Fringe

We’re all very excited for the FRINGE episode airing tonight at 10pm EST!  It’s Momentum Deferred, the one with loads of Nimoy (aka William Bell and Olivia) scenes.

Also: any serious thoughts on why Rebecca has no hard feelings about Walter’s tests on her?  All we can come up with are the free drugs…

Tonight on Fringe, Walter, Broyles and Astrid scramble for answers when Peter and Olivia become trapped in a Boston office building that's been quarantined by the Centers for Disease Control because of a deadly virus.

It's been a long hiatus from Fringe,but we're finally back with a new episode Tuesday night. The InnerSPACE gang also returns from their own hiatus, and they're gonna follow up with some sweet commentary.

JJ Abrams wants to give his paranormal procedural show Fringe an end date. In an interview with Slice of Sci Fi, Abrams says that clear end dates for shows, like Lost, have helped to reign in flagging storylines and give writers a clear structure and trajectory. 

New casting news for Fringe! They've cast the woman who will play Peter's mother/Walter's estranged wife in the popular paranormal procedural drama. Michael Aussiello (EW) reports that Irish actress Orla Brady will debut on the show in 2010.

If you've seen the most recent episode of Fringe, "August", you'll know that  The Observer figured largely into the episode. And what we have seen in this and other episodes from the past is that The Observer has a knack for showing up at all the crucial fate-deciding moments in history to "observe". He's a hotsauce-loving, time-crunching "Cancer Man" of the series.  What does he know?  What is his agenda? Where has he been before? Where will he show up next?

On this week’s episode of Fringe, an unusual abduction in Boston reveals information about the Observer and bizarre evidence that Walter, Peter and Astrid must sort out in the lab---in between Walter's constant cravings for a milkshake.

I caught these Fringe videos on Io9.com's wicked Morning Spoilers segment, featuring the cast of Fringe talking with Korbi TV about their characters and their aspirations for the series. John Noble talks about what he thinks the Alternate Universe Walter will be like. Anna Torv talks about where she wants Olivia to go in the episodes ahead.

Tuesday night on Fringe: Of Human Action  -  The Fringe division assists in the investigation of a kidnapping-turned-hostage crisis in New York and discovers a possible connection between the current situation and Massive Dynamic.

On this week’s episode of Fringe, "Earthling", the Division probes bizarre cases of people turning into ash. Meanwhile, the investigation reveals clues about Broyles' past.
