[SPOILERS] It's difficult to dislike episodes of Fringe that tackle its mythology, particularly the enigmatic Observer (Michael Cerveris), who has become the show's very own "Where's Wally?" character... but "August" was decidedly average in storytelling terms. This eighth episode focused on that peculiar race of bald-headed Observers (yes, we learn there's more than one) and while...

Well, tonight's episode of "Fringe" seeks to answer at least some of the lingering questions about the bald-headed, condiment-loving characters and just what role they will play in the upcoming episodes. "The episode that we actually do have coming [...]

From the fantastical set of Fringe in Vancouver, I got to play the role of Observer (without undergoing a buzz cut, thankfully) and find out from the cast what’s coming up on this show in which “the impossibilities are endless.” Here’s a whiff of what was uncovered during my visit. A prevailing topic on the set was that The Observers are about to get a whole lot more face time....
