James Carter: "After five seasons, two universes, and multiple timelines, Fringe ended its run January 18, 2013 on Fox. I’m proud to say I stuck with this show to the very end. More than anything – like other fans – I connected with the cast’s phenomenal performances. When the sci-fi was good, the show was great. When there was more “fi” than “sci,” the actors buoyed the show to the next peculiar portal."
The Digital Rocking Chair's insight:
A great case-study! Thank you James Carter :)

Loved this show ... it had some 'jump the shark' moments, but it was one of the best scifi series to come along since BSG. I will miss the characters.

"The project uses various means of expression for addressing the theme and the story (Emotein) through the prism of multiple approaches and experiences. The video, the book, the play, the objects, the interviews, the photos, the music are all independent and complementary ways to discover the Emotein universe." DRC: Another excellent case study from Transmedia Lab.

What I really like about the BBC’s approach to creating transmedia content for Sherlock was that the show’s producers kept everything super simple and everything they created was worked back into the show as important story points. This is an excellent case study in the use of transmedia storytelling techniques. The article contains lots of specific examples and I'm already looking forward to Part 2.

Oriane Hurard: "In reality, Cucumber, Banana and Tofu are the names given to the new transmedia creation signed by Russel T. Davies, the creator of Queer as Folk and Torchwood and Doctor Who’s showrunner from 2005 to 2010. Three series distributed through three different channels to tell a single and same story—so to speak."
