Damn. I wasn't absolutely sure on Prisoner as it just seems to go on forever. And ever. And ever.
The money was too good. I got stupid.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
And The Office has 13 too, if you count the Christmas special.

They could package Journeyman and Daybreak together in a DVD boxed set. I'd definitely buy that. (Yes, I know different companies probably own the shows, and other than Moon Bloodgood and a time travel conceit, they have little in common, but they were still both great shows that got progressively better, and were canceled before their time. And, ironically, neither aired on FOX.)

IMDB says:
Fox TV and the CW networks announced Tuesday that they have decided not to produce pilots of many proposed television programs under consideration. They also said that, as an additional cost-cutting measure, they would abandon numerous projects that had been in development.
If Dollhouse is a goner then that'll set some kind of record.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
20th made Journeyman. That one will probably happen. Touchstone made Day Break and wow did I hate that show.

I love the fearmongering about Dollhouse. Silly.

Tamara - "Day Break" got a lot better as the show went on. The final eps were pretty good.

I don't think it's entirely silly, T. It's $1m an ep more expensive than Firefly. It was supposed to be a Fall show, but if the strike continues it won't meet that timeframe. It's with a network which spent $10m or so on Firefly's pilot, then threatened not to continue with the project, then refused to air the pilot first.

Art Crawl!!!
I enjoyed Daybreak.
ETA: Kidnapped - like Journeyman on NBC - didn't get much of a chance and did get a dvd release.
I don't know what company produced Kidnapped.

le nubian, I'll have to take your word for it. I didn't make it past the second episode.
Kevin, we know the cost per ep on Dollhouse? Really? Isn't any estimates on that premature?
I would like to think that Fox learned its lesson about Firefly, but I guess I could be wrong.
