Fox’s FRINGE
Ok, so this seasons big show was supposed to be FRINGE. Created by JJ Abrams the show was supposed to be really cool along the lines of LOST. I’ve watched all 3 episodes so far and I have to say, I’m not impressed. The show is a blatant X-Files rip-off. The shows music sounds very similar to LOST. I think the worst part of this show is the female lead role. FBI Agent Olivia Dunham is DULL!!! The second bad thing is that the things happening on the show are beyond believability! So it makes it hard to watch, especially when they solve these massively insane cases that would probably take scientists years to figure out.
The BEST part of the show is Fox’s “Remote-Free TV”. Episodes of Fringe are longer than standard dramas on TV. It airs with half the commercials and promo spots, adding about 6 minutes to the shows’ run time. THAT is a GREAT idea! It kept me tuned to the station. I didn’t channel surf and I actually watched the ads!!!! I NEVER watch ads!! So there you go! Advertisers, listen up!

Agreed, but you must understand that laziness in mass media art is common place. So with making movies they do the same, they quickly make a sequel, or 3quel, forkquil, wut hav U, and blamo! It sucks like a vacuum on speedball. Some movies they work hard on like the muppets but they fail to mention a sorcerer who was needed to bring them to life to create believability.
