Closing Shop on the Dolls

Fox giveth, Fox taketh (be warned, Fringe!).

The network has pulled the plug on its sophomore drama Dollhouse, meaning it will not be ordering more of Joss Whedon’s low-rated drama starring Eliza Dushku beyond the current 13-episode order.

At least Fox plans to air those episodes once the show comes back after November sweeps.

“I don’t have a lot to say. I’m extremely proud of the people I’ve worked with: my star, my staff, my cast, my crew. I feel the show is getting better pretty much every week, and I think you’ll agree in the coming months,” Whedon said in a statement. “I’m grateful that we got to put it on, and then come back and put it on again.”

Sad now.
