Re: Fringe anyone?
Saw this last night and thought it was pretty good. I'm not into following shows at all, but it wasn't a waste of my time.
Plus, isn't that have Charlie Conway? He's a spaz!

Re: Fringe anyone?
Trying to catch up. Three episodes behind. Gotta catch up!"It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

Re: Fringe anyone?
I'm in the same boat. I'm caught up w Prison Break, but have 3 or 4 episodes of this watch. Also have a bunch of episodes of Heroes on the DVR, but that show's terrible, so I might just delete them.Comment

Re: Fringe anyone?
Without spoiling it, I thought the show took a step up in quality during the last episode with some excellent character development.Jordan Mychal Lemos

Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.
Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.Comment

Re: Fringe anyone?
I'm now two episodes behind.
I liked the radioactive girls episode. New element to the series with the step father in Dunham's life.
Seeing some character development. Imagine that in television."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied.

Re: Fringe anyone?
I hope they go the xfiles route instead of the house route. If it goes the alias route, I'm done.
I can see where this can drop off because it's pretty formulaic. These guys are turning in the McGeyver of fringe stuff.
The last episode with the kid strayed from that, which was excellent.
The only thing that bothers me is in every episode, the guy from the wire, keeps saying there's something we have to tell you. Every freaking episode.Comment

Re: Fringe anyone?
One episode behind, but will be two after tonight.
It's almost like they want Broyles to be the voice between producer and audience. "Hey, we definitely have answers, but you wouldn't understand those answers until you have more questions."
Agent Dunham is basically the audience. She knows as much as we do. Broyles is the creator, or a pseudo-creator, who knows a great deal of information.
But, we can't have every answer and enjoy/understand it's importance until we go along with Dunham for the ride. I think I enjoy that. It's not like Heroes where I feel they are just throwing darts. Fringe is telling me straight up that I may not like it, but I have to deal with it because I just won't understand the big picture just yet.
It does get rather annoying when Broyles just stares at Dunham and says, "I may not have been clear about everything regarding to The Pattern." Dunham, like the viewer, just responds, "No, but I'm listening. Care to share now?"
Anyway, character development seems excellent thus far.
I know that Walter Bishop is hiding something from his son Peter. Something he did to him as a child that he realizes if revealed would further strain their relationship. But, I like how Peter is slowly warming up to his dad and I wonder if in time, when things are better, will Walter finally tell Peter to truth.
My guess, assumption is that Peter is part of The Pattern. Part of an experiment to increase his intelligence, to make him the ultimate child of a mad scientist.
Then there is Dunham's past with her step-father. Interested to see what that has to do with The Pattern. If the guy knows where she lives, who she is, I imagine that he's connected in some way.
Nina Sharp mentiond that Dunham was specifically chosen. I wonder how deep that goes. And we already know that Sharp and Broyle have a working relationship."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

Re: Fringe anyone?
I'm worried about the ratings. 5.2/8 last week for a show that apparently costs a lot of money while airing on a network not afraid to pull the plug on anything. Hopefully, it can improve."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied.
