'Lost' vs. 'Fringe' - Who Has the Better Alternate Universe?Last week two shows created by J.J. Abrams centered heavily on the idea of an alternate universe. On Lost, the show introduced an altverse where the bomb blew up the Island and Oceanic 815 landed safely in Los Angeles. On Fringe, the team got one step closer to tracking down the man trying to bring down the walls between two parallel universes.
But which altverse is superior? Which show handles the idea of an
alternate universe more realistically, more dramatically and more
compellingly? It's the ultimate J.J. showdown between his former
series and his current one.
