Anyone just watch that show on NBN,
It's pretty intense, and good!

I don't see the comparison that everybody seems to think: The X-Files meets Lost. Sure, its a sci-fi and the first scene involved an airplane with 108 (4+8+15+16+23+42) passengers and Lance Reddick appears in both shows but other then that, it draws no comparisons with Lost.
The pilot was okay, but the plot twist at the end had me thinking, we followed the main protagonists attempts to heal her lover from imminent death (I wouldn't go as far and say that he was her boyfriend) only for him to die in the end and turns out he was working for the opposing side? The whole episode kind of seemed pointless then once you thought about it that way other than to provide a means to introduce the main characters (which I guess, is the purpose of a pilot). But, I'm sure things will pick up throughout the season.

The premise is good and interesting, and the protagonist was well acted. But the dialogue was dry, the comic relief wasn't presented to its full potential and there was a lack of depth to the actual scenes - it seemed as though the cultural context of it was just blurred together. The dream scene was good, but it was too obvious that it was all just computer graphics.

Also, the big letters that tell you where they are before the camera goes through them were okay, but not exactly necessary and just a excuse for wasting actual plot time.

If they cut it down to 45 - 50 minutes total, I would have liked it a lot better.

It's a crap version of the Xfiles.

im so sick of channel nine calling it epic

but the show is pretty friggin' awesome ;D

Fringe is an awesome tv show. Its the best new show on tv currently...Glad to see atleast 1 channel is running a TV show that isnt about dancing/singing/fatties loosing wieght/crime... (yeah i am aware about dexter and all that, they are alright but you know what i mean)

Although because it is not like these tv shows and it does not appeal to the normal tv watchers...it will be pushed back to about 11:30 at night and then played randomly and then eventually end up like battle star galactica and just disapear, we need more decent tv shows like this one in australia.

i reckon its pretty good
but its on at the same time as house

 

[$hiftyIceQueen]

^lol. house is so shit compared to it. i was watching an episode last week and seriously house isnt as good as it use to be, whereas this show is like whoa awesome, plus you have to watch it all to get it <3

 

[Mothers]

This show is seriously the shizz. It's good shit, and I agree with the above poster, House pales in comparison to Fringe.

 

[Morbo]

No, I'd much prefer to watch House than Fringe. It's not the greatest show at the moment, I've downloaded all the episodes so far and thought only the third episode was above average (don't get me wrong, Fringe is still a lot better than anything else that's showing on television at the moment). The forth episode was not great and for some reason I'm in constant pain whenever I see/hear Joshua Jackson on screen. After Dawson's Creek, how can anybody take him seriously ever again...

I'm still going to watch though, intrigued by Lance Reddick and Blair Brown's characters.
But, at the moment for me it's Lost > Dexter >= House > Fringe > every other show on TV that's not currently airing reruns.
