A Hit of TV: Fall TV Preview, Day 3 - Fringe

While we're on the subject of J.J. Abrams, why not take a quick look at the return of Abrams' other series on television, Fringe, which comes back to FOX Thursday, September 23rd. The last time we saw Olivia (Anna Torv), Charlie...err...Peter (Mighty Ducks' Joshua Jackson), and Peter's father, Walter Bishop (John Noble, who played the steward of Gondor, Denethor, in the Return of the King), they were in separate universes. Olivia was taken prisoner in the alternate universe by alternate Walter ("Walternate") while the real Walter and Peter that we as an audience know, were back in the normal universe. However, there was one kicker at the end of the season that might just throw them off of finding the real Olivia: fake Olivia (Fauxlivia, let's go with) is pretending to be the real Olivia in the real universe. So no one knows any different. Aye scamoles! That is confusing to write and to read! Hopefully, you at least get the gist! So, the season coming up will be about the relationship formed between Peter and Fauxlivia and we will get to see what happens to the real Olivia, even learning a bit about her past, with guest stars that include Amy Madigan (Field of Dreams) as her mother.

It is an awesome show, and I will definitely be tuning in! Check out http://www.hulu.com/fringe to see the last few episodes of season two so that you can understand just what is happening when season three premieres on September 23rd.

I said good day, sir!
