Trivia:

An episode of 'Fringe' runs from about 49 to 51 minutes in length. This is in contrast to the typical 42-43 minute length of a one hour drama. This is part of Fox's plan to see if viewers are more likely to tune in if there are less commercials.

Goofs:

Errors in geography: Despite being set in Boston many of the neighborhoods bear no resemblance to the actual Boston neighborhoods they are supposed to represent.

Great show, don't listen to the critics...

This is a great show with talented actors and great storyline. You have to see every episode to know whats going on. Nothing for viewers who watches a episode every other week. The people who calls the storyline bad doesn't get it. It's very smart and like "Lost" you have to use your mind to find out the secrets revealed throughout the show. JJ Abrams is a brilliant writer and the cast is perfect. I strongly recommend you who haven't seen this show to have a look. -FROM THE BEGINNING- otherwise you will not understand a thing.
