Fringe

[ Mood: Silly ]
Watched the first episode of Fringe this morning. It is a sort of X-Files for the 21st century. When a plane full of skeletons lands at a US airport, FBI agent Olivia Dunham finds herself in increasingly bizarre territory as she tries to find a cure for her partner who has become infected with a similar condition to those on the plane.

I loved this episode from the opening sequence on the plane onwards. It looks good. The story was pretty good and there were enough teasers to conspiracies and hidden technologies for me to want to watch again. I only hope they don’t lose themselves in obfuscation like the X-Files tended to do.

So a good start and maybe it will develop into something that will wipe away the memories of the last couple of X-Files seasons. The new movie will certainly have to come up with something impressive to match this.
