Okay, I might give Fringe another chance...

Yeah, you did see that coming! :) Btw, next time there's 500 million in the MegaMillions lottery, PM me the number in advance, kthx. :cool:


Joel Wyman said he'll shop this to other networks to make season 2, so you never know, but I think Debris is dead.

It's great that you're going to give Fringe another chance. Sending positivity and good vibes your way....enjoy! :cool:

As for calling this entire show from the pilot, I just understand TV too well; if that skill applied to lotteries and if people bet on TV like they bet on sports I'd be a gazillionaire by now! :D

Debris cancelled, and good riddance.

https://deadline.com/2021/05/debris-canceled-nbc-one-season-1234765714/

One of the few shows I can stomach these days, yet I have no complaints about its cancellation as nothing advanced the plot sufficiently or humanized the characters adequately enough for me to care. Great decision by NBC.

Anyone remember when I said this:

The subject and production of Debris is as interesting as Fringe, B+, but with less interesting characters/actors, D-, than Fringe, so it's a C, which is 6.5/10. Audiences tune into a show for the characters they resonate with, and if that's absent, then the story has to be amazing, and if the pilot, which is supposed to be a tent pole that holds up the season, is only a 6.5/10, or a C, this may get cancelled.


Lighton: You should try Fringe again, there are so many great episodes you've missed if you only lasted to mid way through season 2. A lot of heart felt moments you'd enjoy.

Imadsani, not that it matters anymore, but Walternate is nothing like Otto, if anything, Otto is a bit like regular Walter in the sense that there's science and technology involved.

Also, I was right about the Debris tech cloning Lighton! Compare this post, to what George Jones said in 1x13. I was more right than I thought!

...the debris tech for cloning separates a different characteristic of a persons life experience or personality trait into each clone, so cool, but it isn't expanded upon, the cloning is simply left as a reason for Finola's father, George Jones being alive. I assume everyone caught that, if you didn't, uh, spoiler, lol.

I surmise that the long boring talks in this episode and backstory that Finola gives about her dad and watching him die, was specific to the debris tech in this episode like a clone that said, "You're not alone", and not her real dad who we know is still alive (or vice versa). ;)

The problem, if either of those options are the case, is that I don't care enough about these characters at all for that to be intriguing, as they've led us to care more about the tech, than human stories of connection, overcoming adversity, or the heroes journey. If they told this episode through backstory, that is, actually showing a glimpse of what the father-daughter relationship was like in the past, then flipping to the present, I'd care far more, as this is a visual medium, I need to actually see the relationship to care about it, not just overhear it.

I think the shadowy CIA/FBI/DoD/NSA characters talking in the hanger about "what we're trying to build", just comes off flat and uninteresting when I think it's supposed to be conspiratorial and intriguing, and it's not.


:D Got 'em!

Is it though? a different role I mean. Didn't the Walter of the parallel universe play a similar role? Or has it been so long that I'm confusing stuff?

No idea... I lost interest and stopped watching that show before season 2 ended. :cool:
