Most prognosticators said it wouldn’t happen. The ratings were low, it was moved to the Friday night “death slot” and it’s been a bubble show since it began. Much to our great benefit and like many of the oddities on the show itself Fringe refuses to die. The decision to renew Fringe rested squarely in […]
“Fringe” has one of the most unique premises on television and definitely has plenty of memorable characters, most, if not all, with two versions. While that alone would be more than enough to please fans, the icing on the “quirky cake” is hands-down John Noble’s ‘Walter Bishop.’ In each episode Walter manages to crank up […]
In “Forced Perspective,” Olivia is still reeling from the previous episode’s last minute revelation, when she was visited by an Observer, who told her that her untimely death was inevitable. While trying to figure out who, exactly, the mysterious man was (remember, in this new Timeline our heroes have never come across the Observers) a […]
The episode “Enemy Of My Enemy,” saw the two universes teaming up to take the mysterious David Robert Jones, and his army of new and improved shape-shifters. There were a lot of things to like in this episode. First of all, it saw the Fringe teams of both universes working together directly. We’ve seen certain […]

Even stranger, is that all of the murders […]
Throughout this season the concept of time has been a major theme that the show has been exploring. “And Those We’ve Left Behind,” continued this trend, as the Fringe team investigated a series of time displacement events that were happening around the city. “And Those We’ve Left Behind,” saw the Fringe Team investigating a series […]
“What went wrong?” Last Friday’s episode, “Novation,” saw Peter Bishop wrestling with this question, as he dealt with returning to a version of existence very different than the one he left behind. There were two main plot-lines traveling through “Novation.” The first involved the ramifications of Peter’s re-insertion into the timeline, and what his sudden arrival meant […]
This week’s episode of Fringe featured the team investigating a young boy that had somehow survived a deadly fungus that killed, and decomposed, those infected within hours. This episode took place “over-here”, and it is going to be interesting to see if the over-here/over-there episode pattern will keep going from last season, or if “our” […]
