After a long day of saving the world from paranormal phenomena and mutated serial killers that may-or-may-not-be from ‘the other side (dimension?),’ it should probably come as no surprise that two of your favorite series regulars succumb to temptation on Thursday’s second season premiere. But what might come as a surprise is which member (or members) of Fringe division lock lips! Needless to say, like most everything on the series, we guarantee you will not see it coming.
Which is our way of saying that X-FILES fans in particular should pay extra close attention to Thursday’s episode that have writers J.J. Abrams and Akiva Goldsman unexpectedly tipping their hat to the paranormal FOX series that started it all.
Even though actor Kirk Acevedo did announce via facebook that he was fired, don’t believe everything you read. Or rather, do believe it. Kinda. It will make Thursday’s episode that much more surprising.
Not only is Peter Bishop finally front and center, playing a pivotal role in the episode (and we predict the season), from his penchant for offering up way too much information (especially as he sticks his hand up a corpse’s you-know-what on Thursday’s episode) to his innate ability to make us laugh while doing so, Walter Bishop is in fine form. A fact that only adds insult to injury to John Noble’s lack of Emmy recognition and his inexcusable exclusion from this week’s Entertainment Weekly Fall TV Preview.
Because sometime during FRINGE’s second season premiere this Thursday September 17 at 9PM on FOX (CTV in Canada), theTVaddict.com (in partnership with the Warner Bro. Facebook Community) will be giving away one copy of FRINGE: THE COMPLETE FIRST SEASON on Blu-ray to one lucky reader.
