TV Guide lists Dollhouse as one of "Seven Endangered Series We Hope Will Survive". They argue Dollhouse deserves to be saved because "the premise, though ethically problematic, is hella compelling". Spoilers if you haven't seen the Chuck finale.

Also, The One True b!X notes that you can reply to TVGuide's twitter saying which show you want to be saved.

And on Twitter they ask what shows you would save. Hint: Tweet them "I'd renew Dollhouse" and since it's still Watch DOLLHOUSE Week add the #watchdollhouse hashtag while you're at it.

Dollhouse and Life. Yes, I am obsessed with both of them. They need to be saved.

The Unusuals. Enjoyed it so far, but I don't think it would mean that much to me if it got canned.

Chuck. Stopped watching this season, because...uh...yeah, no idea. It deserves to be back, even though I probably won't watch any more of it.
I'm actually enjoying The Unusuals a lot and am sad that it likely won't continue, along with half of the other shows I watch. I'm glad it was posted here or I never would have watched.
Think the spoiler tag should be added here, I came VERY close to reading the information on Chuck's finale which I haven't seen yet!
Oops, sorry about that ChromeShark. Looks like a mod added a note.
"ethically problematic"?

I'd prefer to call it "ethically compelling", or "ethically dense"

I guess it's "problematic" if you don't like to explore ethics in a thoughtful way.
I think that's why "ethically problematic" works. There haven't been too many shows that have based their entire world in an ethically questionable setting. At least not on network TV. Usually if there's questionable ethics, it's largely restricted to the bad guy.
