Re: [scifinoir2] Fringe Is Becoming the Show Lost Wishes It Could be
Justin, all the great talent in the world doesn't matter if the captain walks away from the tiller. You mentioned the great talents A___s had on Lost, and yet the show still got, if you'll pardon the unintentional pun, lost. On Sun, May 16, 2010 at 10:05 PM, Justin Mohareb justinmoha...@gmail.comwrote: What's amusing is how narrow minded and disrespectful it is of the people who work on the show. A tv show is a lot more of a team effort than a film can be. Hell, the massively talented writers room on Lost alone is great, much less the great guidance given by Damon Lindelof (with the show since the beginning) and Carlton Cuse (with it since season one). But, you know, it's not surprising to hear that opinion.

When the first season of Lost aired I thought that it was the coolest thing on tv ever, but they couldn't out do what they did in the first season. I didn't even mind that there were polar bears on a tropical island.

Re: [scifinoir2] Fringe Is Becoming the Show Lost Wishes It Could be
What's amusing is how narrow minded and disrespectful it is of the people who work on the show. A tv show is a lot more of a team effort than a film can be. Hell, the massively talented writers room on Lost alone is great, much less the great guidance given by Damon Lindelof (with the show since the beginning) and Carlton Cuse (with it since season one). But, you know, it's not surprising to hear that opinion.

Re: [scifinoir2] Fringe
Watching that episode prompted me to finally watch Inglorious Bastards last night. Not the best movie. I think the biggest complaints I have heard about the film was the pacing. My biggest complaint was the incomplete storyline and that there wasn't much historical facts to what happened. A nice revenge fantasy but that's about it.

[scifinoir2] Fringe: It's Walter vs. William in the finale!
Fringe: It's Walter vs. William in the finale! - http://ausiellofiles.ew.com/2010/01/25/fringe-season-2-finale-spoilers/ It's the showdown we've been waiting for. Fringe's second-season finale this spring will feature a long-awaited confrontation between weird science partners-turned-frenemies William Bell (Leonard Nimoy) and Walter Bishop (John Noble). William and Walter will finally face off in the finale, confirms consulting producer Akiva Goldsman, who is directing the two-part episode (written by exec producers Jeff Pinkner and J.H. Wyman). These [characters] have so much that they're bringing to bear. And Leonard and John are two fantastic actors. The William/Walter reunion is just one of several mythology-related payoffs Fringe has in store in this season's final episodes. We're going to be looking very closely into Peter's [Joshua Jackson] identity, Walter's choices in the past, and Walter's choices in the future, reveals Goldsman. And by the end of the season, we're all going over to the other side. We're trying to do the last two episodes as a singular event, a little bit more movie-like, elaborates the acclaimed auteur, who won an Oscar for his adaptation of A Beautiful Mind. It's really one big story. We're approaching it like a mini-feature. It'll have a singular narrative drive. But will it have any closure should, heaven forbid, the episode http://ausiellofiles.ew.com/2009/11/09/fringe-exclusive-j-j-abrams-on-ratin gs-and-future/ turn out to be a series finale? Good stories typically have sufficient closure, but also have the promise of continuing - even if you're not watching them continue, he says. So, short of killing somebody - which we're not doing - we're just treating it like the end of a movement, not the end of a symphony.

If the Season 2 premiere numbers are any indication, it might not be. Fringe earned a 4.7 rating/8 share, according to Fast National ratings from Nielsen Media Research, clocking in its worst numbers ... ever. In fact, the lowest Fringe ever reached in overnights was a 5.3/8 it achieved twice: Nov. 11 and Dec. 12. This premiere is 11 percent below that low, and is 20 percent off its series premiere numbers. It's also more than 25 percent off its average audience from last season. It's tough to tell if Fringe can blame its lead-in on this one. The season premiere of Bones with former Angel star David Boreanaz earned a 6.1/10, according to Zap2it, 7 percent above the 5.7/10 the show earned in the half-season after moving to the Thursday slot. However, in the past Fringe has enjoyed lead-ins of both House and American Idol, by far Fox's top-rated shows. Just House, for instance, averaged a 7.9/13 ahead of Fringe, nearly 30 percent more than what Bones mustered up in its season premiere. Fringe also had a tough time keeping up with its competition. A rerun of CSI got a good boost from its Survivor lead-in to finish 800,000 viewers ahead of Fringe. However, the J.J. Abrams show beat out Community on NBC although The Office had 100,000 more viewers in the first half hour, according to Zap2it. The new The CW show Vampire Diaries took a bit of an expected tumble in its second week, earning a 2.5/4, losing 19 percent of its premiere audience but still remaining the network's top-rated show. Supernatural, however, remained stable for the most part, losing 9.5 percent of its premiere audience with a 1.9/3. Supernatural also closed the gap a bit between the two shows, from a 47.6 percent difference in its first week to a 31.6 percent audience difference this past week. Supernatural currently has a Stability Index Rating of 95.2, initially ahead of last year's 86.2 rating, while Vampire Diaries has quickly dropped to 90.3 because of its single-week fall. The Stability Index Rating is a measurement developed and used by the BlipNetwork to try and monitor how much of its original audience a television show is maintaining by comparing its highest overnight rating with its average. Fast Nationals usually provide a snapshot of what Americans are watching by pulling numbers from the top urban markets that includes both live viewing and same-day timeshifted viewing.

