Fringe Review: Brave New World, Part II

Fringe finales are usually remarkable works of art: emotionally affecting, scientifically (and delightfully) improbable, mythologically fascinating. This finale was not remarkable, merely good. It is more interesting to wonder what will happen next than to consider what has just happened.The plan to collapse two universes in order to create a third—the plan we had briefly attributed to Jones, but » Read More

Concert Review: Snow Patrol takes over Hollywood's Palladium

At one point a a number of years ago, it seemed like Snow Patrol could be the next U2, or, if not quite that lofty, the next Coldplay. The Irish/Scottish quintet’s songs covered the same anthemic, sweeping themes and were aggressively melodic and commercial. http://www.hitfix.com/blogs/the-beat-goes-on » Read More

Fringe Review: Brave New World, Part I

“Anything is possible.”And so it begins: the long, quick slide down the rocky outcropping towards the cliff from which we will hang with delicious, knuckle-whitening suspense until fall. “Brave New World, Part I” continues the great tradition of wonderful, mystifying, tantalizing penultimate episodes. And, in keeping with Fringe tradition, it is almost impossible to rate or even assess.The first » Read More

Fringe Review: Worlds Apart

“Every war has a cost.” Now we know. No—that’s not right. Now we think we know Jones’s master plan, and we think we know his motives (basic megalomaniacal world destruction, with animal accompaniment). What matters more, however, is the damage he has caused. Not earthquake damage, although of course that is significant, but damage to the sense of community that has, for the past few episodes, bee » Read More
