Bad news for all of you rabid Joss Whedon cult fans: Fox is pulling the plug on the creator’s new show, Dollhouse. The news comes after the network announced it wouldn’t air the show during the important November sweeps period. The show, a science-fiction program starring Eliza Dushku, barely got picked up for a second season because of its poor ratings, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The series is currently filming its 11th episode, the trade reports, but no word yet on whether the remaining episodes will air, as previously scheduled, in December. (The Hollywood Reporter)
