Fringe

Anyone else who watches this show?

Scific stuff doesn't normally appeal to me but this is humorous and adrenaline filled, just watched the first two eps today going to continue tomorrow but looks decent so far.

KingEric7 · 11th October 2008, 20:01

I'll probably end up watching this; it looks decent.

Ekeke · 11th October 2008, 20:05

It has a stupid, needless and tacky twist at the end of every episode. Was almost worth watching till the first episode done that.

Hugely over rated. Like other American shows that have come out in the past few years.

MelvinYeo · 12th October 2008, 16:16

Just watched the third ep and dlling the fourth one now.

It's not really deep in that sense but it's good entertainment which is what I look for in a show first and foremost. Every ep so far has been decent enough to keep me watching. The mad professor is good for a few laughs in each ep.

Been watching Fringe and it seems OK to me....anyone watching it might also enjoy Sanctuary.

Sanctuary

He's a brilliant actor.

Sanctuary

Tried to watch the web episodes of Sanctuary about a year but quality was way too poor. Might give it another try now. I like Fringe so far.

I love all his work

Yes, he was Denathor in Lord of the Rings, he must have a thing for playing mental people

Fringe is the best tv show at the moment!
I was about to make a thread, then used my brain and used the search engine.

Its twist after twist stuff!

vanthaman · 27th October 2008, 20:09

saw first 3 episodes, dont want to watch any more, the acting is awful

KingEric7 · 27th October 2008, 20:13

I'm really enjoying this.

Marmite, ey?

gaffs · 27th October 2008, 22:59

Its ok. Its very far out. The first 3 episodes have been a little sameish though.

Alex · 27th October 2008, 23:00

It's decent

MelvinYeo · 28th October 2008, 10:53

The last episode was good I think, like the scifi stuff though very interesting especially how the professor does it

Which ruins the whole thing. Needless, stupid twists. Ever heard the phrase "too much of a good thing" ? Fringe is proof on purchase. It's tacky and lame.

cesc's_mullet · 28th October 2008, 11:37

fringe is a piece of shit.

mind you i only loosely watched the first episode, but the way the characters talk/interract made me want to stab my eyes out.

Alex · 12th November 2008, 06:58

Just watched the latest episode, it seems to be a cheaper, darker,more far fetched, less interesting version of ALIAS. Man I was all about Jennifer Garner when that show came out even have season 3 on DVD for some reason, think it's my sisters. But watched a few episodes this weekend and could nt get over how much better ALIAS was than this show

Ekeke · 12th November 2008, 07:05

Wow. Thats really saying something.

Alex · 12th November 2008, 07:09

Come on Alias was pretty good, at least it was in hi def since fucking way back when that was one thing I noticed about it in like 2001 or 2 was that it was in HD I was like I have to watch this and I love Jennifer Garner haha

MadDogg · 12th November 2008, 11:28

It's a fairly good show, I'd rate it at the same level as the CSI shows for myself. Good, but not exactly a problem if I miss it. And in Fringe's case, in Australia it's unfortunately on at the same time as two, better shows, so it misses out.

Actually, I'm not sure if they are even showing it here anymore. I think it was House and Criminal Minds that it was caught between, which is the same mistake that they are making with The Mentalist now. Putting average/good shows on at the same time as two good/great shows - then they wonder why nobody watches it.

cesc's_mullet · 12th November 2008, 11:52

been pulled off air (down here) already, i think

Fox have commissioned a full season (22 episodes) of Fringe.

Considering that it's FOX it probably won't be much more than that.
