunch the numbers is a thing of the past, and Dollhouse would often get more hits online than any other freshman drama.

a 40% boost, to be exact.

Here's another little tidbit: Firefly/Serenity is number 1 episode in Hulu's Highest rated episodes.
It holds 7 of the Top 20 spots in that same category.

I'm just sayin'
