Fringe! And a TV question...

eldritchhobbitI'm currently hard at work on a Secret Project of (Temporary) Secretness, but I wanted to resurface for a quick note...
First, in honor of Fringe's return for the fall television season, Fringe Science: Parallel Universes, White Tulips, and Mad Scientists (2011), which includes my essay "In Search of Fringe's Literary Ancestors," is on sale for 99 cents in Kindle format through September 23. Here it is!
Speaking of the fall season, which new programs do you intend to "audition"? We plan to give Revolution, Last Resort, and 666 Park Avenue a try. Each looks promising: here's hoping one or more delivers! (I've already seen the Elementary pilot, and I definitely will not be going back for seconds.)
What about you?
Walter: Hello, I'm Dr. Walter Bishop. This is test subject number six.
Peter: What happened to subjects one through five?
Walter: I believe the university settled with them out of court. They probably never had to work again. Not that they could.

Date: 2012-09-15 02:27 pm (UTC)I've been interested in the trailers for Revolution (which S.M. Stirling told me seems to owe something to his books), but whether I get to watch any of it remains to be seen.
Best to you and yours,

Date: 2012-09-19 04:33 pm (UTC)Ah, the Secret Project is almost completed, and then it won't be a secret any longer! I can't wait. It's SF-tastic, I'm thrilled to say.
Hey, you aren't on Goodreads, are you?
I'd understood that Revolution was inspired by Stirling's work, which makes me hopeful. Any word on if he's happy with it?
I hope our paths cross soon, and that all's well in your neck of the woods!

Date: 2012-09-19 04:39 pm (UTC)I was interested in Nashville, because I really liked Connie Britton in American Horror Story, but I suspect I'd be driven mad with scenery-watching and such. We lived in Nashville for seventeen years (through 2007). I could identify so many of the settings in the trailer, it wasn't funny. That speaks very well for the show, though; the creators obviously are going for local authenticity with the filming locations!

Date: 2012-09-15 07:41 pm (UTC)We've seen two episodes of Go On--the second one wasn't as awesome as the first, but still pretty good. I think we'll keep watching New Girl,which is like the little girl with the curl, but I giving up on Two Broke Girls.
We TiVo'd all the episodes of Once Upon a Time last year and are finally working through them. I'm kinda "meh" on the whole thing, but TODS is teaching a course on philosophy of mythology in the spring, so he wants to keep up with that (and Grimm, too, of course, which he watches regularly). He's waiting for Fringe and Walking Dead to start up again, and we're both eager for Person of Interest (for which we have to thank you for turning us on to).
And I'm hoping Castle will be better this season. Too much angst in the fluff last season, IMNSHO!
Of course we have to give Elementary a try, but I haven't heard a single good thing about it.
We're currently rewatching the complete DVD set of Barney Miller--when we're done with that, we'll try to catch up with the new Doctor Who.
[And we're totally nabbing that Fringe collection for the Kindle - thanks for the heads-up!]

Date: 2012-09-16 04:27 am (UTC)I'm not planning on following any new TV shows (I've just been discovering a few that are on their 3rd or 4th season), but let me know if Revolution is good, decent, or ridiculous. That's the only new one I'm aware of because of all the ads they showed during the Olympics.

Date: 2012-09-19 04:49 pm (UTC)I'll let you know about Revolution! It's based on some of S.M. Stirling's work, so I'm optimistic.
