'Sarah Connor Chronicles' will not be back

Sources confirm that not only has FOX officially passed on renewing Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, it’s even dead as far as Warner Brothers is concerned and they are no longer shopping it to other networks.

While this is hardly a surprise and some web sites have been reporting this cancellation for literally months now, given FOX’s surprise (to us and pretty much everyone but Joss Whedon’s Biggest Fan) renewal of Dollhouse on Friday, some might have still been hopeful.

I’m sure the fandoms will be in a tizzy over this, especially with the Dollhouse renewal, but it is what it is. By the way, the notion from some of the fans that we were ever out to get TSCC or Dollhouse, or any other show (OK, Bill might have it in for CW’s Privileged, but that’s another story) was always ludicrous. We thought it would be canceled, and it was, but we thought Dollhouse would be canceled and it wasn’t. And we’re not at all unhappy Dollhouse will be back. Confused perhaps, but not unhappy. We’d have been thrilled if TSCC pulled off the miracle too. But it didn’t.

That's all folks. I had a feeling this would be the result. Especially after reading the news on Dollhouse earlier this week.

I knew only one show would survive FOX's budget cuts (and since Joss Whedon proved he could do it with less money he won).

Despite knowing all that I was still holding on to the very slim hope that FOX would change it's mind.

But instead they once again proved that they don't know what to do with a good show when they have it.

Figures just when the show gets really good, it gets the axe and my bad luck with shows I love continues *sigh*. It was great while it lasted. Thank goodness for fan fiction and dvds!.

I think Summer Glau should knock on Mr. Whedon's door and get herself a part in his show, and while we are at it maybe he could give Lena Heady one too.
