Last night was the season debut of Fringe on FOX and I was very pleased with the show.  It is what I’ve been waiting for after all these years without an X-Files replacement.  The mysterious, the unknown, the weird and the unexplainable are all back in Fringe.  I’ve found a new show to watch on Tuesdays.  The debut was about a strange virus made to kill people by breaking down their cellular structure and let me tell you it was crazy!  And they set up what I’m sure will be the evil corporation in Massive Dynamics.

The next round of episodes seem to be even better than the debut with the kinds of freaky subjects that hooked so many people on the X-Files.  Bring on the baby having episode!  It has a very good cast with a strong lead character in FBI Special Agent, Olivia Dunham.  It’s a nice twist to have a woman FBI agent being the focal point of the show.  Dr. Bishop and his son Peter are the perfect match for her character.  FBI agents, conspiracies, weird doctors, boy genius and evil corporations make Fringe the new “it” on Tuesdays.  What more could a sci-fi fanatic want?

I especially loved the “Fringe will return in 90 seconds” bit that FOX used.  I know they won’t do that throughout the season but it was a lot of fun running to the kitchen timing myself each time when I had something to do at the commerical break.  And how cool was it seeing the different locations of the show displayed in bold letters?  Nice touch.
