I don't know how I feel about this show. It's like I've seen it before or something. I liked some of the gore, that was fun. I think I need 3 more episodes to really decide if I'm going to continue watching. My fave was the lady with the robotic arm.
The lead actress reminds me of Cate Blanchett. MyeternalgrattitudetoPhil&Val.Herman said "We want sweaty truckers at the truck stop! We want cigar puffing men that look like they wanna beat the living daylights out of us" Val"sporking is spooning with benefits" | |

The lead actress reminds me of Cate Blanchett. You have seen it before. It was called X-FILES. Anna Torv and Cate Blanchett are both Aussies. Both from Melbourne actually.  | |

X-Files was one of those shows that I knew was fun to watch but never got around to it. I only caught a couple of the episodes. You're right, very similar.

I watched and liked it but it was another version of the x-files. "

I missed it because of my insane school schedule. My boss said it was pretty good. I'll catch the rerun on the internet. | |

It will reair at 8pm Sunday, Sept. 14 for TWO HOURS. Unlike the premiere episode from Tuesday, the Sunday re-air will have a preview of the 24 movie that will air in November, the "Day The Earth Stood Still" preview movie trailer, and an extended scene that was not included in the Fringe premiere.

Apparently, this was a bit of a ratings disappointment. Under 10 million viewers. Not good for a show they pushed really hard for months. | |

From Entertainment Weekly: 'Fringe' debuts to decent ratings while '90210' tanks
Sep 10, 2008, 01:52 PM | by Tanner Stransky Leading up to the premiere of Fringe, Fox seemed to put nearly all of its fall marketing dollars into J.J. Abrams' risky sci-fi show. Along with The CW's 90210 (also airing on Tuesday nights), it was one of the season's most-hyped new bows. So did it pay off in the ratings last night? Well...sorta. Over its 90-minute premiere, Fringe averaged 9 million viewers, according to overnight ratings. Not too shabby, for sure, but the suits over at Fox probably aren't dancing in their offices today, either. A double-digit premiere would have been much more stir-worthy. To the show's credit, though, it did improve on its audience every half hour, which is a good sign (because it means viewers weren't getting bored and tuning out), but the real test is still yet to come. Will fans be compelled to come back for the next installment? Will Fox juggernaut House give it a boost? What happens in two weeks when ABC's Dancing With the Stars results show and CBS's The Mentalist debut? (To weigh in on the Fringe series premiere, head over to PopWatch. Tuesday night's other big story brings us back to 90210. The second episode drew just 3.3 million viewers — down a startling 30 percent from its 4.7 million debut last week. Most shows drop off a bit after their premieres, but anything beyond 10 or 15 percent is cause for serious concern. Maybe fans weren't as excited by the return of Jackie Taylor (Ann Gillespie) this week as they were by Brenda Walsh (Shannon Doherty) last week? http://hollywoodinsider.e...210'+tanks | |

I dig this show, I hope it sticks around. | |

The second episode was better than the first. Extending the premiere episode to 90 minutes made it drag in spots a little I thought. | |

i watched the second show and liked it. but i SWEAR i've seen that pituitary gland plotline used before. exactly the same plot, just about. can't remember where though... x-files maybe | |

Digging the show. I love this type of stuff. | |

it held my attention but it didn't suck me in the same way the first episodes of "lost" or "alias" did.
i think the lead actress looks like sarah cracknell of saint etienne. only i think sarah would do a better job depicting someone stuck in an iso tank with LSD in her system. but that's just me being nitpicky. | |
