Book Review: 'Fringe: Sins Of The Father' Just Makes You Miss The Long Gone Series

Fringe is gone, that’s just a hard fact of life that I’m going to have to accept. Luckily, I’ve had a couple of years to get used to this, which is more than enough time to marathon the entire series, a couple of times, just in case you’re wondering. And if you’re also a fan, it’s good to resign yourself to this, because these Fringe novelizations—they’re really tie in novels, full of cursory stories from the lives of the main characters—just aren’t cutting it.

Five Shows And A Movie To Watch Before 'Almost Human'

Fox’s futuristic police procedural Almost Human premieres this Sunday and Monday, November 17 and 18 respectively, and not only does it look like a badass new sci-fi joint, the show boasts a ton of big time creative power as well. Behind the scenes you’ll recognize names like J.J. Abrams, who is directing a little movie we like to call Star Wars: Episode VII, and J.H. Wyman, the showrunner behind Fringe. On screen, there’s Bones McCoy himself, the new incarnation of him anyway, Karl Urban, Lily Taylor from The Conjuring, and Friday Night Lights’ Minka Kelly, among others.

Fringe's Finest Hours: Brent's Favorite Episodes Of Fox's Sci-Fi Procedural

Fringe may be dead and gone, but thanks to syndication on the Science Channel, not to mention the magic of a home releases, you’ll have ample opportunities to watch and re-watch your favorite Fringe cases. This is a show that really benefits from the ability to watch in a marathon format. As you move through the series and each episode becomes more and more connected to those that came before, and those that come after, it’s nice to view them one after another for continuity’s sake.
