I think you meant to put "Fox has picked up J.J. Abrams' Fringe". Anyways, I'll definitely be checking out this show. I hope it's got something unique and different from the other shows in this genre.

Sounds like X-Files without Mulder. Could be interesting.

So, they're remaking the X-Files?

Wow - X-Files without the convoluted and contradictory mythos? no Mulder? I can't wait!

When I first started reading this article and saw that the show was called "Fridge," I thought that we might have something a little weird and interesting. Then a mere second later, I realized it was a typo and read the synopsis and now I know that it's just a paranormal cop drama. A lot of people are already thinking of it as just another version of the X-Files, but we all know that X-Files was just another version of Kolchak The Night Stalker and it just goes on from there. We've seen it before. Nothing new here, but a few actors and a few advances in video technology. "Cloverfield" was just another version of what the japanese have been doing for decades and "Lost" is something we've been seeing over and over again since "The Twilight Zone" and "The Outer Limits." And the defense that there's nothing new and that it's all already been done is the defense of a sterile imagination.
