Fringe is the 4th TV Series co-created by J. J. Abrams (Felicity, Alias, Lost) and third collaboration with Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman (The Transformers, Star Trek, Mission Impossible III, Alias). It is produced by Warner Bros./Bad Robot, and deals with a research scientist named Walter Bishop (who Orci describes as "Frankenstein mixed with Albert Einstein"), his son, and a female FBI agent who brings them back together. The show is being described as a cross between The X-Files, Altered States and The Twilight Zone. Like Abrams' previous TV shows, it will have an overarching mythology. The two-hour pilot, where Walter is in a mental hospital, cost $10,000,000.

The Pattern

"The Pattern" is a general reference to a widespread sequence of unexplained events happening around the world. The Pattern is under investigation by a joint task force of the U.S. Federal Government. Department of Homeland Security Senior Agent Phillip Broyles heads the combined investigative resources and actively directs assigned members, and an Oversight Committee. Agent Olivia Dunham and Dr. Walter Bishop are recruited to replace an ineffective science team whose mission it was to investigate the recurring events and abnormal occurrences. Peter Bishop is coerced to join the science team, as a controlling factor to his erratic father. Junior FBI Agent Astrid Farnsworth was added to the science team to support their day-to-day requirements, and to provide unique insight. FBI Agent Charlie Francis, though not a named member of the science team or joint task force, is on the short-list to provide immediate tactical and investigative support to the science team and the task force. Executive Officer Nina Sharp of Massive Dynamic, is a member of the Oversight Committee, and has intimate knowledge of many of the events related to The Pattern.

Abrams on Fringe

Unlike Lost, another J.J.Abrams show, with Fringe Abrams promises that the arch of the show will be easier to follow, and more accesible for those who skip the odd show. In an interview first published in Sept 2008, Abrams said: "Lost has garnered a certain reputation for being a very complicated show and one that you have to watch every episode. Fringe is in many ways an experiment for us, which is we believe it is possible to do a show that does have an overall story and end game, which Fringe absolutely does. We can do a show that has that, so that there's a direction the show is going and there's an ultimate story that's being told, but also a show that you don't have to watch episodes one, two and three to tune into episode four.
