[I'm putting this here because I consider it sci-fi more than fantasy. Since it does deal with science, perhaps in a fictional way...]
The new show on FOX by J.J. Abrams.
I've seen the first two episodes now.
And I got to say, I'm hooked!

www.fox.com/fringe/Basically, I understand it all right, it's about a group of not quite FBI agents (not sure of what org. they work for) who is investigating a series of... human experiments involving probably illegal things. I think the point is that all the incidents are part of a larger scheme. But right now it's hard to tell how everything matches up. The Fringe part comes with everything having to do with "fringe" science or things that aren't really science, like teleportation. The first episode was all about a plane where all the people on board, basically, well, melt. Because one of the passengers injected himself with some kind of bio-agent. And his twin brother was back in Boston trying more experiments. The second episode was about rapid aging. I guess some scientists back in the '70s were hired by the government to somehow "grow" human soldiers. (Not too unlike the clones from Kamino in SW). They were working on how to speed up the growth with playing with growth hormones but wanting to stop the aging when the men got to age 21. So that they could fight. One guy who was a result of it, had to keep killing women for their pituitary gland (I think?) in order that he wouldn't age and die. He accidentally slept with one of them first, got her pregnant and transmitted the aging agent, so that her baby grew from 0 to death in about 4 hours. You'd probably get a better explanation elsewhere, lol. It basically involves an FBI agent on special assignment with this guy on this team investigating the events and a scientist who had previously been in an asylum for 17 years because someone thought he was murdering people with his experiments (he had also worked for the government) and his son.

So far I really like this show as well and it seems to have the potential to be a great science fiction series.

Haha, yeah. What is your take on John? Hallucination? Spirit? Alive again? Do you believe him, that he really wasn't trying to kill Olivia and really was working on her side?

Maybe...
Or I'm wondering if he's just lying to Olivia or something. But still, he did seem to be helping her at the end of last week's episode.
And I'm still not entirely sure WHAT John is. I mean, Massive Dynamics had his body, so did they clone him? Or is Olivia imagining him?
