I really liked Tru Calling. Especially when they brought in Jason Priestly (of all people) as the bad guy. I think Fox dropped the ball on that one. It was bad scheduling. It was on Thursday night against whatever #1 Sitcom NBC was running. Think it was getting interrupted by baseball too. Why Whedon keeps going back to Fox is beyond me. Look at how they bailed on Firefly.

Sorry Eliza Dushku and Joss Whedon fans!

Looks like you might have to wait a bit longer to see their latest collaboration, Dollhouse, on Fox.

Refresher, Dollhouse stars Eliza Dushku as a secret agent of sorts. The agency she works for imprints memories and personalities into its agents, who are then hired out. Though most agents are blissfully unaware of their situation, Eliza's character comes to realize she's a secret agent. The show's totally a hybrid of Alias and Bourne Identity!

Anyway, Whedon, the genius behind Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel, doesn't think the current Dollhouse scripts are good enough, so he's shut down production for now, so he can do some re-writes.

Production is due to start up again in late September, as long as Joss is happy with the scripts!

The good news is that the drama is a midseason entry.

If Dollhouse picks up production again at the end of the month, they'll still be ahead of schedule.
