i think it becomes serial but at first Abrams admits to wanting to make a show you could jump on at a random part. he said he saw an old episode of alias and had no clue what was going on. he wanted to make this very different.

The problem with Alias wasn't that it was serial, but because it started to suck. Same with Lost essentially. It just became too much. Too loose. Too convenient. They INTENDED to trick the viewer, rather than tell a good story. So every season, every cliffhanger, was designed to trick the audience.

Fringe is the opposite of those. It just gets tighter as it moves along, but doesn't stray too far from center. Fringe just wants to tell a good story, not trick the audience. It just happens to do that sometimes. And that makes those moments far more important.

You shall see, no worries.
