Fringe Dwellers Podcast: Episode 6

In the sixth Fringe Dwellers Podcast, Jen and Adele discuss the details of the newest Fringe episode, The Arrival. We tried a new recording program so this is the reason the levels are a little fishy (and for the lateness). Our intro was graciously provided by John Bailey. We had a great time discussing this fun episode with a very new feeling to it. Enjoy the show!

What Do You Think of Fringe's 3D Location Titles?

Flying over, under, by and through Fringe's three dimensional location titles has some fans cheering and others jeering. But the veracity of the latter has us wondering, is it just an exceptionally vocal minority of fans who dislike the 3D location motif, or do their protests represent a majority opinion?

What's your take on Fringe's embedded, reflective, 3D location titles?

Massive Dynamic Email

Massive Dynamic has begun sending out emails in response to filling out the Contact Us form on MassiveDynamic.com. The email, titled "Your Communication With Massive Dynamic," comes from massive@massivedynamic.com and legal@massivedynamic.com.

It's not much, but it just may be the start of something new. I think it is no coincidence that these emails are going out the day after Fringe got picked up for a full season. Bring on the ARG!

Fringe Picked Up By Fox For Full Season

TV Week is reporting that FOX has picked up FRINGE for a full season!

The network has ordered nine additional episodes of the sci-fi thriller, for a total of 22. The Bad Robot/Warner Bros. TV-produced series has averaged a 4.2/11 in adults 18-49 and 10.7 million total viewers since bowing last month, making it the top-rated new show of the season to date in the key demographic.

“We're having a blast working on this show with this great team of producers,” said Fox Entertainment President Kevin Reilly. “The series has really taken off creatively, and it's exciting to see that the audience is responding. We believe this is the first full season of many years to come.”

Is Fringe Getting Better? What About the Science?

The crowd over at TVbytheNumbers thinks so. They're decidedly bullish on Fringe:

House dominated the evening in terms of the youth demos, and Fringe won the demos for its hour and was second in demo performance only to House, though the House lead-in is definitely helping as Fringe slipped by about 800K viewers and more than 10% in the demos from the first half hour to the second.

fringe is getting better each week. fringe had its best episode last night, good to see it did well in the demo and hit also hit 10 million viewers, which it was unable to do last week. I think fringe will be fine, especailly with the demo it pulls in each week...

Meanwhile over at Popular Mechanics, Kate Schweitzer has filed another installment (her third) of Fringebusters, but makes no mention of Fringe's nod to fellow Popular Mechanics' Fringebuster, S.E. Kramer.

• The Fisher King was in charge of protecting the Holy Grail (and also a movie by Terry Gilliam)

Also at 9 EST, the easter egg hunt over Fringe Screencaps begins. The hunt is proving to be the most popular Fringe activity on Tuesdays. So much so, that we suspect it has something to do with making Fringe must see DVR TV.
