Joss Whedon is filming a new pilot for Dollhouse, with the original pilot now the second episode. He explains, in amusing fashion, why this is allegedly not the usual well-trodden road to cancellation here.

There's a promo for the Battlestar Galactica spin-off/prequel/barely related cash-in here. It doesn't look terrible. It confuses me becase

It doesn't look terrible.

It's a bit too early to be drunk, Iain. Perhaps you have fallen and hit your head?

I said "it doesn't look terrible", not "it looks good".

I suspect that we'll see the secret history of the human Cylons in parallel with the not-so-secret history of the metal ones. My prediction: when the ratings drop off or they run out of ideas in the second season it will unexpectedly fast-forward to the First Cylon War.

I really, really hate all of the Adama stuff in the prequel. Why do any of the people in the prequels have to be related to any of the people in the original series?

On the other hand, a wise man once said "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss."

Quite honestly, I'm beginning to think everyone (Joss, fans, etc.) should shut the hell up about Dollhouse until they've got a season in the can and have started airing it. All else is noise.

Until it enters, ooh, let's say its third year, I shall be less than convinced that Dollhouse has a long term future.
