Fringe?

[Mathieu]

Hey, I just would like to know if anybody watches Fringe and thinks it's worth watching. I'm thinking about trying to give it a shot one of these days.

[tms]

I admit: it's a sort of weird show, but at the same time, it's very good!

i love fringe!!!

the only thing i don't like about it is... well it can be summed up in this "The Soup with Joel McHale" quote:

Fringe is a show about a special unit of the FBI that solves supernatural mysteries. The only mystery it cannot solve is why it isn't called The X-Files

Pros: Pretty good acting, imaginative writing... very thriller-esque. It's also quite aesthetic.
Cons: The science is HORRIBLE lol. If you can get past that, you'll like this show. Also, the season storyline is kind of lost on me at this point, but that's the network's fault for long breaks and irregular scheduling.

Interesting spoiler...

SPOILER: Click to show

There will be an appearance at the end of this season by Leonard Nimoy, Mr. SciFi himself, who will play a pretty important character

okay so i'm gonna comment on both:

yeah, legit science is disproving that there cannot be people with telekinesis... what walter does is the opposite... i also don't like how it seems like they have the entire FBI behind them... like supportively.

as for the spoiler:

SPOILER: Click to show

Leonard Nimoy is supposed to be Walter's former partner. like the scene in the last episode when alter watches the tape with little Olivia

Fringe is definietly on of my favorites shows on TV right now. It has a great cast, great stories, and some very funny writing. Personally, I think it's completely awesome, and very fun to watch.

so ya know how FOX does those "The More You Know" rip offs for it's rip off of NBC's "Green Week"? well i saw the one Walter did and he's incredibly australian and i laughed when i heard him.

I am loving Fringe, and I think it has been even better since it's return. Plus, Zack Whedon is writing on it, so its sort of Whedony by association.

Really? that's really cool! **Karma** someone told me that Joss is J.J. Abrams... like he can shape shift... legit.

[Rebecca]

OMG LOL, that's so funny I hope it's true.

And Fringe is the first FOX Show to be added into their fall lineup...

[snizapman6294]

yay!!!

I saw a few episodes of Fringe but it didn't really hold my attention so I stopped watching it after the fifth or so episode. It doesn't seem like the most original idea ever either.

[VampSlayer]

I started the first episode, and I couldn't get into it. It looked really cool, though.

[gumgnome]

I just started watching it under recommendation of a friend - seen the first two episodes and liking it at the moment. It'll depend heavily on how much they are willing to invest in a long-running but plausible story arc to see whether it gets my vote.
