alwaysamyFox is reairing Fringe tonight. I watched on Thursday and am head over heels in love.
Thing the first: Joshua Jackson, all grown up. YUM. Gorgeous, bearded, playing a snarky genius who never realized his potential and is only participating under duress.
Thing the second: Total X-Files vibe from this show -- fringe science (well, duh), but smart dialogue, great tension, and a dark, quirky sense of humor.
Thing the third: Anna Torv, a newcomer who plays FBI agent Olivia Dunham, could be Poppy Montgomery's sister. I really like her so far.
Thing the fourth: Denethor! I mean, John Noble! Playing a completely out-there scientist who's been in a mental institution for the last seventeen years. AWESOME.
More things!: Cows! Sexual tension! Mind-altering drugs! Spongebob references! BLAIR BROWN! Which I can't believe I forgot to mention until now.
It's J.J. Abrams, he who brought us Lost and Alias, which is ... good and bad. By the end of this episode it's clear that corporate behemoth "Massive Dynamic" is going to play a big role in the show, which reminds me (not very happily) of Lost's Dharma Initiative, and by association the mess Abrams made of the mythology behind both previous shows.
Still! Joshua Jackson! He's very lickable. I'm going to keep watching. I've always had a soft spot formen shows that are sure to break my heart, or at the very least make me pull my hair out while sitting in the corner rocking and babbling.
Watch with me! I believe the regular slot is Tuesdays at 9 p.m. EST after House, which doesn't suck, you know?
