Fringe

                For this blog entry, I’m going to be talking about the TV show called Fringe. The show is created by J.J. Abrams and there are three main characters: Agent Olivia Dunham (Ana Torv), Peter Bishop (Joshua Jackson) and Dr. Walter Bishop (John Noble). The show has made a lot of episodes already so I can’t talk about every single one. However, I will give a brief summary about what the show is about.
                The show Fringe is about Olivia, Peter and Walter who work on something called the Fringe division. This work is about things that happen that are out of this world and not possible. This is what makes the show a sci-fi show and very confusing. Olivia works for the FBI who finds out about these weird happenings and tries to contact someone who is an expert at it. Her first contact falls down to Walter who is the expert at the Fringe division. But he is kept in a mad house for talking about all the weird things that can happen but no one believes him and thinks he is crazy. Olivia needs to get him out but the only way to do it is that a family member can only take him out. She then finds out he has a son, Peter. She goes to Iraq where he is doing a business. She tries to convince him to go with her to get his father out of the mad house. At first, Peter doesn’t want to join her. One reason was because he disliked his father, and thought he was crazy. After some convincing, Peter joins Olivia and they go to the madhouse to get Walter out. He gets out of the madhouse and sets up his lab in the basement of a university and that is how it all started.
                The summary I just told was about the first episode. Hopefully with this summary, it will encourage you to watch this awesome and twisted minded TV show. If you watch Fringe, I recommend you start with the first episode, then the second, then the third etc., because if you start watching it in season 3, you won’t understand what’s going on. I hope you watch Fringe on WB channel and fox. They also show a new episode every Tuesday at 10 pm.
