The second episode of J.J. Abram's Fringe came on strong tonight. Joshua Jackson is quite good. Never thought I'd say that--never a Dawson's Creek fan. The three central characters Peter Bishop (Jackson), Agent Dunham (Anna Tory), and scientist/crack pot Walter Bishop (John Noble) compliment each other well.
Tonight's ep was perfectly creepy, weird, gory, and odd. Sorry--not going into details. Suffice to say, there was weird things crawling under the skin, medical experimentation, removal of pituitary glands while awake, man-babies. Very X-Files, but still fresh.
The score is probably the most glaringly obvious thing going. It's very Lost--melodramatic and foretelling. I don't know if I like the time slot, 8p CST, but it follows House, M.D., so I won't miss it.
