Not that much as he'll appear "as often as he can", if memory serves me right.

What I don't understand is how shows will cast a high caliber person for a very prominent role in a show and then rarely ever portray that character; why not just put someone else into the role that is willing to commit more than tiny bits and pieces? It's a bit anti-climactic imho since you get so little that it barely qualifies as a taste.

Fox will tap into the Twitterverse with special repeat airings of Glee and Fringe aimed at users of the social networking site.

The network will air a repeat of Fringe's penultimate episode at 9/8c Thursday and the Glee pilot Friday at 9/8c. During the airings, cast members and producers for both shows will tweet, and the messages will be simultaneously telecast in a lower-third scroll.

The tweets will answer fan questions, offer behind-the-scenes info from the episodes and tease the upcoming season.

Fringe producers Jeff Pinkner and J.H. Wyman, as well as cast members Joshua Jackson and John Noble, will handle the tweeting duties for their show while Lea Michele, Kevin McHale, Mark Salling, Cory Monteith, Amber Riley and Chris Colfer will all tweet Glee.

Lance Reddick says we'll learn more about Broyles' background, and the reasons for his divorce, but it won't be through flashbacks. And he tells us what to expect in season two generally:

Olivia's reemergence back into this universe will be shocking. The developments with Charlie will be mind blowing. You'll find out just how deep my relationship with Nina goes.

I just watched the episode about the internal combustion. This time, there were Tweets from the producers and John and Josh. Apparently all the symbols before the commercials connect together to have a meaning.. I wonder what it is.. the Frog, 6 fingered hand, butterfly etc.. any clue guys?

Fox recently sent out Fringe Season 2 press kits to journalists et. al. The large black box which arrived a few days ago was wrapped in a mini-version of the Fringe Season 2 poster. Inside the box were the following items:

* An introduction letter "signed" by J.J. Abrams, Jeff Pinkner, Joel Wyman, and Akiva Goldsman

* A DVD of the Fringe Season 2 premiere episode - "A New Day In The Old Town"

* A crystal cube featuring the faces of Joshua Jackson, Anna Torv, and John Noble (?!?)

* A four-page replica of the "New York Post" newspaper seen in William Bell's office in the S1 finale

* A typed letter as seen in the Season 2 premiere episode (SPOILER ALERT!)

quite jealous of that!

The newspaper shown on William Bell's desk hints at some other "roads not taken". Included in the Fringe Season 2 press kit was a 4-page replica of the newspaper from another world. Below are scans/photos of the entire paper. The "New York News" contains the following alternate realities. There are too many items to cover individually, but some of the more intersting ones are:

* Former Pres. Kenedy to Address UN - John F. Kennedy is still alive, set to talk to UN about "ex-deceased citizens"

* NTSB Withholds transcript from Flight 718 Black Box - Flight 718 was the plane that crashed in the Fringe episode The Transformation.

* Kelvin Genetics Moves HQ to Manhattan - Kelvin Genetics is the company that Dr. Walter Bishop worked for with William Bell.

* Weather Report - "No corrective action by NWS expected" - Weather can now be controlled by the government

* Cartoon - Solar, Wind, and Oil made obsolete by "Zero Point Energy" - an alternate energy source developed by Massive Dynamic.

* Genetically Engineered pets

* FDA approves facial landscaping - a facial reconstruction technique developed by Intrepus. David Esterbrook, the R&D officer at Intrepus is also mentioned. Intrepus and Esterbrook can be seen in the Fringe episode The Cure.

* Star Trek is still the top movie at the box office :)

* Daily Horoscopes - all seem to apply to Olivia Dunham...

* Massive Dynamic Ad - There's no mention of the R.E.M. pod on the Massive Dynamic website...

* Crossword Puzzle - If anyone wants to solve this and send in the answers, maybe there are some clues hidden in it?

* Bar code - The bar code on the back page is 09172009 002 - as in 9/17/2009, Season 2

    • This got me thinking, would you rather a self driving car prioritise protecting its passengers or everyone else? I'd choose the one that keeps me and my kids safest. At some point, these cars have to make those choices already, don't they? Wonder if we have a way to find out what way they lean.
    • The proportion (or number of iterations) has nothing to with this aspect of Copyright I am describing. In short, it doesn't matter how many times the manager tells you to change something or how. Your work product is always YOURS until and unless you then assign that to the person representing the client/company, usually for financial compensation -- either in salary or as a subcontract work for hire payment. if iterations determined copyright, then businesses would have learned to just keep making changes until they could claim they owned the copyright, without having to compensate the artist for their work. And that would be BAD. The only place where the amount of changes does have a role is in how much does a human modify a previous public domain work (from any source) before it is considered fair use or their own work, etc. For example, if a human makes substantial changes to a public domain (re: AI, by definition) work, then they can then claim that derivative work as their own...but NEVER the original version, of course. That's why anyone can make a movie about Dracula, for example, as long as it is based on the public domain novel, but not if they take new ideas from copyrighted movies made afterwards. As one of the people who personally advised the US Copyright Office on their recent ruling on these very issues, be assured that I specifically used the terminology precisely -- though I made it simple enough for laymen to understand it. If I made this confusing by doing so, I apologize. But, to be clear regarding your assumption that I would agree to your second statement that I quoted above -- the answer is NO. If AI does the work, no matter how much "direction" you give it, it cannot be copyrighted. All AI generated content is in the Public Domain and therefore the copyright cannot be assigned to ANYONE, even you -- until and unless substantial modifications are made to it BY A HUMAN BEING (yourself or a contracted artist/writer/etc.) and then that copyright on the derivative work is legally (in writing) transferred to you. This is a critical distinction. And it is important that people, especially AI sloppers, understand this. For example, YouTube is not paying AI slop generators for the copyright, etc. of their AI slop. What YouTube is doing is sharing AD REVENUE for permission to publish your AI slop. Copyright/ownership/rights never come into it. Importantly, that means that anyone can copy any AI slopware on YouTube, etc. and rehost it anywhere they want, even back on YouTube, and there is nothing legal that YouTube can do about it with regards to copyright protections, ownership, DMCA, etc. Anyone is legally free to use any AI slopware in any way they want. When this ruling was pending, I warned Disney legal of all of this before they did their OpenAI deal -- that it would literally dilute their entire IP portfolio forever. They ignored that warning for the PR and stock bump. But that is why, when the ruling came down last year, Disney quickly extricated themselves from that OpenAI deal, even eating the initial upfront fees -- followed closely by OpenAI ending their entire AI video generating business model. They adjusted their PR release dates to make this less obvious to shareholders, of course. Phew. I hope that this clears up the key distinctions for you and anyone reading. If you have any additional questions or even hypotheticals about AI and Copyright, please feel free to ask.
