And the Fringe marathon has begun.. Watched the first few episodes of Fringe season 1 last night with the wife and she liked it. She doesn’t usually like the shows that I watched (Dexter, she hates blood.. Chuck, bored in the spy game). WE both love True Blood though.

Anyway, the pilot episode is pretty neat with the decaying-while-alive scene, that’s the one that got our attention. That’s exactly what the pilot should do, grab the viewer’s interest so they will watch the next episode.

For the pilot episode of Fringe, we got introduced to the main characters of the show – Olivia Dunham, Peter Bishop and Dr. Walter Bishop. Among the three, I am only familiar with Joshua Jackson because I was a big fan of Dawson’s Creek.

Here’s the synopsis of the pilot episode of Fringe:

When all the passengers and crew on Flight 627 Hamburg-to-Boston die in a hideous manner, FBI agent Olivia Dunham investigates the event. While following up a lead, her partner and lover, John Scott, undergoes life-threatening chemical contamination. A desperate Olivia looks for help and finds Dr. Walter Bishop, who cannot help her because he has been institutionalized. The only way to even question him is with the help of his son Peter.

Olivia continues her investigations and goes to Nina Sharp, a manipulative executive. Olivia, Peter and Dr. Bishop begin to discover what really happened on Flight 627 and start to uncover a larger truth.

The first few scenes of the show, I thought that John Scott, Olivia’s lover was one of the main characters of the show. He died but I have a very big feeling that he’ll be back.. “Question him” is what Sharp said before the episode ended.
