I’m sure everyone’s already heard that Fox put a stopper in the 13th episode of Dollhouse this season, which created kind of a panic that the show wouldn’t be picked up again. But series creator Joss Whedon has “Hope” at PaleyFest 09:
“So right now I’ve gone from a sort of place of ‘You don’t even care, nobody loves me’ [laughs] to a place of God, I can’t believe I’m saying this … hope.
“We might actually get the chance to do what we’re dying to do, which is tell more of these stories with these crazy people because we have so many more yet to come,” Whedon said of the series in which Eliza Dushku (“Buffy”) plays an “active” whose memory is wiped and replaced to suit various “engagements.”
“Basically it’s what happens in the next few weeks; we have a new lead-in (replacing ‘Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles’), we have a few more episodes coming up — whether it’s 12 or 13 — they are fierce,” he added. “They are ridiculous; I am so proud of them. We’re going to go out this season with a bang, and hopefully we’ll get to come back for Season 2.”
Whedon said Episode 13, which Fox has said will not air and instead be included on the DVD, was “made on the cheap” and is a “strange and to me extraordinarily lovely episode and they weren’t necessarily going to air it and Fox studios was kind of going, ‘This is DVD extras. … We’ll sell all the DVDs [mock laughter].’ And I’ve been saying that I want this to air as part of the season. … The jury is out on that.”
