Back in 2010, I discovered a little fun trend on the Internet: creating fake Facebook conversations between fictional characters. I am pretty much constantly going through a re-watch of my favorite TV show, The X-Files, and wondered: What could it have looked like, if Scully and Mulder had had access to Facebook at the time… Read More The X-Files Facebook Project: Introduction
I’m liking Fringe more and more. And no, it’s not a case of me trying to delude myself into making the task of reviewing it less tedious. Quite the contrary in fact — reviewing Fringe is becoming more and more fun. Wouldn’t Walter be proud. I have to admit that, during the first minute or… Read More TV Review: Fringe, Season 2, Episode 5: Dream Logic
It’s very satisfying to watch a show slowly grow into its full potential. Fringe’s first season was slow, and many stopped watching for various reasons. But for those of us who stuck by it, our patience is paying off, more and more so with each new episode of season two. The title of this particular… Read More TV Review: Fringe, Season 2, Episode 4: Momentum Deferred
The third episode of Fringe‘s second season marks the return of The Observer. Even if he is only present for a couple of seconds at the very end of the episode, it’s an important scene nonetheless, as it reveals more about what this mysterious figure is up to. And it’s not good. Still looking for… Read More TV Review: Fringe, Season 2, Episode 3: Fracture
A promising TV show throughout season one, Fringe is definitely becoming better, slowly unfolding to deliver its full potential. Season two is already better than season one, and the second episode is better than the first. On the one hand, like I noted last week, the acting is a lot better (except for John Noble,… Read More TV Review: Fringe, Season 2, Episode 2: A Night of Desirable Objects
I love Fringe, but I have to admit there are a lot of details in the plot that I don’t understand. I’m certain that during the coming season, I will click as to the real significance of a previous occurrence and feel totally ridiculous because of how long it took me to get it. Such… Read More TV Review: Fringe, Season 2, Episode 1: A new Day in the Old Town
As some of you have noticed (and sent me numerous emails about), there are a couple of Fringe Season 2 reviews that are missing. But never fear; they have been written. I just haven’t uploaded them on this blog yet. And while I love order and neatness, I have to go against the kind of… Read More Catching up…
It’s pretty awesome to be treated to mid-season mini-finales; it forces networks to work really hard to make sure that, after the sometimes really long winter hiatus, viewers are going to come back for more. Supernatural really worked their last show, and so did Fringe. As mentioned in the last couple of reviews, Fringe episodes… Read More TV Review: Fringe, Season 2, Episode 10: Grey Matters
Another week went by, another episode of Fringe, and hope increased that this show is definitely working its way up to the level of awesomeness it potentially can achieve. On the one hand, it seems like Fringe writers have been reading the complaints about how the episode is so slow sometimes, as the pace has… Read More TV Review: Fringe, Season 2, Episode 9: Snakehead
I know I have said this numerous times in perhaps most of my season two reviews of Fringe, but some things are just meant to be repeated: this show is getting better with every passing week. Yes there are occasional fall-backs, but overall, the growth is positive, and the rest of the season is looking… Read More TV Review: Fringe, Season 2, Episode 8: August
