NEW YORK - The TV fantasy drama "Dollhouse" has been cancelled.
The show ends after its current 13-episode order, with the series finale scheduled to air Jan. 22, according to a person familiar with the show who spoke on the condition of anonymity because he wasn't authorized to discuss it.
"Dollhouse" is about a high-tech escort service, with Eliza Dushku starring as an escort who can be implanted with different personalities to accommodate each client.
Created by Joss Whedon, best known for "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," the series arrived last February with great fanfare, but struggled to find an audience. Its cancellation was first reported Wednesday by the Hollywood Reporter.