If the Season 2 premiere numbers are any indication, it might not be. Fringe[image: http://images.intellitxt.com/ast/adTypes/10358_magglass.gif]http://www.airlockalpha.com/node/6709 earned a 4.7 rating/8 share, according to Fast National ratings from Nielsen Media Research, clocking in its worst numbers ... ever. In fact, the lowest Fringe ever reached in overnights was a 5.3/8 it achieved twice: Nov. 11 and Dec. 12. This premiere is 11 percent below that low, and is 20 percent off its series premiere numbers. It's also more than 25 percent off its average audience from last season. It's tough to tell if Fringe can blame its lead-in on this one. The season premiere of Bones with former Angel star David Boreanaz earned a 6.1/10, according to Zap2it, 7 percent above the 5.7/10 the show earned in the half-season after moving to the Thursday slot. However, in the past Fringe has enjoyed lead-ins of both House and American Idol, by far Fox's top-rated shows. Just House, for instance, averaged a 7.9/13 ahead of Fringe, nearly 30 percent more than what Bones mustered up in its season premiere. Fringe also had a tough time keeping up with its competition. A rerun of CSI got a good boost from its Survivor lead-in to finish 800,000 viewers ahead of Fringe. However, the J.J.

The new The CW show Vampire Diaries[image: http://images.intellitxt.com/ast/adTypes/10358_magglass.gif]http://www.airlockalpha.com/node/6709 took a bit of an expected tumble in its second week, earning a 2.5/4, losing 19 percent of its premiere audience but still remaining the network's top-rated show. Supernatural[image: http://images.intellitxt.com/ast/adTypes/10358_magglass.gif]http://www.airlockalpha.com/node/6709, however, remained stable for the most part, losing 9.5 percent of its premiere audience with a 1.9/3. Supernatural also closed the gap a bit between the two shows, from a 47.6 percent difference in its first week to a 31.6 percent audience difference this past week. Supernatural currently has a Stability Index Rating of 95.2, initially ahead of last year's 86.2 rating, while Vampire Diaries has quickly dropped to 90.3 because of its single-week fall. The Stability Index Rating is a measurement developed and used by the BlipNetwork to try and monitor how much of its original audience a television show is maintaining by comparing its highest overnight rating with its average. Fast Nationals usually provide a snapshot of what Americans are watching by pulling numbers from the top urban markets that includes both live viewing and same-day timeshifted viewing.

Re: [scifinoir2] Fringe Pilot Being Shown Again Tonight on Fox
I'm not quite getting your meaning? You mean you think it was a good show, but it won't find the audience it deserves? I thought it was good; a little uneven, a few things from the fringe science that jumped into more scifi (like being able to enter an unconscious man's mind via LSD and computer networks) than current science. A couple of times I couldn't tell if it was leaning more towards super science that's possible and even in existence, or day after tomorrow scifi that's possible but several year away. I'm not yet sure where they're going: an X-Files type show, perhaps? But I enjoyed it enough to take the ride for the season. We certainly could use some new scifi on television. And John Noble was really good as the disturbed scientific genius, childlike in his enthusiasm one moment, clueless in an innocent kind of way, disturbingly willing to take risks at times, solicitious of people the next. he's the best thing about the show. -- Original message -- From: Omari Confer [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fringe- More proof that the world is not ready for a 21st century genre show.. c w m On Sun, Sep 14, 2008 at 7:12 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Fringe pilot is being re-aired tonight on Fox, starting--now.

When Olivia's investigation leads to multi-billion dollar corporation Massive Dynamic and its manipulative corporate executive, NINA SHARP (Blair Brown), our unlikely trio, along with Department of Homeland Security Agent PHILLIP BROYLES (Lance Reddick) and FBI Agents CHARLIE FRANCIS (Kirk Acevedo) and ASTRID FARNSWORTH (Jasika Nicole), will discover that what happened on Flight 627 is only a small piece of a larger, more shocking truth. The FRINGE pilot is directed by Emmy Award-winning Alex Graves (The West Wing), and the series is produced by Warner Bros. Television and Bad Robot Productions. J.J.

Re: [scifinoir2] Fringe Premieres Tonight on Fox
For the Official Record, folks, I lasted abotu forty seconds into Fringe. I put my TV on Fox, settled back- - and then thought to myself, This is *Abrahms*! It'll launch like like the Shurttle, majestic as all get-out, make everyone go WOW! and then it'll *disappear*. I have better ways to spend my time. I spent the hour before the new Eureka ep came on watching the Weather Channel. I think I came out ahead. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQUxw9aUVik --- On Tue, 9/9/08, Martin [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: From: Martin [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [scifinoir2] Fringe Premieres Tonight on Fox To: scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com Date: Tuesday, September 9, 2008, 7:01 PM I'll give it a stab but, even if it proves cosmically magnificent, it'll still lose me at 9:00.
