I love Fringe and I love Olivia. Fox will cancel it just like they did Terminator and a ton of other good shows.
 
they should cancel it after the big showdown between the two worlds. anything more than that will be like season 2 of heroes

season 2 of heroes was during the writer's strike, I don't think we can blame the downfall of that series as simply running out of steam after the first season
 
The problem with fringe is FOX. They keep shuffling around episodes and when they will air and it loses viewers in the process.
 
I actually liked the first season with all the weird fake science stuff. I thought the weird sub-but-actually-a-continuity-plot was more annoying as it felt tacked on (especially at the end).

Walter is probably the best character in the show though 😛.
 
i like sifis and i loved xfiles. fringe is one of the worst shows ive ever seen. the acting is horrible, but most people dont notice it because contrasted to the other shows its about on par.

i couldnt even watch whatever episode i was watching the other night. it was beyond stupid. i cant imagine why anyone likes that show, maybe its because they havent seen anything else?

Yea that's what I'm afraid of too 🙁

It was a good episode that at first seemed silly regarding Peter's fondess for the other Olivia but then you see how that plays out in the end with her reading that note from Simon and the warning from "the bowling guy" about which universe will survive.

I like Anna Torv's natural looks but when she dresses up and has the right makeup she's really quite juicy. :awe:

Next weeks preview looks amazing.
 
I really like the show, but last nights episode was boring.

FWIW the Sarah Connor Chronicles was one of the worst shows ever. The concept had potential, but the show was just absolutely terrible and deserved to be canned.

I blame the first Friday in like 2 months that a blizzard hasn't been bearing down on the North East.

I'm usually at home watching it on Friday nights and getting ready for an early night since I work on Saturday mornings, but I celebrated the OK weather by going out last night. guy I've been dating invited me to go bowling with him and a couple of his friends. it was my first time meeting his friends, so it seemed like a big deal that I didn't want to blow off.
 
I remember watching the first 3-4 episodes of this show when it first came out, and thinking it wouldn't last more than half a season. I'm shocked it's still on the air.


I also miss The Sarah Connor Chronicles.
 
all this Peter/Oliva emo-drama makes me want to turn the channel... I can't believe they're setting up the entire season to revolve around it.

Fox loves to ruin good shows.

I only watched a few episodes the first season of Fringe. I thought it was OK, and when they introduced the white face people or whatever, I could see it heading towards elaborate realms of crazy that I just didn't want to deal with--so I stopped watching.

But I guess if you like whatever TV show, for whatever reason, one should always approach a Fox broadcast with skepticism. They will rip it from you just as you get into it.
