Fringe: "The Arrival" 9/30 - Grading & Discussion

[Aragorn]

Zane Ziminski is fired from NASA after picking up unidentified signals from a distant location in space. His curiosity soon turn to sheer terror as he travels to Mexico, where a series of unexplained events lead him to believe that there are aliens all over the world. He gathers evidence to support this theory but will he ever have the chance to broadcast the 'facts' alive?

Spoiler: The Arrival

The team investigates a strange cylinder, found in a deadly explosion at a construction site in New York City. The cylinder was in the middle of the explosion and was completely unharmed. Olivia uncovers a correlation between different disturbing events.

 

[IDIC]

It was only a matter of time before aliens got involved.

Watch out for the kid next door, Zane! He's not who you think!

I'm really enjoying this show a lot. Can't wait to see tonight's episode.

 

[Samurai8472]

So will Charlie Sheen be guest starring?

 

[Trippy]

Looking foward to tonight's episode too!

 

[LitmusDragon]

I'm sticking with it too, though I wish we got the local channels in high-def.

 

[Trippy]

Hmmm.....what`s arrived

 

[Samurai8472]

^For my HD tv if I scan for channels I can get HD-analog channels like Fox and ABC and PBS and some local channels. Fox and ABC are 720.

One time I did a scan and got HBO HD and Starz HD then I come home the next day and they're scrambled

Anyways that man reminded me of one of the men in black aliens who lived in a suit

 

[Capn Flukie]

Mmmm, jalapenos...

 

[Trippy]

Only 11 mind , on the side

 

[Neroon]

So will Charlie Sheen be guest starring?

OKay, I'll bite.

 

[Trippy]

Ok wtf did Walter do with Astrid!

 

[Gertch]

So will Charlie Sheen be guest starring?

OKay, I'll bite.

The Arrival

Okay Saturday afternoon flick on SciFi with the kids and some popcorn.



Hmmm, interesting story but not very well done. Maybe I'm just tired but the little story at the end didn't really do much for me in terms of wrapping up the story.

But still, good enough to make me want to watch another.

Olivia: Cereal and Scotch-breakfast of champions

Ok, how did I know John would be walking in her door

 

[timmay2411]

I thought this ep was quite solid.

Started to ask a lot of questions.

Actually addressed Peter's character......he finally wants to leave, now has a new reason to stick around. Gave him contractor status (but what about his shady activities?). Little things like that.

Olivia though, for a lead, she doesnt talk much. And we know next to nothing about her character.

"The Observer" Totally sounds like the odd names for characters from the X-Files ala WDM, CSM, etc.

What is next week!? Way to kill viewers with a week off.

 

[CommodoreKong]

I thought it was a decent episode. I really liked the Observer character, hopefully we'll see more of him in the coming episodes.

 

[MeanJoePhaser]

More like The Departure...after another week of mediocrity.

Man-in-Black...gee...we're mining that originality, aren't we?

At least we were spared Robo-Blair Brown.

Walter really kicked Astrid tonight.

 

[Trippy]

Only an Average tonight.

 

[Samurai8472]

Only watched the first 15 minutes before watching Iron Man
