Yes, another post about Fringe. I’ve watched the pilot about 8 times now, and though there are a few parts that I tend to FF through, I’m hooked. This is my one new show for Fall. The lead actress is an impressive blend of Cate Blanchett and Elizabeth Rohm (Kate on Angel), but she is solid as Olivia Dunham. I’ve never actually seen anything that Joshua Jackson has done prior to this and he tends to grate, but over time I think he’ll lose some of that. There are few people from Oz (as expected), and as usual, they’re good. I could do without Alverez’s socio-political speech, but hopefully that was just a pilot thing.
The show premieres September 9th on FOX. Though I’ve never watched a FOX series, I’m going to make it a point to catch this one. Do me a favor and watch it too so I can find out if EVERYONE is coming back or not…. (you’ll see…..)
I’ve had this dl of Fringe for awhile now, but I kept forgetting to watch it. It’s J.J. Abrams’ latest “leaked” pilot for a mysterious, good-looking-people-centered, paranormal drama. LOST again, anyone?!? As if that’s not enough, the African lawyer (or is he?) dude is in it…and he’s a right jerk (or is he?). Twenty minutes in, I can say that it’s intriguing enough. I’ll give it a shot.
