iReport —

The weekly Fox TV show, "Fringe",  is the best thing since X-Files! It has great scripts, awesome plots plus great acting. When X-Files ended, I found myself wondering what was I supposed to watch that was crazy and weird?

 

Then I found "Fringe". J.J. Abrams, the show's producer, brings an embellishment to the show as he does with most of what he does. Chris Carter's X-Files was great, but Abrams takes this show "over the top."

 

The show has three main characters:

 

Olivia- the lead FBI Investigator who has budding psychic abilities.

 

Peter Bishop, the "director " that coordinates the investigations

 

Dr. Walter Bishop, Peter's Dr. Frankenstein father

 

The show raises many questions that draw you further into the plot.

 

Who is William Bell (played my Leonard Nimoy) ?

What's the big idea behind this?

What is Olivia's secret from her past?

Who is the observer?

 

Fox has a hit here. I find the show interesting and I enjoy a mystery. In "Fringe's case", it's an ongoing thriller. Highly recommended.
