I think that the continued lease on life given to underperformers like THE OFFICE (in its first season)and CHUCK (and the resurrections of FAMILY GUY and FUTURAMA) shows that there are some executives who can take a chance on quality programming that they think is likely to succeed on DVD; that's probably where more predictable money will be coming from in the near future anyway. @Wesley Smith – I think there’s an element of truth to what you’re saying, but right now broadcast TV is a crapshoot.

Terminator lasted two seasons. Dollhouse has gone at least a season and a a half. Would either of these shows gotten past the pilot stage anywhere else?

I'm really not surprised that FOX is doing this - airing reruns of highly-rated House will bring them more ratings during sweeps than any stunt on Dollhouse will, and ultimately (especially in smaller markets) the ratings during sweeps are the only thing that matters... 2) It's HijinksEnsue, not HijinksEnsure. Just a little slip there! 1.

No wonder it's ratings are slipping. I only get to watch it on Hulu these days. Out here Dollhouse is up against SGU, Sanctuary, Monk, Psych, and ton of other good shows Friday nights.
