Fringe‘s Executive Producers on “Entrada,” the Changes at Hand, and the Love Triangle – Part II

June 17, 2013
Fringe

As someone who writes, I am often asked which of my posts, short stories, or books are my favourite. I have to be honest – it’s a hard question. I usually answer that my favourite is the latest one, because it just happens to be akin to the sum of all my efforts throughout the… Read More Fringe‘s Executive Producers on “Entrada,” the Changes at Hand, and the Love Triangle – Part II

TV Review: Fringe, Season 3, Episode 15: Subject 13 – Part I

June 17, 2013
Fringe

Considering the past helps us trace the path to the future before us a lot better – or so it is hoped.  By going back to the 1980s to explore the consequences of what happened after Walter brought Peter to our side from the alternate universe, we can also understand better Walter’s recent reactions to,… Read More TV Review: Fringe, Season 3, Episode 15: Subject 13 – Part I

Good and Evil in Fringe’s “The Box”

June 15, 2013
Fringe

The concept of evil has been a recurrent theme in Fringe. With the introduction of Walternate’s extreme focus on revenge, at the price of the life of his own son, it feels like this theme is going to come at the forefront of many a review and fan discussion forum this season. One of the… Read More Good and Evil in Fringe’s “The Box”

TV Review: Fringe – “Northwest Passage”

June 15, 2013
Fringe

Fans have been clamouring for a Peter-centric episode for quite some time now, especially after the big reveal in “The Man from the Other Side.” “Northwest Passage” definitely delivered, using a monster-of-the-week type story to further develop Peter’s character while topping the episode off with a reveal that makes the upcoming two-part finale all the… Read More TV Review: Fringe – “Northwest Passage”

TV Review: Fringe, Season 3, Episode 19 : Lysergic Acid Diethylamide, Part I

June 12, 2013
Fringe

The 19th episode of the Fringe‘s third season is, as the name implies, quite a trip. Lysergic Acid Diethylamide (LSD) is a powerful hallucinogenic semi-synthetic drug that induces psychotic symptoms similar to schizophrenic episodes.  It is no coincidence that this drug is the choice for Walter and Bell’s experiments. The drug is a perfect cast… Read More TV Review: Fringe, Season 3, Episode 19 : Lysergic Acid Diethylamide, Part I

TV Review: Fringe, Season 5, Episode 8: The Human Kind

January 3, 2013
Fringe

It is becoming harder and harder for me to review episodes of Fringe, knowing that the end is nigh. I realise that the writers are doing a good job with the time limit they have. But I worry that I will be so disappointed by the finale, scheduled to air on 18 January, that it… Read More TV Review: Fringe, Season 5, Episode 8: The Human Kind

TV Review: Fringe, Season 5, Episode 7: Five-Twenty-Ten

November 30, 2012
Fringe

Only in Fringe would two beacons, a silent bald kid, a toxin that hideously melts flesh, and another one that horrifically closes all orifices all have in common the future of humanity. In this, the seventh episode of the fifth and final season of the award-winning show, we continue following Walter, Olivia, Peter and Astrid… Read More TV Review: Fringe, Season 5, Episode 7: Five-Twenty-Ten

TV Review: Fringe, Season 5, Episode 6: Through The Looking Glass And What Walter Found There

November 17, 2012
Fringe

The sixth episode of the fifth and last season of Fringe seems to mark a return to the show’s roots. We were treated to an episode that seemed to finish only mere minutes after it began, a distinct sign of a great hour of storytelling. In sharp contrast to the previous episodes, there was not… Read More TV Review: Fringe, Season 5, Episode 6: Through The Looking Glass And What Walter Found There

TV Review: Fringe, Season 5, Episode 5: An Origin Story

November 10, 2012
Fringe

And voilà: Fringe seems to have bounced back. I hate to admit it, but Etta’s death last episode did seem to bring a je ne sais quoi back to the show that had been a little lacking in the last couple of episodes. My friend Monica is completely right in saying that with Etta’s death,… Read More TV Review: Fringe, Season 5, Episode 5: An Origin Story

TV Review: Fringe, Season 5, Episode 4: The Bullet that Saved the World

November 3, 2012
Fringe

I took a bit longer than anticipated to watch last week’s episode of Fringe, “The Bullet that Saved the World”. An avid Twitter user, I understood from the tweets of fellow Fringe fans that something bad would happen, and I wanted to delay the inevitable. Etta’s death, while adding a layer of emotional complexity to… Read More TV Review: Fringe, Season 5, Episode 4: The Bullet that Saved the World
