Anyone else watch this show? I just finished the first season and I'm hooked.

Too bad Fox moved it to Fridays, which will probably lead to it being canceled far too soon.

I only saw the first couple of episodes awhile ago. It was alright, too much of an X-Files rip-off but I enjoyed every scene with John Noble that I wished he would have been the lead. Maybe I'll continue with it, but for the moment I already have a bunch of TV shows I'm watching.

"I thought you guys were talking about a show called "Fridge". Aw, man."

Agree with you on John Noble, MP. Can't for the life of me figure out how he hasn't been nominated for an Emmy.

Really? I thought he would have been cause IIRC he stole every scene he was in.

I seen the previews and that's it!

just looking at the previews of each upcoming episodes while I am watching FOX, it just reminds me too much of the X-Files

and that new show Terra Nova looks too much like the short lived tv series a few years ago, about some scientist that end up in a parallel universe on earth with dinosaurs and a hot blonde cavewoman,

I can't remember the name of it right now!

He really does. It's quite baffling that he hasn't at least gotten a nomination.

Anna Torv does quite well herself, too. She's played something like five different characters on the show.

There are similarities, obviously, but "Fringe" is a little more grounded in science and "reality" (a term I use loosely) than "X-Files."

Put simply, there are no aliens in "Fringe." Everything in "Fringe" is the result of science, whether it be from a parallel universe or our "prime" universe.
