Fringe - what's the big deal?

Anyone else seen the show?

Seems like a mishmash of Lost and X-Files to me, in that it is constantly hinting towards huge, overarching conspiracies (the "Pattern") without ever explaining them... a la Lost... but then has all the paranormal sort of FBI investigative elements of X-Files.

Already I'm bothered, from only watching the first 3 episodes, by how the characters are reintroducing themselves to the audience in each episode. It's that kind of audience hand-holding that turns me off some shows very early on.

    I like it so far. Crazy Scientest is Crazy.

    I hope they keep the short commercial breaks!

    It's just another geek show.
