Joss Whedon Picks ‘Terminator’ Over ‘Dollhouse’
Back in May Fox entertainment president Kevin Reilly announced the cancelation of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles by saying that “ultimately we made the bet on Dollhouse for the night…so that’s it for Terminator.”
If only Fox had asked Dollhouse creator Joss Whedon what he thought they should bet on.
Whilst on the red carpet of the Syfy/Entertainment Weekly party at San Diego Comic-Con last month Whedon told Michael Hinman from Airlock Alpha that if it had been up to him he would have picked Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles.
“I am an apocalyptic future nut. I love that stuff,” he said. “I can never get enough of it. If they had put a gun to my head and told me to choose, I would say renew Sarah Connor because I love that show.”
And I thought the news that Whedon might cast Summer Glau in Dollhouse was bittersweet…
Dollhouse returns on Friday September 25.

TOO LITTLE TOO LATE perhaps, Mr Whedon?!
Besides, I don’t want to be unfair with him,’cause I know he’s a great guy on his own,& lots of fans are proud of his ideas & shows…But I can’t exempt me from feeling STILL so sorry about the loss of TSCC!! :’(
Unluckily the last Terminator film didn’t comfort me at all…
I WANT TSCC CAST & STORIES BACK IN WHATEVER FORM…SOON!!!! ;-D)
Fingers crossed out there…bye-bye!

I’ve gotten used to near-constant updates on this site, but it’s been a couple of days since we’ve seen anything new. I’m almost starting to get worried!

Hi Greg, Never fear! I moved house and my ISP got the date wrong to set up my internet connection! Have been waiting to get the internet back, and it’s all go now! It wasn’t so bad though, I finally had a rest imposed on me!
