An announcement came yesterday that soon, the television universe will be put back in proper alignment: Joss Whedon has a new show on the way. You can read more thorough details in the link, but the bottom line is that he's creating and writing a new series starring Eliza Dushku -- Dollhouse. And I'm frakkin' ecstatic.
And nervous.
Because the show is going to be on FOX. And despite the fact that Joss roundaboutly mentions the criminally quick cancellation of Firefly in the above interview, and tries to offer reassurances, that's not changing my nervousness. There may be a "new bunch of people" at FOX, but they're the people that canceled Drive after three weeks, yet gave a full season order to the painfully formulaic and unfunny Back to You.
So, I'm hoping that the ratings are phenomenal, or that FOX stops for a moment to reflect on how crazy-ridiculous the Firefly DVDs sold month after month on Amazon. No itchy trigger fingers this time, please.
Bring on the Dollhouse!

Yay! I will go post about this too to spread the word. Yay!
Joss Whedon is a puppy, and FOX is an abusive master.
