    But seriously, Fringe has become one of the best shows on TV. The show was unfocused for a while, but it has found it's groove.

    News reports said that the plane just lost contact, no confirmation that it actually crashed I don't think. So I don't think they'll kill them, but they'll either force them to go along with a different cover story or they'll keep them detained indefinitely like they're doing with the "aliens".

    I am trying to get into it . .. but like Flash Forward
    it maybe a victim of starting too slow

    I am getting tired of the flashbacks.

    I like the show. It basically replaced my "24" and "Lost" fix...at least to a degree. It seems to be getting better after a rocky start.

    Yep, I needed a show to replace LOST. It'll never be what LOST was but this is as good as it can get imo.

    Let's just hope it doesn't take the road 'Heroes' did. Great season 1 and then a nosedive.

    Ditto. After 24 ended I've been in search of a new show and so far The Event has satisfied.

    I've enjoyed it but the fact that I can watch it while doing something is just kind of tells me that it's not as engaging as Lost or something like Fringe.

    OK. I am liking this a bit.
    Two weeks off until the next show.
    This next show needs to blow me away.

    Anyone who is watching it . . .
    maybe I missed something but

    Have the explained: WHY DID THE BOYFRIEND NOT DIE AND NEED THE MAGIC LIQUID TO COME BACK TO LIFE??

    I think the storyline with the Couple is the most annoying part in all this.
    They just seem to catch incredible lucky breaks.

    Most boring episode of the season so far. I thought it would get less annoying once Sean got Leila but now it looks like they will be going after the OTHER sister. Ugh.

    Next episode looks good though.

    I think

    because he wasn't there when the helicopters came and infected the other people or whatever

    If of course that is what you're talking about....

    It seems like this show is ALL BUT CANCELLED
    but
    It was finally getting interesting.

    Shows like this should start off on SCI FI network
    then they would not have such hi expectations

    Why do you think it was cancelled?

    I see in several places where the ratings are really low.

    It was picked up for a full season which means at least 12 more episodes. But the ratings have below average since the 4th week. I wouldn't say they're "really low", but they are low. I've seen it happen before where a network decides to pull the plug and not even air the remaining episodes they have in the can. Hope that doesn't happen here, but it is NBC, so . . .

    They're always threatening to cancel "Chuck" and it does better than "The Event". So that's not a good sign. Not looking good for "Community" either and those are the only 3 NBC shows I watch.
