Fringe Sneak Peek #3 - 317: "Stowaway"

Here's a brand new sneak peek for the episode of tomorrow night.

'Fringe' execs 'positive about renewal'

Jeff Pinkner Joel Wyman Fringe

The executive producers of Fringe have claimed that they are feeling positive about the show's chances of renewal.

Jeff Pinkner told The Daily Beast that Fox continues to support the sci-fi drama, despite moving it to an unpopular Friday night slot.

"Creatively, Fox has been unbelievably supportive," he insisted. "We have exceeded their expectations on Friday nights."

He added: "Having said that, who knows what the future brings? But, all the signs we're getting are incredibly positive… that we have several seasons of storytelling left."

Co-producer Joel Wyman also suggested that he and Pinkner had never expected Fringe to appeal to a mass audience.

"We knew when we set out that this would not be a massive, popular appeal show, because it's a show that requires you to sit forward and not sit back while you're watching," he suggested. "It's a show that demands attention and thought and rewards it."

The pair previously admitted that they are unconcerned about the show's ratings. The most recent episode attracted 3.76m viewers on Friday night.

Fringe continues on Fridays at 9/8c on Fox.

Fringe Sneak Peek #2 317: "Stowaway"

Thanks to TVline.com, here is a new sneak peek for tomorrow's episode "Stowaway".

Plus, Anna Torv gave them her opinion about her "new" role:

The actress — who has already been tasked this season with juggling the dual roles of Olivia and Fauxlivia — recently admitted to TVLine’s Matt Mitovich that adding a third personality to her repertoire “was not [a challenge] that I had been asking for!”

The fact that the new role involved channeling a sci-fi legend by the name of Leonard Nimoy made it all the more intimidating. “I was in shock for the first day,” Torv confesses. “I think I hyperventilated — and then I called John Noble [Walter] to say, ‘Can you please help me?’ I wanted to know what he thought, and what that [Walter/William] relationship was like. Plus, John is such a sweetheart, a lovely person to ask.”

Fringe Aftermath 316: "Os"

Jeff Pinkner and J.H. Wyman discuss the last episode and about the return of William Bell's character.

Fringe Easter Egg Roundup for "Os"

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

The Observer can be spotted near the Massachusetts Metal Depository, observing the crime scene amongst the crowd. You can see him clearly walking up to the scene (with umbrella!) in this promotional photo.

Hidden Glyphs: I did not see any hidden glyphs in this episode. If you find any in the "Os" screenshots, let  us know!

Next Episode Clue: The Fringe episode "Subject 13" contained two posters of the periodic table of elements, the standard Mendeleev model, and the much newer Circular model (we won't mention the fact that both versions are too modern for 1985...). In either poster, you can see the symbol for Osmium - "Os", the titular element of the episode:

KRICK: I work in aeronautics. A few months ago, I was contracted to develop a new alloy for military aircraft-- A metal dense enough to keep pilots safe from ground fire, but still allow for flight. I wasn't having much success. And then I combined two elements. Rare elements.
WALTER: Osmium and lutetium.
KRICK: And that's when it happened. I'd combined two of the densest elements on earth, and somehow the result was a new molecule... A molecule lighter than air.

New Interview With Josh Jackson

Here's a new interview with Joshua Jackson where he talks about this season and about the growth of his character.

Fringe Discuss: Olivia Dunham Possesed By William Bell

Welcome to Wednesday, Fringe fans. It's time for our second installment of Fringe Discuss, where we take a look at one hot topic and have you weigh in on your thoughts.

This week's discussion topic:

Olivia Dunham is apparently now possesed by William Bell's conciousness. How do you feel about that? Is it a fun thing, or a bad thing? Is it consistent with things in this series, or too far out there?

There are some fans who have recently verbalized on the internet that they are upset by this development, and yet other fans think it's fun.

Please share your thoughts on this, and remember, it's healthy in Fringe to disagree.

Just be considerate of your fellow fans and please keep your language civil.

How do you feel about the "Soul Magnet" story line?

Episode Review-'Os'

"What if I fail?"
"You won't fail, Walter."
"How can you be so sure?"
"Because you can't."

This is a bridging episode between where Fringe was and where it's heading, and the stakes have never been higher for our favorite mad scientist, Walter Bishop.

Like many in the series so far this is mainly a relationship episode, mostly about that bittersweet relationship that can exist between a father and son.

I always loved Greek mythology as a kid, so in the fourth scene, Walter's immediate reference to Icarus' flying to close to the sun and falling to the earth made me smile. It also made me alert. It wasn't just the famous Daedalus and Icarus father and son story we were talking about here, but most likely the foreshadowing of another father losing a son.(Yikes!)In a quick recap, Daedalus the designing father and his son, Icarus, were trapped in a labyrinth on the island of Crete by an evil king(long story). Daedalus came up with the idea of crafting a set of wings out of feathers and wax with which he and his son could escape. Before they did, Daedalus warned Icarus not to get too close to the ocean lest his wings get wet and malfunction, and not to get too close to the sun, lest the wax of his wings melt and he fall into the sea. Unfortunately, Icarus got carried away by the magnificence of flight and flew too close to the sun. The wax holding his wings together melted, and Icarus plummeted into the sea and drowned. There's no hard proof yet but I can't shake the feeling that this is foreshadowing of the fate of Peter Bishop sometime in the future of the series, not exactly in the manner of this myth, but similarly none the less.
