There is a bunch of television news going on today, so I thought I’d put together a little round up. After the jump, I have information on ABC’s V being shut down, Brandon Routh joining Chuck, and confirmation and information of Summer Glau in Dollhouse.

The Wrap is reporting that ABC’s alien invasion series V is taking a two-week creative hiatus. A Warner Bros spokesperson says that they want to “take advantage of our November premiere to maximize creative opportunities and deliver the audience the best show possible.” No staffing changes have been made.

Entertainment Weekly reports that Superman himself, Brandon Routh, is joining the geek friendly tv show Chuck for a multi-episode arc, begining in the fourth episode of this season. Apparently Routh will play a mysterious new spy named Shaw who (possible spoilers) “takes control as the new leader of Operation Bartwoski, becoming a mentor to Chuck and a rival in his affections for Sarah.”

And lastly, The Hollywood Reporter confirms that Summer Glau (Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles) will be reuniting with her Firefly writer/director  Joss Whedon on Fox’s Dollhouse. Not much is known about her character Bennett, other than it is a reoccurring role, and that she will play “a Dollhouse employee who shares a secret past with Eliza Dushku’s Echo.”

    I like the idea of Brandon Routh on Chuck, but couldn't they come up with a more original character for him to play? A mentor who's also a rival? "Shaw" sounds like Bryce Larkin AND Cole Barker.

    They need to always find something to keep Sarah away from Chuck. The" Do they or don't they" thing is getting old but so are the Buy More scenes as well.

    Dollhouse is a ok series, just TV no big deal
    You americans made a big deal of Lost a good premise for 2 season and a silly one in the last 3 at the point of travel thru time just with fading to white back and foward, no profesional brains there.
    Dollhouse is fun stuff with Olivia Williams the only reason that made believable all The Sixth Sense ten years ago (she was always alone!!!!!!!!!!!!!).
    Dame you (north) americansssss!!!!!!!!!!!!
    We all lovers of the 2 first season of Lost still need an explanation of the unforgiven flash fowards.
  • Haha. It just hit me how much actors are like the dolls...

    Which would make Joss Whedon that anal bitch with the serious vitamin b deficiency
  • BetterThanYou
    Too bad someone as talented (and good looking) as her has to join a shit-tacular series.

    Help TV suck less. Bring back The Sarah Connor Chronicles.
  • frelling_cute
    I thought TSCC was really crappy too. So much potential and they squandered it.
  • How would bringing back that incredibly retarded TV show make TV suck less?

    So we got old news about Summer Glau, and non-news about a V stoppage that will apparently affect nothing, and nonentity news about Mr. Dean Cain Jr.

    Isn't this why Page 2 was created?

    Summer Glau <3
  • Like every aspect of Firely, I want more River.

    Even if it has to be in a shitty show like Dollhouse.
  • Did you happen to watch the second half of the season and Epitaph?
  • Not Epitaph. Explain to me how the second half makes it not a shitty show.
