josswhedonisgodJust a bit of an update for you all. Fox "officially" confirmed the second season of Dollhouse and Joss has promised that it will be less Murder She Was Imprinted to Write and more the man behind the curtain.
They've accepted substantial budget cuts, however Joss is confident that like the budget cuts for Angel Season 5, these will not be noticiable to viewers. You can read Joss's interview about the renewal here
One of the interesting aspects is that Dollhouse was one of the lower rated shows on Fox, and yet it still got a second season, and apparently got a lot of coverage at Fox's presentation.
"This is Joss Whedon," says Reilly. "You look at profile of show, unbelievably loyal fan base, its consistentency in live ratings and you're placing a bet Joss will keep it going next year. The DVR numbers are a marker and it is a factor. We did see an uptick in ratings. We [went from a]1.5 to a 2 in the DVR plus 7 numbers. That was a pattern we liked."
