Fringe 315 Commercial: "Subject 13"

Here's the latest Fringe (and Kitchen Nightmares) commercial for "Subject 13".

Head over to the FringeTelevision YouTube channel (and click the "pop out" button) to watch it in full-sized HD.

Tweet-along with Fringe Executive Producers During "Subject 13"

The LIVE Tweet-along event will take place on this Fringe, February 25th, during both east and west coast feeds of the Fringe episode "Subject 13". Fringe Executive Producers Jeff Pinkner (@JPFringe) and J.H. Wyman (@JWFringe) will "join you to share insider info and answer questions from Fringe fans. It's almost like communicating with the alternate universe. Only cooler."

During the last Tweet-Along event with John Noble, you could submit you questions using the #FringeLiveTweet tag. I suspect it will probably work the same way this time as well, but be sure to check back here or at bit.ly/FringeTweet tomorrow for the full details.

UPDATE: The event has already changed. Jeff Pinkner and J.H. Wyman will only be available during the east coast feed, and replacing them for the west coast feed will be Jasika Nicole!

Fringe Easter Egg Roundup for "6B"

Here are some recurring "Easter egg" screen shots from the Fringe episode 6B:

The Observer can be walking past the Rosencrantz building, right at the beginning of the episode.

Hidden Glyph: I didn't see any hidden Fringe symbols in this episode. It may not be an "every episode" Easter egg, like the Observer or Next Episode Clues. Or maybe I just missed it... if you find something, let me know!

Next Episode Clue: In the last episode "Immortality", the license plate of the second victim is APT6B. In this episode, Alice Merchant lived in Apt 6B, which is also the title of the episode.

Fringe: Return To The Scene Of The Crime

Fox has now released a high-quality 720p version of Monday's TV Line exclusive video: "The Return".

Review-'6B'

How do I love thee '6B'? Let me count the ways?

I can almost picture the writers' brainstorming meeting for this episode. Someone says it'll be a Valentine's week airing and there's discussion about what that means. Inevitably all the forms of love come into conversation and Shakespeare's name is bandied about. Or, knowing the genius of executive producers Jeff Pinkner and JH Wyman, this episode which came to be known as 6B was built into the story arc in rough form way back in Season 1.

That would definitely not surprise me.

'6B' is a bittersweet tale of love and loss, and I daresay, probably the heaviest dose of foreshadowing we've been given since 'Brown Betty' in Season 2. Having seen '6B' three times now(that's not much for me) I think this episode was brilliantly written. It's also a none too subtle reminder of where Fringe is right now and where it is headed. The blue universe has a new gigantic elephant in the room we can label the threat of holes, not soft spots as Olivia is corrected by Walter. No one's been giving too much thought as to the decay of our side, until now when the threat looms large and fresh in Brooklyn, a location very close to the first and huge vortex that formed in the East River Over There. I guess we should feel lucky, their vortex began in 1989, so the whole(pun intended) process is beginning more slowly on our side.

Fringe Now: Alternate Universe Articles - Smiley

The Fox "Fringe Now" website has a new "Alternate Universe Article", which shows a news article from the Red universe, on one of those ubiquitous tablet devices.

The article is titled "Smiley - The saber-toothed tiger has been genetically resurrected.":

The New San Diego Zoo is creating a habitat for "Smiley," the first genetically resurrected saber-toothed tiger. Smilodon fatalis, which thrived in the Pleistocene epoch over 12,000 years ago, will be available for public view later this year. The zoo hopes it will be joined by an American mastodon by 2014.

It's interesting to note that the zoo is in "new" San Diego, implying something happened to the old one. It was likely destroyed when half of California went missing.

Fringe Ratings 314: 6B

A little good news for Fringe fans: ratings for '6B' were UP last week! According to Entertainment Weekly:

Fringe averaged 4.1 million viewers and a 1.5 preliminary adults 18-49 rating, up one tenth — or 7% — from last week. That’s still a ways off from the hearty 1.9 rating the show posted its first two weeks in its new Friday time slot, but any increase is a positive sign. (Perhaps fans heard Joshua Jackson’s message that they better start watching on Fridays if they want the show to return).

Fox actually tied usual Friday leader CBS to win the night, helped by Fringe lead-in Kitchen Nightmares (3.9 million, 1.7) rising 13%. That’s helpful for Fringe too, the “who won the night” boast is valued by all networks.

While most Thursday shows hit season lows the night before, several Friday programs posted gains along with Fringe.

Hopefully this means the message is hitting home - please watch Fringe live on Fridays if you can, or at least DVR it and watch as soon as possible. Joshua Jackson says:

We really need our Fringe fans to tune in and watch us on Fridays ... It is going to take the people that like the show to watch the show and .. show their support if they want to see us stick around for another season.”

UPDATE: The Live + 7 DVR ratings are in for "Concentrate and Ask Again", and Fringe topped all shows for "Post Airdate 18-49 Rating % Increase from DVR Viewing", bumping Fringe's 1.6 to a 2.5 — a 56% increase! Now if we could just get all those people to watch live...

Fringe 315 "Subject 13" Canadian Promo

Here's the canadian promo for this friday's episode.

Fringe Review: 6B

“What if this is not about physics, but about people?”

That quote? The rules of the game. How should we understand those rules? That is still up for grabs. This episode had me anguished at first, but it is nonetheless a vital clue to larger goals of the show. Are those goals in line with my expectations? Only time will tell.
