Fringe #4: The Arrival/Sept 2008

[Dog Moon]

I'm not sure I understood correctly, I didn't care for this ep, so I should watch the others, at least 1 of the three being worse than the one I didn't like?

Whoops. Accidentally posted a double negative. I meant to say that the most recent was the worst of the four.

IMO, their relationship has always been a little rocky, but at least before, they were communicating in a decent manner and occasionally giving each other ideas. They WERE a team, but by this most recent episode, they apparently broke away from that. Hopefully, that is only this one episode.

Now, I don't mind the change in formula, but I think they changed too much too fast in a single episode and made their unit almost break apart. That's the main reason why I mentioned the change in formula, not because I dislike it, because one of my first thoughts after the second episode was, I don't know if I could watch a show that sticks to this exact formula for like 24 episodes.

BUT, my point is, if you watch one of the other episodes and don't like it, fine, but please don't base the entire series on what at least some of us agree is the worst episode in the series.

I thought Peter's conversation with the Observer was similar to the Doctor Who episode "Midnight".

This wasn't my favorite episode so far, but I'm really digging this show. It's like X-files, only turned up to 11.

I'm really starting to dig this show. I think I actually enjoyed it more than Heroes this past week. Heroes is just so frustrating to watch. While some episodes of Fringe have been better than others so far, I've enjoyed how each episode has enfolded and what was revealed.

I'll definitely keep watching.
