I am 10 episodes in and already hooked. I remember watching the first 3 episodes when they premiered and lost interest because of the "monster of the week" model. I guess being 5 years older makes me not mind it so much.
However, I am wondering if the entire season is like this. When does it start to really build on itself? I know it is doing that now but very slowly and only a few scenes at a time. I cant wait for shite to get real as I've heard it does. I wonder what sort of research they did to come up with some of these ideas.
anyone read an interview where they talked about the "science" behind the show? really fascinating show all around.

Yes, first season is monster of the week and then they start tying an overall arch together towards the end of the first season/second season. Then each season has a story arch that it builds on.
I wasn't crazy about the final season as a whole so i might eventually drop back and blow through all of them again.

not even a little bit. one of the most well written storylines in the history of television
eta: I thought you said entire series just notice you said season. the second half of season 1 starts to go away from monster of the week

Everything you see from the first minute of the first episode is rather important. The "monster of the week" vibe is both a deliberate move to have easily identifiable episodes, but also a ruse. The show is as serial as they come.

Honestly, I think Fringe may be the best show ever done. If you are into Science fiction at all it is a must watch.
