Dollhouse's Season 2 Premiere: Good News, Disappointing News

The Season 2 premiere of Fox's Dollhouse will be written and directed by the man himself: series creator Joss Whedon. The catch: You're going to have to wait an extra week to see it.

Fox has pushed back Dollhouse's return date to Friday, Sept. 25, to afford Whedon & Co. sufficient time to produce enough hours to kick off the season with at least three or four consecutive episodes.

An encore of the series premiere of Glee (yes, it's an all-new episode) will now air in Dollhouse's original return slot of Friday, Sept. 18 at 9 pm/ET.

Dollhouse stars Eliza Dushku as Echo, a woman whose personality has been erased. An illegal, oftentimes amoral underground operation imprints Echo with custom personalities specific to the needs of its high-paying clientele.

Season 1 of Dollhouse arrives on DVD July 28 for regular folk, but is available six days earlier in a special, limited-supply Comic-Con edition (to be picked up in person at the San Diego event).
