Steve,

It doesn't matter who you start because you have a horse shoe up your ass so far I'm not really sure how you get through the day. You must be gay.

Just watched it and I'm fairly impressed. It's like X files but with results. The previews look pretty good too. I'm in for the season.
Hank's tenure at Soulsuckers, INC, LLC, DBA TBD, had not been long, but it had been distinguished... By drunkenness, hair-trigger violence, and a total lack of performance. I would call it a steady decline in performance, but that would imply that he performed at one point in time. In fact he had not. He was drunk.

And without the Aliens. (At least so far, lol)

God I hope they don't do aliens though... at least at this point they're kinda of clinging to reality and that's what makes it great. (Granted I don't think aliens are necessarily realistic, but it doesn't come off the same.)

I get what you're saying. Furthermore, in this one at least the whole problem can't be solved with a camera phone.

I'll keep watching it.

I hope they get a more masculine character to carry the show though. She just doesn't have it and the crazy doc's son is too metro.

But I like a lot of the show's possibilities. Even if a plane landing itsel has been around for a while but a plane taxing itself is pretty unbelievable.

I think the crazy old doc is gonna be the key to the show.

A promising beginning, but let's see where they take it.

First show was decent so I hope that this show has legs. I was a fan of X-files and Fringe does have quite a few similarities. Cameo appearances by Fox/Scully in a future episode are required.

In which the episode is closed by the FBI Liason from Fringe handing M&S each a new digital pocket camera?

i hate you, too.


i liked the show--didn't find it quite as profound as i expected it to be (and as i think LOST is), but it kept me hooked and i'll be watching it till it's off the air.

If there are two things LHE players like, they are weed and pornography. The third would be kittens. LHE does not appear on the list.

I really enjoyed it. Darin Morgan I saw was one of the producers and he was one of the best X-Files writers. The lead girl still needs work but she was already better in this one than the pilot.
