I was Stars Wars mad! I was only about 5 when it came out and I demanded to see it in the theater at least 4 successful times. I had all the paraphernalia. Damn, my parents for giving it away without asking! So every once in awhile, I will see a show or film of that genre that peaks my interest slightly like Doctor Who but that could also be because David Tennant is gorgeous but I digress.
Fringe, I thought, was going to be one of those shows. I watched the first two episodes and it was laughable to say the very least. The whole hodge podge of every fictional monster in the span of sixty minutes was just too much to swallow. But tonight, I had misplaced the remote and thought since it was its season return, I would give it one last chance.What a freaking mistake!!! This is tripe at its best!!! Lines like "Don't you know what a penis looks like" in a mad European accent made my skin crawl. The bad writing and acting should result in SAG and WGA revoking these people's union cards. If anyone over at Fox is laid off because of lack of funds, they can blame this show for wasting the company's money.
I gave up watching once I saw the weird vampire looking kid having his head hooked up to some machine, while the crazy scientist jived along to Al Green and that's only because I was jealous. I would love to have some machine right now to eradicate any memory of this garbage.

The 2 parts you cite as being the most laughable were 2 of my favorite scenes. You have to know the character Walter to really get it, maybe.
You are entitled to your opinions but understand that if you do not follow the show you cannot form an intelligent opinion about the synergy that the ensemble has and the fun the writers are obviously having with the whole fantasy. Weird science followed to its insane conclusion is what makes this show so much fun, and of course the actors add a "reality" to it that is wonderful to see. If ya dont like it...don watch it but allow that others feel differently and that we will support this quirky little show as long as it lasts.
