Likes to mess with stuffs.


Joss posted a message on Whedonesque on the Dollhouse scheduling fiasco. Here is what he had to say.

Quote:


Hi guys. Lot going on.

First off, TV addict not dumb. (But you gotta get clean, man. We love you and you HAVE A PROBLEM. I'm just saying, try a book. A book about TV! Not cold turkey.)

Directing Glee. This is not a diabolical Fox scheme. This is me going "can I can I?" Did you see last night? Best cut-to-opening-credits moment since the halcyon days of BSG.

Howzabout that schedule? Well, I'm not as depressed as everyone else. We weren't about to rock sweeps anyway, and though there's a chilly November, December is CRAZY. It's like an Advent calendar of episodes! We get November to try to spread the word (which I'll be leaning on Fox to do, though it's hard to imagine them doing as good a job as the WhyIWatch guy) and then December is pure gluttony. Plus the episodes line up extremely well in these pairs, and we'll have an absurdly appropriate lead-in.

Back to breaking Tim's episode. Keep the faith, peeps. I'll bring you news (and hopefully a little humor, I mean would it kill me to punch these up a little?) when I can. -j

Maybe this is a hint that he's going to kill Echo and start a Faith series instead.

I guess that's hope not faith. bah

This is good to hear. My first reaction after hearing this news was "angry-fan-finds-out-his-show's-been-killed", but the way Joss makes this sound is comforting actually (not completely comforting but enough). Also I never thought of the episodes being pushed back as a better opportunity to get the word out and promote the show.
