TV Series

I very much liked LOST and The Leftovers.

Looking for a new series to start and a few over time on here have mentioned - Fringe.
Most recently yourself and you are giving it huge praise.

Watched the first 2 episodes and I presume it hugely improves? Ha.
It’s pretty corny so far. I’m happy to go along with the silliness but I’m hoping it gets a bit better? I’ll stick with it though.

It’s sort of like the X-Files.

'Fringe' is one of my favourite shows ever. 'Walter' is a HOOT for one!

But, that aside, the first series does run into formulaic issues as it tries to keep viewers on-side and within a trusted framework.

It's genius comes when it leaves that space after the first series and becomes more adventurous in its thought process.

I like shows that are not afraid to be different.
 
Not watched Fringe for a while, but I remember the earlier episodes being more focused on a 'monster of the week' formulaic kinda thing whilst introducing the main characters. Then it got awesome and stayed that way.

Just read yours as I was reading and posting along.

Your review was simple and very accurate.
 
I like my European crime series and just started the new French series Blood Coast on Netflix. Promising.
I'll need to give it a try, my issues with French TV shows is I compare them all to Engrenages and naturally they all fade in comparison to it.
I've just finished a decent Swedish 6-part crime-drama, A Nearly Normal Family.

I loved fringe and watched it because I had enjoyed Person of Interest with Jim Caviezel and Michael Emerson and someone recomended that as similar but better.

I loved both tbf but fringe was slightly more fun.
