FYI Fringe

[eoeleven]

Any one watching this show?

It is INSANE somehwere along the lines of LOST meets PRISON BREAK meets HOUSE meets X FILES

I cannot tell if I like it or not BUT I KNOW I cannot stop watching it

some of the sceens are just SICK

the old man is completely deranged but funnier than HELL without meaning to be at ALL

and the fag dude from Dawson's Creek is actually liking girls and a good actor

I watched the pilot... somehow, I missed the second episode was coming on last night... dang.

I don't yet. I understand exactly how you feel. I cannot call it a good show yet, but it's not a bad one either... I am middle of the road with it right now. I will give it a chance though, if, for no other reason, it is not another godforsaken hospital, cop, or lawyer show.

I am looking forward to the new SciFi series though... called Sanctuary... that shows previous have looked pretty slick... hopefully, the show is as good. starts Oct. 5, I think... maybe 3rd... something like that, anyway.

and probably because I am a mark sometimes for corny nostalgia, I may give Knight Rider one final shot... not sure about the Terminator series... it was good at first... but really... week after week of Terminator vs. Terminator, while the FBI gives chase? that got old for me in the first season run... hopefully, this thing has more to offer.

looks like they added a twist in the terminator thing but robot versus robot is kind of drool, so we will see what else comes of it

Brian Austin Green is kind of my hero right now, I mean









as for Fringe I am not sure where I am going to end up but I know I am watching it every week until I do

that is the one he knocked up, the other two he just had/has his way with early and often

the last one (Megan Fox of Transformer fame) has his name tatooed next to her girlie parts

as I said Brian Austin Green is kind of my hero right now

another week another OH MY FREAKING GOSH episode

I am hooked in guys, I cannot not watch this show

The old man is one of the funniest characters on TV and he NEVER tells a joke.

"Do you think you can steal these trasmission doctor?"

"I do not know but I would liek to try."

"and how would you do that?"

the straight faced and serious as hell

"do I have to keep him alive?"

dude it is not supposed to be funny AT ALL, but for some reason I am rolling on the floor like I am watching Bill Cosby Himself again for the first time.

[rich_one]

it is official. this show is GREAT. which scares me. because it is not a lawyer, cop (per se), or doctor show... is it destined for cancellation? do I want to love it?

ah well... I do... which is a bad omen...

[eoeleven]

it is worth watching just because it is SO different than everything else

but also there are some quality moments in it too

very well writen

Was there something from the 1st episode I need? And who do they work for anyway? Who was the lady at the end of the show yesterday? I know I saw her last week giving her the machine that will allow them to see the dead person's last image, but other than that, I gathered she is important, sort of like Cancer Man in X-files, but don't know how.

I'll fill you in tomorrow... it is getting late, and I am way too tired right this second.

I like the show though... which means you probably shouldn't get into it, because it'll be cancelled. lol...

[eoeleven]

After an international flight lands in Boston’s Logan Airport, its crew and passengers dead from a mysterious and gruesome plague, a team of investigators begins investigating the nature and source of the toxin causing the plague.

When Special Agent Olivia Dunham’s partner is infected by the same plague, she recruits Dr. Walter Bishop, a mentally unstable researcher in fringe science and his estranged son Peter in helping her to save his life.

They discover a cure to the manmade plague, but learn that the mass infection was but an experiment, and part of a larger mystery called "The Pattern".

Her newly healed partner betrays her, and might be involved with the Pattern, as well as one of the largest companies in the world, Massive Dynamic, headed by Bishop’s former lab partner.

~this is a brief recap I stole from WIKI

I will add (and as always there will be some research here for you Clarke)

Dr. Walter Bishop ~ mad scientist, absent professor whose creepy government experiements seemed to have caused some if not all of the mess. Think Dr. Frankenstein combined with a touch of Joseph Goebbels and House.

Peter Bishop ~ genius son of mad scientist uses his superior intellect to run confidence scams to get rich. is the only reason his dad was let out of the looney bin. Think Frank Abagnale Jr combined with Ferdinand Waldo Demara Jr

Agent Dunham ~ Half Dudley Do Right, Half Jack Bauer = FBI agent that was banging her partner who turns out was a spy. She was recruited to join HOMELAND SECURITY because of the way she went from loving her partner to hunting him down for being a criminal.

There is a major compnay named MASSIVE DYNAMIC started by Dr. Bishop's old lab partner.

the lady Nina Sharp is an employee of MASSIVE DYNAMIC whose own life was saved by the companys advanced science projects and who has a artifical fully aposable arm built by the company.

I think that is most of it. Rich please fill in what I left out.
