Here’s a brief programming note. My cousin Jason runs his own Blog – aimed at the action figure enthusiast – over at poeghostal.com. While I lack the encyclopedic knowledge of that world, he recently came-a-callin’ to me looking to see if I could give a new line of Lost figures the once over and provide my…
The Beginning of the End. That’s what ABC’s crack team of sales weasels have been billing last night’s season premiere. And based on what we’ve seen, they may be right – or they could be way off. After all, there seemed to be ample evidence to support that we may just be watching the End…
So, in a few short days we reach the Beginning of the End. And then, in a few short months’ time, we’ll finally find ourselves waking on the morning after the final episode of Lost airs with mixed reactions. No doubt, some will treat whatever finale is cooked up as a slight on par with…
Screw Lost. I want to talk about Fringe. Here’s a show I derided all season. Kept starting and restarting more times than the Lohan/Ronson debacle. Was on again/off again more times than Ross and Rachel. (Who? What?) And then I settled down and started watching it again a few weeks back – largely buoyed by…
After five seasons, I’ve cracked the formula to a Lost season-ender. We always get the finale in 3 acts. The penultimate episode always serves as Act 1 – using the hour to set the board and push all of the pieces in motion. Then, we get served a 2 hour opus that leaves us staggered…
A few weeks back, I confessed to my on again, off again relationship with Fringe – JJ Abrams other cool little sci-fi enterprise airing over on Fox. At the time I mentioned that I have been picking it up and dropping it several times over the season as everything about its pedigree hits me right…
Sorry for the late-ish post. My handy dandy screen cap site decided to sleep in again this morning – meaning I had to put this on the backburner. Sure, I had the words crafted, but without the pretty pics, the piece just doesn’t feel whole. I have to keep this site nice and visual for…
Earlier this season, I gave Lost co-creator JJ Abrams’ new show, Fringe, a two episode try-out. I was a huge X-Files fan and, of course, really dig Abrams’ myth-building skills (as evidenced by my devotion to this property) – so this show seemed right in my wheel house. Well, two episodes in and I couldn’t…
Oh how I wish my Lost recap had landed on April 1st. I would have treated you all to an in-depth dissertation of Sin City – that made for Skinemax soft-core smut that I’ve stumbled upon once or twice or repeatedly. So many mysteries to ponder in that one. Alas, we had to settle for…
This whole season I’ve been claiming that there are 16 episodes for Season 5 and 16 for Season 6 – and then done. I just took a look at a site that keeps the schedule of upcoming episodes and it looks like they’ve added one for this season. According to the latest schedule, Episode 17…
