From E! Online:
| Quote: | Fox has announced that hit sci-fi series Fringe will definitely be coming back for a second season of approximately 22 episodes.
The pickup was widely expected, seeing as how (a) Fringe is running more or less even with The Mentalist for top-rated new series of the year, (b) Fringe is freaky-deaky fun and (c) Fringe comes from the generally acclaimed wunderkinds at Bad Robot—you know, the ones who make Lost and the upcoming Star Trek movie. |
Yay!  |

And Leonard Nimoy already signed as a recurring character, too.
it'll probably run Tuesdays again, and they'll ounce... Bones or whatever back. Or premiere some new show before it. if it survived its first season, it'll probably be considered enough of a tent pole to support another show, rather than the other way around. |

Hard to say. Fringe has held only roughly 40-45% of the Idol lead in which isn't the best thing in life for a power ratings show.
I think Monday will stay the same. House and 24 just seem to work well together on Monday.
I think Bones should stay on Thursday. It pulls 8-10 million a night on a hard night.
I think they may let it stay on Tuesday OR put it behind Bones since I don't think Fringe is ready to be on its own to lead in anything yet.

This is fantastic news! I just finished watching 119 and thought it was the best episode yet.
Love the entire parallel reality thing, with visions of a bleaker world and the entire underlining ZFT story arc.
Dunno why, but seeing that "He is here" written on the side of a building during one of the visions really gave me the chills. I'm getting something of an Antichrist vibe from the whole thing. |
