Fringe Allowing Absurdity, Growing The Audience (Paley Center, 2009)

Co Creator and Executive Producer J.J. Abrams explains that because actor Joshua Jackson's character Peter Bishop often comments on the show's absurd situations, the audience is granted permission to "go on the ride." Joshua Jackson talks about the Internet Age and the chance people have to disseminate ideas and how this grows and engages the audience.

@rotateddisk I am almost 41 and I DID watch Dawson's Creek & I LOVED it and still do! The only TV series DVDs I have ever bought & cared to buy to rewatch again & again are Dawson's Creek & Fringe. That is what makes Josh so amazing because I can watch him on Fringe & then when I watch him on DC, you forget about him role on Fringe & vice versa.

@luvagoo I LOVE absolutely EVERY THING about him!

So the three main cast members aren't American. No wonder the series is doing so well :D

Yes, we would love to be in the lab and be in FRINGE, but watching it is good enough, I can't wait to see what's to come... I can't wait for season 4!!! Yeahhh!!! Can't wait.

Bugger his face, I think I just fell in love with Jackson's intelligence.

I am so lucky I never watched Dawsons Creek. I was in the middle range too old to watch and too young to care.. Love Fringe.

best show - just because its human and non human - makes people look beyond, but still feel safe in their comfy chair - well done guys!
