A Phenomenon Known As “J.J. Vu”
Even though I’ve never seen A.L.I.A.S., Josh tells me it had the same undertones. Maybe Felicity did too. It was, after all, about time travel. Maybe J.J. Abrams only has the one idea. Regardless I am going to stick around for Fringe and see where it goes. The pilot got me interested and the follow up episode that aired last night, while not stellar, managed to keep me interested. I am still “take it or leave it” at this point.
Check out HE Podcast # 28 (around 02:09:30) to hear our complete opinions on the pilot, the show’s concept, its chances for survival and why Josh hates it so much.
You can also voice your own opinion on Fringe in this Fancy Bastard Forum thread. If you haven’t already joined the FBF, feel free to do so NOW! Only a couple of rules: 1) Don’t be a jerk to anyone ever 2) Don’t be hateful to anyone ever 3) Debate but do not argue or attack 4) Have geeky fun

the best part is Josh's hair.
September 17th, 2008 at 1:21 am
Josh's hair change isn't an exaggeration, is it? Hilarity. I still need to see fringe.
September 17th, 2008 at 1:21 am
No, the best part is "one of those brain things".
September 17th, 2008 at 1:23 am
and the blood
September 17th, 2008 at 1:31 am
I'll let you end on a secret. When the final panel of your comic doesnt have a very strong joke, just add a ton of blood.
September 17th, 2008 at 1:32 am
Dude, he still has that hair from time to time even now.

New in the HijiNKS store: Josh Action Figure with Removable RealHair (TM).

Because judging from the comments, this will henceforth be known as "the hair comic", I'll add my two cents.
Seems to me that Josh's hair simply migrated over to Eli. I'm thinking alien symbiote.
September 17th, 2008 at 2:17 am
mmm… still need to see Fringe as well… still a good comic despite me not knowing the plot…
September 17th, 2008 at 2:35 am
Go to Flickr. Look at the MAME pictures.
September 17th, 2008 at 2:48 am
Eli's additional beard just migrated to the back of his head.
September 17th, 2008 at 3:14 am
Josh as Auntie Mame? Now that's an idea!
September 17th, 2008 at 4:02 am
Oh Christ, now I think I'M gonna have one of those brain things!
September 17th, 2008 at 4:04 am
Whoa… for once it's not Josh that dies! Must… not… allow… brain thing to happen.
September 17th, 2008 at 4:10 am
Seconded. Motion carries.
September 17th, 2008 at 5:45 am
TREBBLES! THEY'RE TREBBLES! AM I EVEN SPELLING THAT RIGHT?
September 17th, 2008 at 5:47 am
I saw the 1st 2 ep's & it already makes way more sense than lost. Plus the back-n-forth between the super-scientist dad & son is really funny. Whoever they're working 4 kinda makes me think of a lesser version of the B.P.R.D.
September 17th, 2008 at 7:03 am
The hair on those dolls will be made from a lock of Josh's pubes.
September 18th, 2008 at 7:16 am
hmm… it really does sound interesting… are there constant flash backs / flash forwards?
September 17th, 2008 at 8:20 am
At first, I didn't see "2004" and assumed Josh had grown hair (and Joel was just drawing real life Josh) and they were already talking about Fringe.
September 17th, 2008 at 9:15 am
I hate JJ Abrams because everything he touches eventually turns into a convoluted piece of shit. Its like he doesnt know how to stop himself.
September 17th, 2008 at 10:02 am
A la that comic a while back. Full circle…
September 18th, 2008 at 10:04 am
I hate JJ Abrams so much. Felicity? Down the tubes after two years. Alias? He left that after two years to go to Lost, which he left after two years to go do Mission Impossible 3. And then he did CLOVERFIELD which, um. 'Nuff said. Now he's touching STAR TREK and putting Zachary Quinto in it, who's only claim to fame is scowling and having the biggest eyebrows KNOWN from here to the 23rd century.
Alias isn't an acronym, either.
September 17th, 2008 at 10:18 am
But of course!
September 17th, 2008 at 10:35 am
Someone with good photoshop skills has to put Josh's face on Roz Russell.

"Storage compartment? Storage compartment? … The what? The what?"
September 18th, 2008 at 11:03 am
at this point… i'm only watching Fringe for Walter… I <3 Walter.
September 18th, 2008 at 11:04 am
I'm sure Fringe is a good show, but there are just way too many shows on right now. It's hard enough to keep up with the shows that I already like; I don't have time to get into another one.
September 18th, 2008 at 11:06 am
Works every time, doesn't it? What's so funny about blood, anyway? It really shouldn't be funny, but it is. It's like when someone farts and sneezes at the same time – pooping your pants isn't funny, but it is.
September 18th, 2008 at 2:15 am
Hi, I found your blog on this new directory of WordPress Blogs at blackhatbootcamp.com/listofwordpressblogs. I dont know how your blog came up, must have been a typo, i duno. Anyways, I just clicked it and here I am. Your blog looks good. Have a nice day. James.
September 18th, 2008 at 1:30 am
I'm down with that as long as you don't go the CAD way (see "6/9/08: Surprise! Another update" @ http://www.fullyramblomatic.com/).
September 18th, 2008 at 3:00 am
Camilla Bell's eyebrows beg to differ. As well as Peter Gallagher.
September 17th, 2008 at 6:24 am
Yeah, I've seen the Flickr of the seventh horseman.

You mean tribbles? http://www.70disco.com/startrek/tribbles.htm
September 18th, 2008 at 9:10 am
Im just glad I'm not the only one that wears the same exact clothes I was wearing +4 years ago.
On another note not at all related to this, I almost pounded my aunts face into a jelly, today, like 40 mins ago. But it would have been for a good reason, she made me miss the first hour of Sunny. Well not the whole hour, the last 40 mins but still, she would have deserved it and I would have loved it. So instead of TWO FULL HOURS of Sunny, I now get 1 hour 20 mins.
September 19th, 2008 at 2:04 am
Not sure where you are, but we only got one hour. A subpar "Manhunters" and a pretty good "Gas Crisis"

OMG Chalie was Merry! Never realized that. He looked familiar though…
September 22nd, 2008 at 11:08 am
Even if you didnt mean to type "Chalie" it made me read it the way Claire said it, so I laughed.
