@avclub-da496e2db2e50a068b4ae5549d4ae1b0:disqus - I'm still extremely fond of the first season, and I think the next couple after that are good too.  It wasn't really until S4 that I started watching it out of obligation than desire.  The finale made me wish I had just stopped when I had originally considered stopping.

@avclub-884c4beddd8c98bb3b016bdfcc1bcdf8:disqus - Your legitimate point was also buried under such hyperbole as "Can you not watch any science fiction, ever" and "I honestly feel bad for you," so you'll forgive me for not giving your initial comment any more attention than I felt it deserved.

Ha!  Yeah, I am a pretty sad person who could use some feeling-bad-for.  It's been twenty long years since I've been able to watch anything!  Fringe is just the tip of the iceberg!  Oh, if I had a nickel for every time I burst into tears at the sight of a Harry Potter poster…   If only it were possible to enjoy some…

Oh man, the Lost finale made me blindingly furious.  I'd certainly hope that any other show, ever, could manage to do "better" than that absolute turd.  Even with my dislike of what I've seen of Fringe, I would admit that it's ten times the show Lost became.  But there's another debate altogether.  :)

Yeah, it was only Season 1 stuff that I saw.  Perhaps I'll give it another go…

Mm, I tried to get into Fringe but I just couldn't.  I think my main problem was that it kept trying to claim that OMG SCIENCE was explaining all this stuff, and I just wasn't capable of suspending my disbelief.  I didn't mind it with X-Files 'cause it rarely attempted to provide explanations beyond "it's…

@avclub-3531d0b9e7d83caaef7ecf9ec9b363f2:disqus - Sure, so long as you ignore the HTDA EP which was two years ago, the Social Network soundtrack two years ago, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo soundtrack last year (three discs!), he hasn't put out anything in, well, four years.  Five years ago was The Slip and Ghosts.

It's like her and the first guy on the left didn't get the memo about looking stern.  Way to inadvertantly lighten up the picture, fellas…
