Gonz posted:Bryan Fuller is physically incapable of seeing something through to completion. Also when he tries, it's bad. Hannibal S3 was very weak. Anderson looked like she approached every scene without any direction and it was frustratingly tedious to watch. You need more than some slowmo shots of various wildlife to sustain a show into a third season.

In which case, definitely go watch Sleeping Beauty and live-blog your reaction.

Fringe is a good show, but it's aged a lot. If your expectation is modern premier serial television (see: American Gods S1) it's about as far away from that as possible, dropping just short of NCIS levels of weekly network TV. Much of it is a weekly procedural where you replace the murder of the week with "why is this person on fire for no reason" of the week. That's either a good or bad thing, depending on your POV. Some runs of episodes do a fairly decent job of straddling the line between weekly-episodic and story-arc based material, but I watched it through for the first time this year and it just feels like it wants to commit to the latter but can't. It would be a very different show if it was made today, which you can kinda feel when just watching it. S5 also did eventually commit to the longer arc format, but it missed the mark by a fair margin. I did still very much enjoy it and would recommend it to most people, but given the thread it's worth going in remembering it's 2008-era network TV.

Anna Torv got a lot better in S2-4, then fell completely asleep in S5 and looked like she was looking behind the camera to see when the day's shooting was due to end.
