I thought it was April Fool’s Day when I saw the news circulating that Dollhouse had been picked up for a second season.  Earlier today, Matt Mitovich at TVGuide and Michael Ausiello over at EW were reporting that it was looking good but that we’d all have to wait until Monday for the official announcement.
A few hours later and James Hibberd (one of my favorite sources) is saying it’s for sure. His post is titled Surprise: Fox RENEWS Dollhouse.
Surprise doesn’t begin to cover it. Here’s what Hibberd had to say:

**It’s now official!!!**
A number of sources are reporting that The CW started their day making phone calls to discuss renewals with the executives of their top shows. Supernatural and Smallville both made the cut, one more expected than the other.
Smallville nearly went away last year but a major turn around in the story line has breathed new life into the waning series.  But would Tom Welling sign on for yet another year as the boy-turned-man of steel? The answer appears to be yes, though I imagine his contract came with a very large number in the salary space.
