Fringe Season 2

TELEVISION Specific Shows
1

I know there is a thread for this but I couldn’t find it. Anyway, I just saw a commercial for it and realized FRINGE starts Thursday at 9 PM.

I’m excited for the new season, but it will be weird that this is on Thursdays. Also the fact that FlashForward seems like it will be on Thursday also. So JJ abrams’s will have 2 shows competing against each other? weird.

anyway, I cant wait to watch.

Yeah, do I watch FRINGE the next day online, or the NBC comedies I’d normally be checking out?

Peter: I hope you’re not planning on watching both Fringe and FlashForward, because they’re both airing on Thursday nights. I wish they taught advanced T.V. signal re-engineering at MIT - which is where I went to school, by the way. Olivia: [Stares in confused anger] … Walter: I have just the device for this. It’s a personal time travel portal which allows the user’s consciousness to travel exactly two hours back in time, allowing for the viewing of multiple television programs. Hold on while I pull it out of my ass. Olivia: [Stares in bemused frustration] … Peter: Jeez, Walter… TOO MUCH IN-FOR-MAY-SHUN!!!

Seriously, I do like the show. More Nimoy, please.

Ahhh, finally real shows are coming back. I’m excited to see where they take Fringe this season. Maybe Peter will start being useful again.

6

I seriously hope they change the commercial format, no more Fringe Returning in 60/90 seconds etc.

Thanks for the heads up. I would n’t have known this was returning otherwise. I seriously have seen no ads for this at all and I watch a lot of TV.

So, FRINGE is on against SUPERNATURAL? Whose genius idea was that? Next thing you know, LOST will be on Thursdays at 9 too.

Thursday night is the new Monday night.

I remember when you could actually have a show you like come on one night per week. Now the bigwigs just pile up the good shows against each other so ratings will kill 3 shows shown on the 5 networks. Its a thinning of the herd.

This show got better after its awful, awful pilot?

13

It became a fantastic show after they figured out what they were doing.

14

I wouldn’t call it ‘fantastic’ but it’s generally entertaining.

15

The show is kind of amazing, depsite the actors, the plot, the music, the directing…

The effects are nice. But that blonde woman cannot be serious about her acting skills. Nobody is that monotonous and boring. And Pacey is just a grating idiot.

16

John Noble as Walter is GREAT.

FlashForward isn’t a J.J. Abrams show, is it?

18

It’s a David Goyer show actually.

19

I can’t wait. The ballsy and exciting way they ended Season 1 was fantastic.

SPOILERS ALLOWED FROM HERE ON OUT SINCE THE SHOW IS IN THE NEW SEASON

LAST WARNING

  • I still think Walter from the other world is the main bad guy and coming back for his kidnapped son.
  • My biggest concern is how they will keep the show “grounded”. Now that the Feebs know that there is an alternate universe, how to travel between it, etc. how does the US Govt not get involved now and take over due to the security crisis this represents?
  • I want to see more monster of the week episodes. Love the wolfman thingy who took out the airplane.

I’m interested to see what happens now… isn’t like half the cast gone? Just Walter, Peter and the FBI chick left?

It’s opposite Supernatural so you know… this won’t be watched live but it might get done before the Weekend.
