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.
