Season 3, Episode 14
3/10
Congrats: It's a soap opera....
7 September 2015
Warning: Spoilers
This is one of many science fiction series I have watched via Netflix and Prime. Sadly, in the past two weeks, in a pathetic attempt to raise drooping ratings, it went from a quirky, interesting doppelganger parody to a sappy, dull and frankly stupid soap. Hello ladies, welcome! Get your tissue ready. We'll do our darn best to jerk those tears from you. Series like this that successfully strike a harmonious balance between science fiction and melodrama are renewed. Fringe does not. 6B, so cleverly hinted at by a license plate last week, tips the scales over to sap with FIVE relationships that take up most of the air time. Oh boo-hoo! I miss you-I love you-it's wonderful to have spent 45 years with the "One", ad nausea. I can only imagine what "romance" you will throw at us next week. Of course, science fiction (and also junk like this) have a limited audience. Just look at the horrible failures of Star Trek and Star Wars :-).
