Default Official Fringe Discussion thread.


A new TV show from the creators of Lost and Alias has been announced. 'Fringe' will air its pilot episode in the UK on SKY 1 at 9pm on Sunday the 5th October. It is being described as a new X-files.
The show is Projuced by J.J Abrams - behind hit disaster movie 'Cloverfield' and series such as Lost. The series is also from the writers of Transformers.

Synopsis:
When Flight 627 lands at Boston’s Logan Airport with no signs of life on board, a special task force led by FBI Special Agent Olivia Dunham is sent to investigate. Olivia's partner, Special Agent John Scott, is almost killed during the investigation, which leads her to seek the help of Dr. Walter Bishop, an incredibly brilliant man who has been institutionalized for the last 17 years.

Since Bishop's son Peter is the only person who can arrange a meeting, Olivia is forced to let him in on this mysterious situation.
After Olivia's investigation leads them to multi-billion dollar corporation Massive Dynamic, the entire team soon learns that what took place on Flight 627 is just the tip of the iceberg.
