Now it looks amusing

[B-Runner]

i'm looking forward to this and dollhouse most of the new shows this next tv season

[Spideristic]

Just watched the 2 hour pilot (around 1hr 20 mins total without commercials). The show was quite entertaining and definitely has potential, something similar to say X-Files with little more action and will probably have more amount of sci-fi in upcoming episodes. And since this is a production by J.J. Abrams it probably might get green lighted for a whole season.

[Ujio]

The Pilot is pretty good, but the lead Female, IMO, is very annoying. I don't like the woman who plays her, there is just something about her that turns me off from this show. Joshua Jackson is awesome though, and so is the father. Great little thing going between them two. And, fortunately, JJ Abrams started Lost, so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.

[peoplesfrank]

I set this whole series to record on my dvr but I know next to nothing about it. JJ helped make it, that's my sole reason for taping it.

[Sander.]

This is going to be good. And I base that on the fact that JJ's name is on it.

Who isn't at this point?

[MovieMan8877445]

I Think This Looks Pretty Good, I'm Looking Foward To It.

[Ujio]

I thought the Pilot was great, I downloaded the Screener of it, it was pretty good. Good to see Joshua Jackson in a new show.

[HYPNoBRECKY]

Yep, I'm watching or recording this every Tuesday on FOX. It's a great concept with fringe/pseudo science and the patterns... Cool show.:thumbup:

[JoeyLostDharma]

Bump. Anyone still watching this? It's pretty awesome.
Only been a few weak episodes.
Can't wait for the boxset to come out, because I've forgotton so much.

[Fruitosaurus]

I'm watching. Think it's pretty cool. By the by, what are your thoughts on the snake/bat/worm (correct me if I'm wrong) thing? When its larvae burst out of the dead guys chest, it scared my sister and me quite badly, and my sister refuses to watch "an episode with a monster in it". Did anyone watch the finale?

[Punisher]

J.J. Abram's rocks! I'm glad Slusho made an appearance in a Fringe episode. Since this thread is kinda about J.J. Abrams, has anyone seen Star Trek?

[Fruitosaurus]

I have! Man, was that a great movie! Zachary Quinto (lol Sylar Spock) was absolutely perfect for the role of Spock, and the redshirt made us laugh

[Punisher]

How did Chris Pine do as Kirk? Sorry, just wanna hear your thoughs on the movie.

[Fruitosaurus]

I liked Chris as Kirk, he did a good job "being" Kirk

[JoeyLostDharma]

What did people think of season 1 as a whole? I thought it was really good. Not many weak episodes.
Looking forward to the dvd.

[Cloverfield]

I never got a chance to watch it but as J.J is my favourite producer / director I will definately be catching this series.

[JoeyLostDharma]

Yeah man, I highly recommend it.
I love JJ too. Any news on Cloverfield 2?

[SuicideBooth]

A great show! The season finale was awesome!
Peter is my favorite among the characters. :)

[Cloverfield]

Yeah man, I highly recommend it.

Not really but it should only be a couple of years away.

[JoeyLostDharma]

Cool! Can't wait for it.

[Fruitosaurus]

I did like Season 1, can't wait for Season 2

[SuicideBooth]

Same here. The grave scene with Walter Bishop in the season finale was kind of sad when you realise what really has happened. I'm definitely sold for the next season.

[JoeyLostDharma]

Yeah, great finale.

[Fruitosaurus]

I agree,
it is sad knowing the Peter of this universe has died. I wonder what happened when the Walter from the other universe discovered his son went missing?

[cinco]

I have seen the first 11 episodes of season 1 now.
It's starting to get interesting. :)

[Acid Eco]

^
episode 10 is the start of something magical :)

Bound is probably a top 5 episode for me

[cinco]

What scared me the most was the moment in season 9 when John looked at her in the dinner during the dreamscape-sequence.

[Acid Eco]

oh yeah

I thought he was going to attack her or something, after-life can be very scary...

[cinco]

That guy who was locked up also plays in Mad Men.

[Acid Eco]

I know;

it was nice to see a familiar face

[cinco]

I knew Joshua Jackson already. :)

So, I forgot, what were your two favorite S1-episodes?

[Acid Eco]

"Inner Child" and "The Road Not Taken"

although I don't think you'll like Inner Child, as it's more of a case-of-the-week thing - the other episode is very exciting :)

[cinco]

"The Road Not Taken"



Is that where the parallell universe stuff starts?

[Acid Eco]

yes :)

[Fotane]

Anyone catch the season 4 opener? It was quite a cool episode, but a bit crappy for the season starter. Kinda needed more explaining of how things are going to work.

[Locke]

Ive only seen the first season.

[cinco]

Seen first and second season. At the end of November I can buy season 3.

[Acid Eco]

fyi I'll be buying season 3 at the end of October ;)

[Fotane]

Ah well I won't spoil any of it if most of you aren't there yet, but what season 3 ended at I expected abit more from the season 4 opener. Maybe I'm just being abit impatient though.

[cinco]

Well... remember how season 2 only started to answer stuff regarding the S1-finale somewhere in the middle of the season?

This is very true. Overall it was quite a cool episode.
And it looks like Lincoln Lee will be a proper main character this season which is good, I like him. Both versions of him.

(cinco said the same thing, and my browser didn't refresh)

[cinco]

Other people here who watch Fringe?

[EdgeCrusher]

[Locke]

Ive only seen the first season i think.

[cinco]

I've seen season 1 and season 2 and if you like season 1, keep watching because it gets better. :)

[Fotane]

And season 3 is better still :cool:

[SuicideBooth]

I watched Season 1 when it began but somehow I never got around to season 2. Is it still good after season 1?

[SuicideBooth]
