Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles and Dollhouse are two Fox SF series that are in danger of cancellation, but the heads of both shows want to make it clear that despite reports to the contrary, neither show is dead yet.
Joss Whedon, speaking at the Paley Festival, told the audience that he’s a little optimistic because the network bosses love the show and will be looking at the full picture — including iTunes purchases, DVR playback, etc. where the show does better — before coming to a conclusion.
In related news, speaking about the drama surrounding the 13th episode, Joss told Zap2It that Fox may end up airing it after all:
“I’ve been in contact with the network and the studio making a great big push for them to [air that last hour],” Joss said. “The problem isn’t just with the network though, the studio also looks at it and goes, DVD goodness! So, [my goal] is getting them both excited about putting it on the air. They’re looking in to it, I haven’t gotten an answer yet, but I know that they are honestly discussing it, the same way they are obviously discussing a second season. They have to weigh in all the factors. I know I’m being dealt with in a reasonable fashion, so whatever the outcome, I’ll know I pushed as hard as I could and they did what they could. I have hope [it’ll work out].”
