Life (I) (2007–2009)

Great Show

[9/10 · 9 March 2012]

If you like a TV series with lots of different twists and things going on in each episode, LIFE is for you. Great storyline that makes you think about what you would do if you had been in the main characters situation. You will have to watch a few episodes to get a full understanding of what is really going on to appreciate the show. Too bad that most of the shows with dept seem not to last long these days. D Lewis is a great character actor along with Alan Arkin. This show is deep so skipping episodes will greatly decrease the enjoyment of the show. In this aspect it is somewhat like "Life on Mars" and "Lost". There is a story within a story going on during each episode.

I just started watching it the second time(1st time a couple of years ago). It's that good.

Day Break (2006–2007)

Very Unusual and Great Show

[9/10 · 28 June 2011]

This show is outstanding. Great plot, great character development. Watch the 1st episode and you feel that have a vested interest in seeing Hopper solve the puzzle that gets larger with each episode. As every great TV series does, each episode leaves you wanting more. You can definitely tell that some of the people involved with "LOST" had a hand in this series. Similar character and plot development. Very clever storyline just as is LOST. Very good selection of actors in this series. Many are unknown but are cast perfectly. A great blend of action, mystery and sci-fi which is always difficult to do without the plot becoming overwhelming. Would have loved to see a 3rd season but could understand how a show of this nature could just go on so long.

Fringe (2008–2013)

Great Show

[10/10 · 6 May 2009]

One of the best science fiction shows of all time.

Great plot with plenty of sub-plots.

Each show builds on the last. Somewhat like X-Files but much more complex and detailed.

If you like conspiracy theories and government cover up type plots, this one is for you.

Not as much unbelievable material like many other science fictions which sets this show apart.

J.J. Abrams shows are some of the best. New twists with each episode.m

John Noble is one of my favorites as Walter Bishop. Reminds me of some of the brilliant people I have met.
