I'm wondering if all my power to jinx the prospects of quirky shows I enjoy got sucked away by watching the premiere of Viva Laughlin

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
"In fact, "Dollhouse" might very well be the lowest-rated in-season scripted drama to ever get a renewal on a major broadcast network."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
ABC also picked up Happy Town, with Amy Acker. What does that mean for Dr. Saunders? Given that she's one of the characters I actually want to see more of in a second season!

If she's a series regular, it means she is out of Dollhouse. Dollhouse has had it's budget cut significantly, so I'm not sure if all the cast will return. They could do a Veronica-Mars style revolving door of cast per episode, I suppose.

That's what I was afraid of.
Although I have no idea what Veronica Mars has to do with a revolving door of cast per episode, as that show had just as much of a core cast as Dollhouse.

I mean... Did they have the model of 'Cast member in an episode, cast member gone for a few episodes, cast member back'? To save cost I seem to recall.

Ah, you mean season three. Yeah, Wallace and Mac weren't used a lot in the first half of the season...because they were supposed to figure prominently in the final mystery of the season...which didn't happen because the network cut the episode order down. Everybody loses!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I guess they could just program Dr. Saunders personality onto somebody like Summer Glau now that she's out of work.
Though I'd rather have Amy.
Heh. Actually the Jossian repertory actor I could actually see in that role is SMG.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
What's J August doing these days? They should totally cancel Raising The Bar and free him up. Surely the Dollhouse needs legal representation.
