Gone for about a month Fringe returns to FOX's Friday night line up with some creepy Ocean's 13 inspired seduction. No Clooney or Pitt, but Fringe's version of the fictional 'gilroy' from the 2007 crime caper.
Fringe is a lot like its fellow Bad Robot produced show, Lost, in that they are notorious for answering a question with multiple questions instead of answers. It's a technique that makes audiences both scratch their heads and keep tuning in for more mystery.
Some say less is more. Others say bigger is better. In the case of this week's Fringe episode "A Better Human Being" both statements ring true in the best ways possible with small story twists leading to huge possibilities.
Fringe may be many things, but formulaic is not one of them.
Cars abandoned on the side of the road. Small town homes and stores emptied. People that seem to be infected begin to attack their loved ones. The only remaining survivors pry for the government to rescue them. The Walking Dead is back early folks....
Well it only took 4 seasons but the oh so lovable Jasika Nicole finally gets her due on Fringe with her own Astro episode.
Mysterious bald people with abnormal abilities? Check. Characters sometimes submerged in water to focus their minds? Check. Precogs able to predict deaths before they happen? Check. Tom Cruise using a jetpack? Umm nope.
Its an expression used when those at war with each other yet share a common threat. Setting aside their differences or conflict and joining together to stop a mutual adversary.
It's been eight long weeks, but Fox's Fringe is finally back, folks.
Ever heard the expression 'kids should been seen not heard'. Well for poor Eugene he wasn't either and it's his own pigments, not his parents, to blame for his inconspicuousness.
Time loops make for a humorous way to spend February 2nd but maybe not if it happened to you on any other day. This week's Fringe puts it's own unique spin on time anomalies with everything from time loops, bubbles, chambers, and displacements.
