Dollhouse is at an interesting stage.  We're deliberately not publishing spoilers about the show because, well, I think it's the job of Joss Whedon, his staff and FOX to tell us - the audience - about the show.

But here's some stuff we can say:

- There's a pilot script.

- Casting is well on it's way.

- Shooting is weeks away.

- Stuart Blatt ("ANGEL") and his workmates are busy designing 'n building The Dollhouse and various other sets.  It's in a great big Fox studio. 

- The show is set in LA.

- Shawna Trpcic ("FIREFLY") is the costume designer. (Thanks, you know who you are)

- Mike Massa ("ANGEL") is the stunt coordinator. (Thanks, Shapenew)

- Much of the old ANGEL team are on board, from writers to crew (Ross Berryman etc).

- A lot of the people who are working on this show have worked on Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Angel or Firefly.  And in many cases, all three.  Although just because there's a bunch of people behind the cameras who have worked on Whedonesque shows before, I wouldn't assume this will extend too far in front of the camera.  Yes, we're looking at you, TV Guide.

- If you've seen the casting sides floating around the 'net (elsewhere), don't presume they're all direct script from the first ep.  They aren't.  No, we aren't publishing anything like that here.

- Dollhouse to be presented to press and advertisers May 15th.  We should find out if Dollhouse is Fall or mid-season then.  Yes, a tentative launch date for your calendar.  Expect a lot of news that week.
