Dabei ist wichtig, das der Kontext folgender ist:

Dollhouse hasn’t even begun airing and, despite the fact that FOX have made a thirteen episode commitment to the series, just about every bit of press relating to the show is talking about the fact that fans (of a show that hasn’t aired yet?) are campaigning to save it. I fail to see — which probably makes this all my own fault — how Dollhouse will manage to reach a larger audience when all the noise being made about it revolves around its imminent demise.

Am I saying that people with faith (sorry) in this series shouldn’t get behind it? Hell no! But I do believe that there’s a real danger that this sort of campaign could become the harbinger of doom, a self-fulfilling prophecy of sorts. The people behind these Save Dollhouse campaigns need to tread very carefully and choose their battles (and wording) with caution. Don’t think for a minute that I don’t admire their passion either! I’m just concerned that they may be doing more harm than good.

Ich mag es sehr, wenn die Leute anfangen so cool den Begriff "Save Dollhouse" umzudeuten. Weg vom Verhindern einer Absetzung, hin zu Werbung für Zuschauer. Auch wenn das dollhouseforums (von denen die Geschichte auch ausging, glaub ich) auch so formuliert in Antwort auf die Kritiken an der Negativität:

We are NOT a campaign to save Dollhouse, we are just fans who are dedicated to promoting it as much as possible before it airs. Joss Whedon already has a loyal fanbase -- something that new shows with burgeoning creators don't initially have. Why not use it to our advantage and band together?

Schon klar. Aber dann muss deutlicher gemacht werden, was unter "Save Dollhouse" gemeint ist. Der erste Schuss ging etwas daneben.

dollhouseforums schrie zuerst auf:

We have been in contact with FOX about holding special Question & Answer sessions and they have stated that they would LOVE to hold interviews with the fans at Dollhouse Forums. We do not know all of the specific details yet, but YAY!

Right now they have stated, "...we are holding off on most cast interviews until we are back up and running and have several episodes filmed. I am going to put you on the top of our waiting list for cast interviews, and will be happy to facilitate this several months from now… probably towards the end of August."

dollhousetvforum meinte kurz darauf:

We will be holding something similar to that at around that time also.

I received an email by one of the cast saying that they have all been asked to keep quiet for the time being.

Das ganze hat also keine Exklusivitäts-Relevanz, sondern zeigt nur: Fox lässt die Marketing-Phase "Cast-Promo" Ende August starten. Die beiden Foren, von denen es mich immer noch wundert, warum sie nicht mehr zusammenarbeiten (was ich denke ist: "fusionieren"), werden weder irgendwas besonderes, exklusives erhalten, noch werden sie vermutlich sehr hoch in der Warteliste bei Fox stehen. Aber sie sind dabei. Und wir dadurch auch.

Warum da Buffyverse-Menschen herumstehen, ist noch nicht ganz geklärt.
