Anybody catch the Pilot episode? From JJ Abrams creator of Lost. I loved the first episode and definitely cannot wait to see the upcoming ones. Man Tuesday nights are gonna be a night in for me.....House 8-9 and Fringe 9-10

It's just OK. I had higher expectations because of Lost, but it's okay.

I cant get into it. I watched the last two episodes and it didnt do anything for me. Personally I think its an X-files ripoff and thats a travesty in my books.

i haven't seen this yet but i'll prob snag the dvds after season 1

I thought the pilot was pretty horrible. if you put all the cliches in sci-fi/horror history into a hat and took out 3 at a time you could probably write for this show.

Eleventh Hour did a better job of being the X-files ripoff. The writers of Fringe can take a lesson or two from how the show was structured. Unfortunately Eleventh Hour comes on at the same time as Life On Mars which looked pretty good to me last night.

Meh. I like it.

Wyman decided to take the final 13 episodes and "make a saga. I want to give them a massive, huge feature experience where they can follow Walter's journey from episode one all the way to 13 and are really invested in it by the time it gets there. And Olivia and Peter and Etta and everybody who we've come to love," he said.

The fifth season, which premieres tonight at 9 p.m. ET, follows last season's "Letters of Transit," which showed a future in the year 2036 ruled by the Observers, where Peter and Olivia's daughter Etta was a freedom fighter who freed Peter, Walter and Astrid from being trapped in amber for more than 20 years. Olivia's fate remained uncertain.

Fringe showrunner reveals surprising truth about Amber's origins

Before the finale, we can expect every character to make a drastic sacrifice for the war. Actor Joshua Jackson revealed, "The place that they're trying to take the characters at the end, at least for me, seems like a satisfying and in some ways almost logical sort of necessary ending for each one of these characters."

Fringe exec confesses controversial plotline he regrets the most.

Quote:

Like the whole [season four] disappearance of Peter, I learned a great deal from that. It didn't work. People didn't like it and felt it was sort of stupid and didn't get it. I totally agree. I look back at it and consider it one of our missteps. It didn't work as well as we all thought it would. We liked it and thought it was cool. But no matter how many times we told people, 'No, Peter is still part of the show. Come on? It's Peter Bishop, he's still part of the show,' everybody was saying, 'Peter is not on the show so I'm not watching anymore!' They didn't get it. But maybe in retrospect when people watch the series from beginning to end they'll realize why thematically that was so important to do. People may or may not get what we did, but it is what it is. It's not a pizza. You don't get to order what you want on it. [Laughs]

For what's it's worth, here's how Wyman describes the series finale:

Quote:

"It's definitely the biggest season finale we've ever had. It's the most expensive.... It's massive, really big. I wanted to go out like, 'Wow, how did they do that?' I wanted to make sure I handled [the action element] and the emotions with equal import."
