The first season and much of the second, yeah, but as soon as it goes all in on the drama with Dunham, it went to shit. Oh boo hoo, you cheated on me with myself, oh boo hoo I don't know who you are in this universe, oh boo hoo I love you so much now because magic and shit, oh boo hoo our daughter is dead waah. Fricking bullshit drama ruins shows like this all the time.
I tried watching it a few months ago. Made it like 10-15 episodes in but it never really clicked with me. I also couldn't stand the main chick's accent.
Absolutely. The blatant ford and sprint shilling aside and the dog shit story line of Olivia getting possessed by William Bell it is certified kino. I just finished a rewatch like 2 weeks ago.
Oh man, that's right. She tried to turn that gag into her personal oppreshunz narrative.
Obviously forgot that the dude's character had scooped out a large chunk of his own brain and was forgetting nearly everything on the reg (by design it turns out, because he'd been in possession of extremely dangerous knowledge).
The only time the LOST team even attempted to tie all their loose strings and eccentric character behaviors together into a larger picture. And they didn't do too badlly in the end.
Yes, somewhat. I loved the FBI plotlines but they took the whole alternate universe plotline too far and doubled down on it. I liked it when it was a similar X Files detective show focusing on investigations and such.
It's in the show. When they cross over to the alternate timeline the other police force uses crime statistics to prevent crime. I can't remember how big of a plot point it was, been years since I watched it.
Yes. It starts out as a pretty cookie-cutter monster of the week slop but quickly evolved into something more. Then it dared to throw the concepts out the window and do something completely different for the last season (the best one as recognized by true patricians).
it's been over 10 years since i saw it last but i remember enjoying it. it lost its way somewhere along the line, i guess S3 like others have been saying, but it ended pretty well. walter's cool
This is one of those shows where I often think about how much I miss the characters, particularly John Noble and Anna Tov. I always get excited when I see them in something but it never quite scratches the itch for me. I loved them in their roles.
Until it becomes a cellphone ad.
no
butt plugs for newborn babies.
wat
Hell yes
It was good. Weird monster of the week cases. And unlike the X-Files the overarching plot actual went somewhere
Hope we get another show like it sometime in the future
Didn't it drop the monster of the week stuff like in first season and went full on story mode
no idea
Yes. It has it's ups and downs but overall good.
>FRINGE
*CRINGE
I dropped it halfway through. Got a little bit confused to what was happening.
It gets better again. One of the few shows that fought for one more season to tie up things to actually did that.

I want to fall into fake olivia's vagenda
Yes except maybe the first half of alternate universe plot.
I forget
How dare you

Once the future came into it there was a nosedive. I didn't care about any of the characters anymore.
It climbed too deep up its own ass and they ended up never managing to tie things up nicely.
Becomes increasingly kino up to the end of S3 and then falls off a cliff.
The whole predicting future crime through statistics is going to become reality once AI has enough data.
I don't remember that in the show, are you thinking of Minority Report or something?

Now how could you POSSIBLY predict that. I can't think of a single way. Hmmm....
Season 4 was 'we should make this show shitty by dragging it out forever because we like money!'
Then people hated that so the networks wanted to cancel it.
The show runners wrapped it up in the last season, 5.
Cleo best girl
First season was kino
Then second started as kino but then just shat itself with wasted potential
And the rest were just in a steady decline

until its about a bunch of clones, yes.
S1 was pure, distilled kinography
S2 and S3 were still good
S4 was utter dogshit
S5 wasn't good but it was better than S4.
I didn't like that it started looking like a soap opera when they started shooting in Canada
