It seems hope is not yet lost.
Dollhouse renewal talks are ongoing. That Fox didn’t simply slam the door is better news than I expected.
The DVR numbers are encouraging, and DVD pre-orders are already setting a startling pace. The Stability Index Rating is one of the highest in network TV today. Plus, the show is cheaper to produce than many of the others (and the licensing fee goes to a sister company in 20th Century Fox).
Fox has picked up Human Target, and pairing Dollhouse with this on Monday nights could lift the show out of the ratings doldrums inherent in a Friday night time slot. Reports suggest that this idea is being kicked around the table.
I’m not uncrossing my fingers yet or anything… but I feel like there’s more hope than there was.

We have all of the episodes on the DVR and somehow can’t make ourselves get into it… I take it we should?

Absolutely; the first half of the season was a little aimless, but from episode 6 onward it just went from strength to strength, ending with at least a strength of Advanced Maximum Awesome Legendary Plus.
Advanced Maximum Awesome Legendary Plus?
Sold.
@f.B
Might be higher, but at the very least it made it to that level.
