Is it just me, or has Broyles been in an awful lot of these filming pictures?

I chatted with Lance on FB last week. And he said he was glad I watch Fringe. Some days ago, John Noble said he’s in Vancouver already, filming his scenes.

I hope the “Fringe” brain trust is finding time to enjoy the week-long “Torchwood: Children of Earth” mini-series currently airing on Space (or BBC America). Paying just the right amount of attention, the “Fringe” team could learn valuable lessons, not the least of which is that great sci-fi storytelling need not come at the expense of edge-of-your-seat tension and excitement and that there is nothing better than a WTF moment which completely unravels what you thought you knew to be fact. JJ already knows this so very well, but with “Fringe”, he is sooooo holding back.

An equally important discovery (a discovery that only FOX has yet to make) they might pick up on is that serial episodes really are the superior choice for great TV.

When I was first anticipating the arrival of Torchwood, many years ago now, I was expecting it to be something much more like what Fringe is today. The first series of Torchwood was disappointing, the 2nd was slightly better, and this year mini-series started off fantastic, but ended in the usual extreme misery inducing way that Torchwood likes to. I feel that Fringe manages to utilise the “Over-arcing Mythology” card much better, and the characters are much more likeable. In Torchwood, the only likeable character was Toshiko, but she has now gone.

TCOE certainly had a misery-inducing conclusion, but I’d rather witness misery-inducing quality than coma-inducing mediocrity. I’ve come to the conclusion that no beloved series ends satisfactorily in the hearts and minds of its followers.

We die-hard “Alias” fans understand that endings are not for dwelling on. “Lost” zealots will know this reality in just under a year.

I really like “Fringe” for the way it’s constructed–First, each individual show has its own story arc, but that arc is part of a much larger, series arc. This way, you can get edge-of-your-seat stuff along with the satisfaction of the serial-style shows. Actually, I’m trying to think of where else this kind of story construction has ever been used (in the series I watch, of course). To use one of Walter’s terms, “It’s unprecidented!”

One thing they have to keep in mind when they write is a feeling for the audience they’re writing for. Purhaps that which hits with British audiences doesn’t hit so much with American audiences. Just my 11 cents.

My issue with “Fringe” is that, 20 episodes in, it has yet to create any (I mean ANY) edge-of-your-seat stuff. I can’t think of a single scene in the first season of “Fringe” that could cause an increase in viewer heart rate. I’m ready and I’m certainly waiting, but failure to deliver is the order of the day. Too much effort on grossing me out with the sticky and the gooey, and not enough (any) attention on generating tension and/or excitement. To me, that’s bass ackwards.

As far as story arcs, “Burn Notice” uses the same story-within-a-story formula. Client-of-the-week with a little ‘big picture’ plot advancement sprinkled in very sparingly. Hint-of-serial is apparently the new serial.
