I haven't yet made up my mind whether I'll continue to watch Fringe. As you say, it's hard to believe and they didn't seem to make much effort in that direction.
But I'm still in favor and support of the experiment of reducing the percentage of commercials a bit. It will be interesting to see how that works.

I saw the beginning of the second episode. It's dreadful and requires too great a suspension of disbelief for me. Shorter would be better, if you ask me.

Fox is doing some interesting stuff.Last night was the debut of Fringe, a show about "fringe science." Not only was the episode fun, but get this, each commercial break was either 60 seconds or 90 seconds long. That's it.And the commercial breaks did not seem more frequent than usual, either.If anything, the other way around. What's going on at Fox?
