Stargate: Universe Discussion – “Life”

The crew finds a (plot) device that’s about as likely to get them home as anything Voyager found in the first season. Y’know, the problem with “here’s a way home” in a show where the premise of the show is “you’re a long way from home” is that even though the characters don’t know it won’t work, we know it won’t.

Dollhouse may be shelved during sweeps

What a difference a week makes. Just a few days ago, everyone seemed to think that, thanks to DVRs, Dollhouse was safe, at least for now. Today, the latest rumor is that Dollhouse won’t even air during November sweeps. This is, as they say, a bad sign. (I’ll refrain from making all the “told ya so” jokes about Joss and the Fox network, because I’m sure the rest of you will have much better ones anyway.)
