Fringe!

New Fringe is on tonight! I do believe a long day just got better!

Eventually, some day, long from now, I will find a Fringe comm that shares my enthusiasm and doesn't harsh the buzz by pointing out the pseudo-science fallacies or ruin it by pairing everyone up.

PS - My coworkers are currently making a broken desk squeek and making... interesting... suggestions as to how it got broken. Hee!

Are there Fringe coms? I enjoy Fringe and all of the characters, but have a very soft spot for father and son duo Walter and Peter. :-)

I found [livejournal.com profile] fringeonfox and [livejournal.com profile] fringe_olivia, but they are both rather quiet. The first one tends to have reminders about the episodes and the occassional icon post. The second seems to rarely have updates.

Fringe is one of those shows you love, and want to delve into, but are afraid of reading/writing fic because the plot of the actual show is so intricate that you don't want it messed with. Oneshots could be cool, but huge novels could so easily be jossed with a single scene in a single episode, you know?

Yes, I agree. I'm not into fan fiction, I'm more into theories and episode discussion, neither of which appeared to be offered here, but I've joined!

i heart Fringe as well!

actually, i only started watching it b/c a friend from college is in it and i knew that she was going to ask me what i thought - i'm good for her ego! LOL - so i tuned in. i did not hold out a lot of hope; this is mostly b/c of Joshua Jackson, i'm not a fan. but then, something miraculous and wonderful happened. the show was made of awesome! i'm a fan. but... it's weird b/c i can't really get into the fandom side of things b/c when it's someone you know... that's just weird! LOL. i know, i'm a hypocrite. but i am very happy every time i see it prompted at [livejournal.com profile] comment_fic b/c i know that means it will stay on. *blithely ignores past fandoms where that has not been true*

I was iffy about it at first as well, mainly because the only thing I had ever known JJ to be in was Dawson's Creek or some such thing. I was more than pleasantly surprised to see he did not suck in this, plus Anna Torov is six kinds of awesome (my mother recognized her from an Aussie show she watches and said she rocked in that as well).

I think what makes the show for me is Walter though. He's just insane enough, mixed with his version of reasoning, you can't not love him. His interactions with everyone else and the way they treat his craziness just sets the tone for the whole thing for me, and I love it.
