I heard 'The Expanse' was not taken into the next season. Way better than star trek.

i liked Dollhouse a lot... that was only two seasons? it seems like more, but maybe that's because the finale did bring a kind of resolution

You do know that the whole premise of "Dollhouse" was ripped off from a kids' TV show from the 1970s: Gerry Anderson's "Joe 90"?

Not entirely. The Dollhouse purposes are a bit more nefarious than 'Joe90.' And much more apocalyptic.
