I don't see any threads about Bones or Fringe
2 of my favorite tv series, so... I thought I would start one. Any other fans out there that want to express opinions on the season premiere episodes?

My thoughts:

Bones: I sure hope they can rebuild the lab at the Jeffersonian! :)


Fringe: Poor Oliva, they have brainwashed her and cut off her escape, and Bolivia is free to mess with Walter and Peter! Horrors!

1. I haven't watched Fringe yet
Thursday is complicated, with a lot of good stuff on at once. I will watch Fringe online later this weekend.

Did they say "Bolivia" in the show? I nearly died laughing when they said "Walternate".

7. No, I picked up Bolivia from a fan site
"Walternate" was hilarious :)

2. HUGE fan of both.
Thanks for posting, I hadn't seen anyone do it yet.

Fringe was amazing last night, we are going to watch it again this evening. I do think that Olivia is playing along, however.

3. Don't have cable, so watching Fringe via Netflix DVDs
Just getting into the second season now. It is compelling.

Yes I know Hulu is running it, but want to catch up first.

Will check out Bones

9. I actually got into bones before fringe
in both cases I checked them out on Hulu first and became a fan.

16. Husband clued me on Fringe. We're both looking forward to Bones.
Because his hearing is circling the drain, he needs close caption; so it's DVDs.

4. Got the Fringe: Season One DVD set cheap.
The trouble with watching one episode per week, with only three series running, is that I now have a backlog of series to view. But when I get to Fringe, I'll get back to you.

So don't get old and die. ;)

19. He's my personal favorite...
and it becomes even more exciting as he plays two entirely different personalities now.

6. Love Fringe and Warehouse 13. Do NOT like Sci-Fi "Original" movies...
...like "King-ga, Giant Roach of the Valley" or "Matomb-ba, Huge Shrimp of the Sea" :puke:

15. I just finished watching the first season of Fringe
I wasn't terribly impressed. Mostly I don't like the actors except for the mad doc.

I love Bones, but have to wait for it to come out on DVD to see it.

17. Question (possible spoiler for anyone who hasn't seen the previous season's end)
I just saw the latest episode. I can't remember how Peter got to the other side in the first place. He wanted to go, right? Did Walter help him?

21. Thanks!
I guess I need to watch last season's ending again. I remember the bridge but nothing beyond that!

22. I enjoy Bones, but Fringe has gotten a little too weird for me and I've stopped watching.
I did like Fringe for the first season or so.

23. I've posted a Bones thread before.
It was about my undying nerd-crush for Michael Conlin.

I love that show!
