If Chuck is renewed, I will be ridiculous amounts of happy. I like the movement away from premature cancellation of poor-performing shows, though I'm assuming it closes out the field for a lot of new pilots; at least it's making sure that not only the police, lawyer, and medical shows last past a season. (That being said, if The Unusuals don't make it, I will weep like a small child.)

I've no idea when we'd hear about that, seeing as it's sort of a late season show. I do so hope they give it a chance, maybe try to sell it more, because I think it's the sort of show that people would enjoy if they just try it.
I am cautiously pleased, and frankly surprised! I think Dollhouse has thus far been an interesting failure, but I do want to see how it continues to play out.
Honestly, I think Dollhouse has a lot of problems, but nowhere near as many as rabidly fan-popular shows such as Supernatural. I also think that given Joss' tricky narrative methods, a lot of the squicky things done so far in the show are going to be resolved (sort of a story-telling long con); I like watching Dollhouse because it's one of the few shows that have multiple instances of characters-of-colour and women in speaking, prominent, roles.
I still really have to think my way through Dollhouse. But I'm glad it's going to be around; I would miss a lot of the characters if their stories stopped being told.
I am with you in that my reaction is that I really really don't know what to feel about that. I think I have future feelings! As in, if the show gets awesome, I will have been happy about it being renewed, but if it gets worse, then right now I will be displeased.
In the future, when we have time travel, there will be a tense where the previous sentence made sense.
