Question: What is the deal with Fringe? They keep dragging out this renewal/cancellation business and it is making me really mad! They need to make a decision. —Brian


Ausiello: I thought for sure today was the day we’d hear something. I’m pretty sure a decision to bring the show back for a fifth and final season has been made, with the two sides just trying to make the numbers work. But I’d be lying if I said the delay isn’t worrisome. In the meantime, we asked John Noble at last week’s opening of the Beverly Hills Paley Center’s “Television: Out of the Box” exhibit if any of the May 11 season finale would take place in the Alt Universe, and he said, “Not in the actual final episode, but you’ll see a lot of it in the one before.” We also presented Josh Jackson with the theory that Olivia being fated to die will tie in with the mysterious Mr. X seen in last year’s animated episode. His response? “That’s a good theory. You’re close, actually. Not all the way there, but you’re close.”

  1. I really hope Warner Brothers reduces its fees to something close to zero. Its probably the only thing that will get a short Season 5 to wrap things up. I really hope they work something out. Was really hoping ratings would head back up to 1.5 for 18-49 demo but instead its gone to CW like levels below 1.0. One plus is when Live+ ratings from DVR and On Demand services it goes up 50% or so. This is going to boil down to money. Fox wont do even a short Season 5 if it losing money on the show. If it must end I hope the LOST/Fringe series concept airing on cable network is being thought about by JJ. Even if it gets a season 5, he should still be thinking about it!
