I don’t post about Fringe as much as I do my other fandoms. The post:squee ratio is way off, though. I love Fringe. We’re into Season 2 and I see no red flags that make me want to jump ship. If anything, I think I can weather the Charlie storm and come out a little stronger for it. My admiration for Olivia is still high, and I’m as intrigued by Peter as I’ve ever been. Walter, while brilliantly portrayed by John Noble, continues to know more than most people can even dream, but I’m starting to hurt for him a little too much. Now that we know the gravity of his secret, it’s hard to watch him deal with the love and guilt he has for Peter. It’s great stuff, though.

I absolutely hate that we have to take a few weeks off for baseball. Seriously, don’t they sell special satellite packages for people who really want to watch sports these days?

I made a TON of observations this week and I can’t wait to hear the far more brilliant members of The Fringe Podcast give their takes on the ep. They’ve just announced that Jasika Nicole (Astrid) will be on this week’s podcast! Sunday can’t come soon enough (and I have NEVER said that!).

Of all the shows airing this fall, none has me more excited than Fringe. When the pilot leaked, I must have watched it at least twenty times in anticipation of the series premiere. I can still tell you every little difference in the two versions. I also looped each episode once it aired in anticipation of the next week’s (or just “next” as the case too often was) episode. Over the summer, I found myself looping all of Season 1 quite a few times in anticipation of Season 2.

So as you can see, I really am a fan, but some of the casting rumors (some confirmed) have me a little concerned. I’m not sure what’s going on with Charlie, but especially after seeing the Season 1 gag reel, I really, REALLY hope he stays around in this dimension or another we get to see. I also pretty much want no females other than Olivia and Astrid. I know that sounds backward of me, but it’s true. I like to watch the boys’ game. So, there, I’ve said it. Keep Charlie, ditch the new chick. Now.

fringeIn the battle for television supremacy, I’m going to give the very slightest of edge to Fringe. The season ended on an intriguing note, and the show is holding up well in the DVD loop. I’m looking forward to next season more so than any other show, so that’s why I’m giving it the edge.

seekerComing in a very close second is Legend of the Seeker. Although I frequently hold episodes (sometimes for weeks) before watching, I am always pleased with this show. I squee every time there’s a R/K moment and laugh at Zedd’s zany idiosyncrasies. I get wrapped up in each episode’s adventure as if it’s a feature film, and the cinematography is stunning enough to make it feel like a feature at times.

I had a hard time leaving out Dexter, but I feel there is a lot more Dexter-love to come when the new season starts up. Harper’s Island has proven to be more fun than cerebral, but that’s acceptable. After all, it is the only show my brother and I love together.

With RL work kicking into noose-gear, I don’t know when I’ll have the hate post up, but I think you know which show will top that very long list….heh.
