Fringe is complete shit.

A totally LAME X-files ripoff complete with braindead characters and
dumb plots.

I hope it sinks down Abrams fat ego-infested asshole.

I do not agree with your comment! The show Fringe is "flawed", but
saying the show is "shit" is pretty harsh. I think Chris Carter could
fix it, if they gave him a chance to do it. JJ Abrams has way too many
projects in the works right now, so most of them suffer in one way, or
another. I can't wait to see how much he is going to mess up the next
season of "Lost"!

I agree. Fringe is disappointing but not shit. I rewatched
a couple of X-File episodes over the Christmas break and
even after all these years they remain scarey. Which is
a lot more than can be said for most horror movies.

He is the oddest writer/producer I have ever come across.
The Rommel of TV production. He knows how to get a show
off the ground and rolling along but never seems to plan far
enough in advance to keep it on track.

Speaking of JJ Abrams! I wonder if the last season of Lost has decent
ratings will ABC really end the show like they said they would? ABC
needs all the shows they can get right now, and I would be surprised if
Lost does well this last season, that they would just let it go.

All indications are that the entire cast and crew are sure that it will be
the final season. In the absence of a preexisting contract for another year,
it seems to me that ABC has no choice. You can't keep airing the show if the
people who make it have all left. The series is being ended as a planned
artistic decision, not because they couldn't do well if they went another
year. I'm sure the ABC executives *wish* it weren't ending, but the creators
seem to have decided that this is the right year to buckle down, focus, and
wrap up the story in a way that doesn't diminish the quality of the show, in
a creative sense. That's just the way it's going down.

Well they could always have a "Lost 2" series!

Yaeh. It could all be about a bunch of Hollywood
script writers who haven't a clue how to plot a story.

Was that just a general dig at Hollywood, or specifically at 'Lost'?

If the latter ... moan moan, whine whine, bitch bitch. Is no show *ever*
good enough to escape the dreaded Hurshman diatribe?
