Fringe

I'm about a decade or more late into watching the show. This show has everything you could need, comedy, sorrow, action and ideas that are just extraordinary I don't think I've watched an episode yet that I truly disliked. The cast works so well with each other and their personalities are so different and defined that I'm so grateful that I stumbled across this true gem of a show it's unfortunate that there aren't more of these types of shows out there anymore. Admittedly I had a hard time when we went to the alternate universe at first but then even that started growing on me I'm very grateful to this show for giving me hours of entertainment.

I Saw this on TV when it first aired. Must have been at least 15 years ago. Loved it, like I loved all Canadian Scifi in that time period but would only have rated it 7 stars. Now I have watched some episods every day and I'm into half the third season. Unlike a lot of "older" tv-shows this one still hold its ground and it keeps getting better for every new season. Unlike my 15 years younger self I actually love Anna Torvs acting. She is great. (I used to think she was stiff, but she was just before her time haha). What hasn't changed is the superb acting of John Noble who play doctor Bishop!!. Joshua Jackson (Bishop Jr) & Jasika Nicole (Astrid) are also solid actors. The plot is very thought trough and the episodes are (mostly) stand alone but with a thick red line going through everything. If u committed, that Red line will give you a fantastic insight in the shows character, so for your own good.. Watch the entire show within a few months... Then it will be a ten star experience!

There's an abundance of great writing, incredible performances and excellent execution on this show, but John Noble (playing the (to put it mildly) eccentric scientist Walter Bishop) steals every scene he's in. His performance is one for the ages, and it's up there with Christopher Lloyd's Dr. Emmett Brown and Terry O'Quinn's John Locke. A pure joy!

Fringe is one of the better sci-fi series that I've ever seen. I'm a huge fan of this genre and have a lot of favorites so to say this is one of them is a huge compliment from someone that's seen a lot of them. It's about FBI Special Agent Olivia Dunham (Anna Torv) as she's assigned to the bureau's Fringe Division, which investigates unusual crimes and occurrences. Assisting her is scientist Dr. Walter Bishop (John Noble), his son Peter Bishop (Joshua Jackson) and FBI Junior Agent Astrid Farnsworth (Jasika Nicole). They go on to discover connections to their own past and to a parallel universe. Fringe is always entertaining and never boring. That's the most you can ask from a good series. I can't recommend this show enough.

FBI agent Olivia Dunham (Anna Torv) is forced to work with unstable scientist Dr. Walter Bishop (John Noble). She recruits his estranged son Peter Bishop (Joshua Jackson) to help understand him. Astrid Farnsworth (Jasika Nicole) is a junior FBI agent. As the strange cases are investigated, they may be connected to a global company called Massive Dynamic run by Nina Sharp (Blair Brown).

This is yet another JJ Abrams TV show. It is starting to become like opening another Starbucks. This starts like a copy of the X-files. Slowly the X-files retread story lines morphed into an incredible multi-verse, apocalyptic, time traveling story-web. I'm glad that they were able to stay on the air for 5 seasons to fully flesh out the story.
