Joss Whedon closing the Dollhouse story for good. 'I wish I had figured some things out a little earlier.'

Joss Whedon is closing the Dollhouse story for good. In an interview with Comic Book Resources, Whedon acknowledged the show could have used more work, but he doesn't regret how it turned out.

From the interview: "The only regrets I have about it are the things I didn't do right. 26 hours of television is a lot of time to tell story, and everybody involved was great. I just look back and go, 'I wish I had figured some things out a little earlier.' But that's all the time I have for regret. It is what it is."
In reference to the the possibility of a Dollhouse comic:
"I don't think it's a comic. It's a TV show...apparently not a Fox show, but it is a TV show. There are themes in it and ideas that could work in a comic, but for me to spend the amount of time it would take keeping the comic true to what's already out there when I'm already doing that with 'Buffy' would be a ridiculous waste of my time. And ultimately that would net me a piece of something that belongs to Fox. It just makes no sense to do a comic with 'Dollhouse.' I don't get it, and I'm not sure I'd read it."

It was a good run for Dollhouse; well, at least the best run Fox would have given it. Hopefully Joss goes to a different network next time.
