While Lost is on hiatus, I’ll also be blogging about one of the most anticipated shows next season, and it happens to be another JJ Abrams masterpiece.

Fringe a series starring Australian actress Anna Torv, former teen star Joshua Jackson and John Noble from Lord of the Rings. Their characters are brought together as a result of a mysterious event.
Olivia Dunham (Anna Torv) is an FBI Agent who is called to investigate an airplane that lands at the Logan airport with every passenger dead, their bodies melting away. Hoping to find some answers, Agent Dunham tracks down a former scientist, Dr. Walter Bishop (John Noble), who is now institutionalized at a mental hospital. In oder to meet him, she has to seek the help of his estranged son, Peter (Joshua), who is characterized as a Sawyer-type, but with an IQ of 190. And together they uncover something mysterious, potentially dangerous.
Without spoiling away anything, I can say that the two-hour pilot, budgetted at $10 Million, delivers all that is expected. The visual effects are top-notch. It will be one people will talk about when the series begins airing when the new season opens in September.
And while Fringe is tapped as a horror series, it also is made light with a touch of humor, mostly coming from the cooky old scientist.
The actors appear to gel well together; the chemistry projects very well screen, every bit of them. Anna Torv will probably be one of the faces to watch next season. She is radiant and charming on screen; she is likeable.
Other cast members include Mark Valley from Boston Legal, Kirk Acevedo from Band of Brothers and Lance Reddick, who most Lost fans will recognize as Matthew Abaddon.
