Article: www.tvtonight.com.au/2008/09/dollhouse-for-fox8.htmlI've found this kind of annoying. I live in Australia, and have been really looking forward to Dollhouse. But I don't have pay TV, therefore I don't have Fox8. So I guess I won't get to see Dollhouse.

Yeah, I guess so. But it just feels... wrong. Like I'm robbing Joss or something.

I'm upset by this too. I'm going to download it, like I do with most other shows I watch. I'm so impatient and can't stand how the Australian networks don't broadcast the shows at the same time as in the U.S. Some networks are finally starting to catch on and realise that they're loosing viewers because they are going online and watching them before they even get around to broadcasting.
I think the important part is that you still support the series you watch, I buy everything I watch online when it's released on dvd. And the soundtracks also. So I don't feel like I'm cheating the producers or any of the creative team.
But I admit, since this revelation, I am considering getting pay tv, if it turns out they're going to air it soon after the U.S. airing.

Oh that really stinks. Maybe you could buy it on itunes instead of catching it on a website if you feel like you're robbing Joss.

I usually buy DVDs of TV shows I enjoy also. And I'm fairly sure I'll enjoy Dollhouse. So I guess I could watch it online. Plus, television networks really suck these days.

I have pay TV so this isn't really a problem for me, but i do think that it would have been better off on ten. At least it can still be watched online.

If you want to feel like you are helping Joss, you could always buy the episodes online. I am sure that streaming them also helps with the "ratings" system...right??

I'm in the same position. There is no chance Dollhouse will air on a free channel in the UK.

I have pay TV so this isn't really a problem for me, but i do think that it would have been better off on ten. At least it can still be watched online. TEN isn't exactly nice to it's shows though, but at least I would have been able to watch it. It's probably better off on Pay TV. If you want to feel like you are helping Joss, you could always buy the episodes online. I am sure that streaming them also helps with the "ratings" system...right?? I guess I should just watch online in the free way and buy the DVDs. Watching online for free is pain enough without trying to figure out how to pay and find a good site for buying etc. OMG! I just went to ten.com to see if it was on there but it was porn! WOOPS! Forgot to add the .au :S Alexiness, I also live in Australia and I don't have PAyTV either, but I have been so excited to watch this so I am going to do anything and everything that I can to watch Dollhouse. LOL. I'm sure I've done that before, but I don't remember it being porn. Yeah, same here. Alexiness, do you reckon there is a way we could say something to channel ten that we wanna watch dollhouse!?? lol! Channel TEN doesn't exactly seem like the kind of company that would listen. Lol. I don't really trust TEN a lot, let alone think they would care about opinions of a few random people.

Maybe...maybbe...just maybeeee Lol maybe but FOX 8 probably paid more than ten so they'd be able to screen it exclusively but Gossip Girl is on FOX 8 and now win shows it so maybe ten will be able to screen it later, although it'll be a bit of a wait
