Welcome to SpoilerTV's weekly edition of Fringe Friday!
(Updated October 19, 2012)
[INSERT EPISODE HERE]
Well, it's a weird conundrum we find ourselves in today, folks...There IS no episode of Fringe this week.
However, that will not stop me from posting FRINGE FRIDAY!
Why do I say it's a weird conundrum? Well...it's because we are in the final season and we're probably all restless to see the end, where our characters' fates end up, and we want to enjoy every moment along the way. However, this is also a sort of foreboding reminder that in the very near future there will be no more new Fringe episodes to grace our television screens.
So, that's today's topic: how upset do you think you'll be when Fringe ends? Will you be happy for it to end on its own terms instead of ending after season 2 when the ratings were in the toilet? How do you feel towards FOX now that they have gracefully handled the Fringe ratings situation (by renewing it 3 times past its ratings-based expiration date)? And how much are you upset that we don't have an episode of Fringe to watch on this Fringe Friday?
Keeping it short and sweet since this week's an off week, I have to say that while I found overall I enjoyed The Recordist, it was quite a lull of an episode. The archives were awesome and gorgeously rendered, but it fell flat a bit for me, until the end when we could see them driving through the ravaged city remnants in that old car, with Walter's odd sunglasses...
I really liked the comics that the kid drew, and the one-liner Peter said about his "strong jawline" and like I said, I still enjoyed it...it IS Fringe after all...but it did seem to be missing a bit of "oomph" this past episode. I'm hoping next week, we get back to the serialized, high stakes, big character moments feel that I love so much.
On another note, I have added new songs to the Fringe Friday playlist! Including tracks suggested by readers! So, if you think you know of a song that might be applicable, just let me know in the comments below! I can't promise it'll make the cut, but if it does, you can listen to it along with all the other Fringe Friday spotify subscribers!
Who's ready to get this Fringe Friday underway! Time to break out the licorice and slush-os! (Even if there is no episode to watch tonight!)
