FOX have scheduled “Epitaph One”. They’ve renamed the episode “The Future Project”, the channel and airdate is FOX8 on Tuesday September 1, 2009 at 8.30pm .
They originally said they were not going to air the episode as it was “set in the future” and it was a “DVD extra”.
They now say: “Due to the series’ popularity amongst Australian viewers, FOX8 decided to air a special screening of DOLLHOUSE “The Future Project”, which was previously only available to watch on the DOLLHOUSE Series One DVD as Episode 13, called “Epitaph One”.”
This is technically incorrect, as international networks should have episode 13 as part of their licensing agreement — the whole point of the episode was to satisify those agreements, after all. But whatever. “The Future Project”, here we come.
Dollverse would appeal to all international networks to check in with 20th Century Fox, as you should have the rights to air that episode already. And if you’re concerned about the episode being set in the future: so are parts of the second series.
Plus, it’s frickin’ awesome.

Fox8 is just trying to not be outdone by the UK network that's airing the entire season… PLUS, they knew after the screening of Briar Rose that they'd have a riot on their hands if they didn't show Epitaph One…
Stupid of them to rename it though…
Well my Foxtel IQ2 recorded every episode of Dollhouse (which i love), and i noticed that they advertised Epitaph One as ‘The Future Project’, though my IQ has recorded the episode as being called ‘Epitaph One’.
