Hello everyone.
Since the ratings for our show aren't really that great and this might pose a problem (please read) rather soon, we seriously need to gear up!
There is no guarantee that calling and mailing them is going to do anything good, albeit we did a great job at it to get a second season in the first place. It would do much better if the ratings for the next episode actually would improve, don't you think?
Here is our proposal for a plan: WATCH DOLLHOUSE ON FRIDAY, GET YOUR FRIENDS TO WATCH DOLLHOUSE ON FRIDAY, DVR IT IF YOU CAN'T WATCH IT, BUY IT ON ITUNES AND REWATCH IT ON HULU!
WATCH IT IF YOU'RE A NIELSEN HOUSEHOLD OTHERWISE DVR/TIVO DOLLHOUSE ON FRIDAY AND REWATCH IT ON HULU.COM OR FOX ON DEMAND THE DAY AFTER. BUY IT ON ITUNES AND REWATCH IT AGAIN ON HULU!
...
As you see this is only the very basic of the plan, as the big part really is to get more people that normal to tune it and DVR it. How can you do that, you wonder. Simple: LET EVERYONE KNOW ABOUT DOLLHOUSE, WHEN IT AIRS AND WHY THEY SHOULD WATCH/Tivo/DVR it! After all some of us did write and call for Chuck and The Sarah Connor Chronicles to get renewed. And the year before it was the other show we called for. It's time you cash in that favor your friends owe you!
This is where the fandom comes in: Create banners, buttons or whatever you're good at. Share them with us and post to your journal. In other words benefit from the creativity of the fandom and GET THE WORD OUT! Tweet about it, write about it on LJ and Facebook, declare your love for Dollhouse on MySpace, Orkut and DigIt, Stumpleupon it and Delicious it too!
...
As you can see, this way you can make icons on Monday, write a story on Tuesday, create a wallpaper on Wednesday, write thought-provoking character studies on Thursday and do a massive pic-spam on Friday! (Or whatever it is you like to do really!)
So get ready to spam your friends on every social networking platform you have an account on, call your parents to let them know what they're doing Friday night and email your friends that you'll gladly take care for their cats and flowers when they go on holiday if they watch/tivo Dollhouse this Friday! (And if not asked to much the rest of the season too!) Lend them your S1 DVDs if they want to catch up quickly or link them to hulu, iTunes or Amazon.
GO TEAM DOLLHOUSE!

Dollhouse fans aren't blind. We know ratings for Dollhouse are very bad and the chances for renewal are very slim. Even though season 2 has just premiered, the campaign to save Dollhouse has already begun. Do your part to help save our show. Every little bit helps!
