Fringe

What did you guys think?

It's cheesey, but I can tell I'm already addicted.

It's like a Twin Peaks/Lost/X-Files orgy!

I caught the pilot screening at Comic-Con, and actually liked it better the second time around. I haven't seen Twin Peaks, and have only picked up X-Files by osmosis, but I recognize your comparison as valid. As with True Blood, I'm fascinated by the concept alone, and combining that with talents I like (J.J. Abrams and Josh Jackson (when he's not in a teen soap opera)) means I'll continue watching.

Also: "The only thing better than a cow is a human. Unless you want milk. Then you really need a cow."

I think the whole show is a rip-off of the X-files. I think if they called it X-files 2008, people would be assy. But with a new title, its a new show.

I loved it.

If they make the blonde girl a lesbian, it will be the best show ever.

fun, if a tad (okay, more than a tad) formulaic. it's X-Files with an eye towards futurism.

I guess I'm the only one that loved the location titles!

I liked how the camera pans into the letter "O"..

Neat, as for the show it was just okay.

That first scene was something out of a horror movie. Awesome. What's the deal with JJ Abrams and planes, anyway?

I think this show has serious potential if they maintain an underlying mythology like Rimbaldi or DHARMA.

It's was OKAY. Has potential. Some of the plot contrivances drove me NUTS.

I'm watching it right now. I like it so far.

they will. it's called "the Pattern". apparently, someone or something is performing paranormal experiments all around the globe, feeding off of and contributing to the ever-increasing rate of technological advancement.

I am surprised they can say "Uh oh. I just pissed my pants." on TV.

I could have done without the romance aspect of the plot. I mean, her trying to save her lover's life is a perfectly viable plotline, but there's zero emotional resonance when you know neither of them and the establishment of their "great love" is a couple minutes conversation in bed before the show moves on to flashier things. Skip that sort of thing in the pilot. Finale, maybe. Or a season or two later.

i'm surprised they don't say it more often.

Yeah. "Just a little squirt" was probably the best part of the show.

I thought the first episode was good. It depends on how they take it over the next few episodes before I decide if it's good enough to continue watching. The potential is there.

Second episode tonight! Let's see how good this show is.

i thought the first episode was pretty good, but the second was just horrible.

i'll give it one more episode, but if it's anything like the second, i'm done with it.

It's pretty corny and formulaic, but somewhat interesting. I'm more into all the weird pseudoscience bullshit they talk about than any kind of plot or character development. It does seem like J.J. Abrams is finally starting to spread himself a bit thin, though.

Pretty silly, but, eh, I might watch it a little while longer to see if it's going anywhere.

Pacey is funny... I wonder if he'll get it on with that agent chick.

Is that dude a zombie computer?

lol..yea..but I'm still enjoying it a bit..I'll give it another few episodes.
