What's the verdict on "Fringe"?


NOPE. Fucking unwatchable, it's so bad.

Man, I wonder what Mulholland Drive would have been like as a television program. I always wonder what parts of that film had been filmed with the intention of being part of a pilot, because I can't imagine showing any of those scenes on network television.

The world just isn't ready for the Man Behind Winkie's. And honestly, neither am I, no matter how many times I see it. That scene fills me with more legitimate dread and terror than anything I've ever seen, and that includes Large Marge.

I will be forever scarred by that fucking monster.

And the problem with Fringe, for me, is that the acting is SO BAD.

Lynch has a way with terror where sometimes you've been looking at something mind ending for a couple of seconds without evening realizing it. So you get freaked from realizing how terrifying it is and then the retroactive chills come on top of the terror from realizing you couldn't place the terrifying thing right from the start. He just creates horrifying images and scenes that your brain can't register right away, which is a scary feeling on its own. Know what I mean?

Friendly D you are so right on with the Deb thing. It is really frustrating because I face that shit in my actual life on a daily basis (I work in IT) and it is really hard to explain to someone who does not face the same issues. It is really tiring to have to prove you can be "one of the guys" all the time. I have to work so much harder to get the recognition and respect I deserve. So it is reassuring to see you say this because a lot of times people just think you are some crazy whiny chick for bringing attention to it.

I don't watch TV to be talked down to. That being said, I did like Dexter for a while for the mindless entertainment value but it has become so over the top ridiculous that it needs to end. They should have ended it before the season that just aired. There is no way the cops would not have Dr. Garbanzoured out who he is yet.

Out of my deep love for Sherlock Holmes I was obsessed with House when it first came out. I haven't seen anything past the season 6 "Asylum" episode, but everything before that worked quite well for me. House is easily the best and most entertaining Sherlock based character.

I agree with pretty much everyone else in here about the best shows (breaking bad, mad men, wire, AD, community, parks and rec) but I've had shitty luck with new shows this year. My three favorite new shows were Louie, Rubicon, and Terriers. Unfortunately 2/3 of them were canceled already.

all of those shows have been dead for years. As much as i enjoyed Arrested Development, Carnivale and even Wonderfuls (fuck it - My So-Called Life and even Brimstone) it's time to move on.

Television is a cruel business. If people aren't watching those shows, they will go away. IF you want them to stay on - watch them! All of those shows went away because of poor ratings.

So please, stop watching bullshit programming like Big Brother, Dancing with the Stars, American Idol and Survivor. They offer nothing except 'and we'll tell you... after the break'

It's Always Sunny is really funny but can be way too indulgent for me. Some episodes I'm just bored by the schtick and nothing is happening.

I have a guilty love of Modern Family. And a not guilty love of 30 Rock.

And cbat, was Louie cancelled? Or is that the one that stayed alive? I loved it, but I don't think it'll survive. It's so dark.
