‘Fringe Friday Night Ratings Up

Good news for ‘Supernatural’ and ‘Fringe’ fans: The curse of the Friday night “Death Slot” may just be weakening.

Or perhaps Joshua Jackson’s personal appeal to fans to boost ‘Fringe’ ratings is paying dividends. Whatever, it was a good week for both series: According to TVLine.com audience figures bucked recent trends and rose Friday night.

In fact, most scripted shows posted good ratings Friday night. ‘Blue Bloods’ held its position as the most-watched show, even though its audience numbers were down 10 percent from its recent Wednesday night airing. The big loser was ‘Smallville,’ which saw a decline in viewers to 2.2 million, a fall of 5 percent.

‘Supernatural’ had a 15 percent rise — to 2.26 million — in total number of viewers, and a 24 percent increase in the much-coveted age 18-49 demographic, hitting a solid 1.0. Over on FOX at the same time, ‘Fringe’ saw its audience rise 10 percent to 4.06 million, and saw its demographic ratings rise 7 percent, to 1.5.

‘Fringe’ fans have been fretting about the fate of the offbeat drama since it moved to the much-dreaded Friday night, and despite reassuring messages from producers, viewing figures have been steadily declining. However, it seems like TVSquad was correct in predicting last week that it could finally be heading in a positive direction.

‘Supernatural’ creator Eric Kripke originally planned the Winchester saga as a five-season drama, but The CW commissioned a sixth season after it garnered consistently high ratings. Under new showrunner Sera Gamble the show’s struggled to attract viewers on Friday nights, so this week’s turnaround will be welcome news.

You can find out what attracted all the extra viewers by reading our recaps of the latest episodes of ‘Supernatural’ and ‘Fringe.’

Executive Producers Jeff Pinkner and J.H. Wyman Interview FRINGE

Even with a move to Friday night that upset many fans of the drama series, Fringe has been holding strong with its devoted followers, thanks to strong stories from its creative team and great acting from its cast, including co-stars Anna Torv, Joshua Jackson and John Noble. During a recent interview, executive producers Jeff Pinkner and J.H. Wyman talked about the feedback from the network on the show’s Friday ratings, what’s exciting them about the storytelling path they’re currently on, how things will be escalating in both worlds, how the relationship between Peter (Jackson) and Olivia (Torv) will be getting worse and better, that they already know where they would take the series through Season 5, and how they get many of their ideas from their own nightmares. They also teased what viewers can expect from the next episode, “6B,” airing on February 18th.

Fringe 6B recap: Good grief

“Fringe” has always been about the science. Sure, it might be crazy, out-there science, but it’s based on reality. Whether it’s genetic engineering or transferring memories, the science fiction of “Fringe” comes from real-world science fact that’s probably much more advanced than you think. That’s why they have the Science of Fringe to teach along with the stories.

“6B” ditches science for emotion. There’s no insane technology or miracle drug causing havoc in this week’s episode. This time the treat comes from two people whose grief is so strong that it rips apart the universe. Olivia’s big turning point on the case is when she realizes “it’s not about physics, it’s about people,” which feels like “Fringe” turning its back on the science that made it great.

Everything starts with a party in a Brooklyn apartment building. Young, attractive people chat about their young, attractive relationship problems, until the balcony momentarily vanishes, dropping a bunch of the partygoers onto the concrete below. The residents of the building believe the place is haunted, but really it’s just a hole torn between the two universes by an older couple’s grief.

Fringe 3×14 6B recap: Feelings, nothing more than feelings?

Fringe was almost all about feelings, wo-o-o-feelings, in the hour titled “6B,” in one of the most Twilight Zone-ish episodes of the series. The storytelling gave equal weight to the lurching romance between Olivia and Peter, and the romance between an elderly couple separated by death and the vagaries of the universes. The hour began with a scene set in Park Slope, Brooklyn — an apartment building seemed to expel some party-goers against their will out a seventh-story balcony. (There was an exaggeratedly comic moment early on, when we saw a woman dragging her suitcase out of the building, acting as though the place was haunted — very Rod Serling; very un-Fringe-like.) An occupant in apartment 6B, played by Phyllis Somerville (The Big C), was glimpsed reminiscing about her deceased husband, yearning and sadness creasing her face.

This was then contrasted with a scene in which Walter prepared a romantic breakfast-by-candle-light for Peter and Olivia, hoping their love would be warmed by his blueberry pancakes. Never subtle about these things, Walter even had a crooning version of “Feelings” streaming out of his record player to set the mood. But as much as Peter and Olivia want each other, Olivia’s feelings of betrayal surfaced once again.

The two scenes were brought together by the Fringe Division case, as Walter theorized that the Brooklyn phenomena had to do with “the energy after death.” Walter said William Bell used to think this energy might be harnessed if he could create “soul magnets.” Trying to make a connection with the dead, Walter asked for the files from an earlier case — the one we know as the third episode of the series’ first season, called “The Ghost Network,” although in “6B” Walter seemed not to detect the mysterious radio frequency that broadcast the emanations of death as they did in that episode.
