J.J. Abrams' new show Fringe premiered tonight on Fox. Overall, it was pretty good, although I could have done without yet another pro-torture message from a Fox show. There's a website for Massive Dynamic, the mysterious corporation mentioned in the show. The website includes several email addresses, a contact form, and a phone number. If you call the contact number, 1-877-867-7396, you'll be told that all representatives are busy. You can leave a message and are promised that they'll get back to you. Another website possibly linked to the show is Glowing Monkeys, which is a blog focusing on real world, "fringe science." The best fansite I've found so far is FringeTelevision.com, where I found the screencap posted above. Anyone else enjoy the show?

Good luck Fringe.
Time to watch The Cleaner =]
Seriously, I for first episode it was good.
I loved that first scene with the airplane. Pretty darn gross & awesome when the guy throws up on the stewardess.. and then that pilot's jaw gooing off.
I think it has alot of potential to be another big hit if hopefully FOX gives it a chance.
I'm not one to shy away from the suspension of belief when it allows me to enjoy a show ("24", "X Files", etc.) but this was beyond ridiculous. Bad, bad stuff. And full of "right wing" messages and attitudes -- pro-torture, pro-surveillance, etc.
I *might* give it another chance in the future, but it's not likely...
Horrible writing and acting.
Consider yourself lucky that you missed the ending.
After all that effort to save her partner... he turns out to be the bad guy!
Did M. Night Shyamalan have a hand in this?
Too many cliches, horrible acting especially by the guy who played the imprisoned mad scientist (his asking for ginger ale was supposed to be quirky and funny, but it just seemed forced), and the plot wasn't intriguing. I do like the idea of fringe science, and the only part that interested me was when Matthew Abbadon tried recruiting the Olivia character by showing her some strange cases, and that is partly the only reason I'll be tuning in next week.
Almost every other show there is has pro-abortion messages, pro-divorce messages, pro-adultery messages, pro-teen sex messages, pro-multiple sex partner messages, pro-me me me me messages, pro-church hating messages, pro-atheist messages... The list goes on.
Are you offended by all those other messages too?
