The original video: Why FRINGE is Scifi's Forgotten MASTERPIECE! 🧬 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iNhmZ9JovZaUZWw.html

RIP lance reddick. He was so good in this show.

"He fell right into her vagenda!" 😆😆😆 I love this show! So so underrated!

I can’t wait to watch a 2 hour documentary on a show I have never watched!

We totally need seasons 4 & 5 videos. Can’t wait for it. Daniel, I don’t agree with you about everything (Sam Weiss rules) but a shared love for this show and your passion for it makes this a delightful way to pass an afternoon. Thanks so much!

everytime she gets to the, “and i dont want to be with you” my heart literally breaks.

For the future, for people who could stumble upon this video while searching content about Fringe, you should add something like "season 3 analysis" to the title.

I love how you not just do a recap of the episodes but actually delve into scifi writing in general and how to craft believable characters and arcs in particular. This is quality content. 10 out of 10 🐄

This might be mentioned later as I'm at the start of the video but one of my favourite little character details in all of media is when a scientist suggests to Walternate that they test their compounds on kids and he flat out refuses to go that far, even though it might help him save his world. Really drives home that the other universe is just as human as ours.

I absolutely loved that Nimoy was so involved in this series. His role as William Bell was brilliant in a cast of other brilliant actors.

Daniel, as a person who experienced extreme trauma during my childhood, I can confirm that there are HUGE holes in my memory. Just blank spaces where people I met and experiences I had are just gone. I even sat beside someone in high school, in a different country, years after being on a track team with her during my younger years in Jamaica, and it took me years, afterwards, to remember where I knew her from. I'd spent years of my childhood in her company, yet, somehow,, my brain had locked those memories away, along with a lot of pain. It's a weird feeling to know that there are parts of my life that are just lost to me. So, Peter and Olivia having their childhood memories of of other not being fully accessible to them is strange, but it's not at all unbelievable to me, even with Olivia's impeccable memory.

The masterpiece that was season 3 is still unmatched. So are the acting skills of Anna Torv or John Noble.

Oh no, the copyright fighting process was so hard Daniel went grey.

I've been waiting for this! I genuinely thought I was the only nerd who remembered Fringe ever existing, so thanks for using your platform to give this show the love it deserves. Can't wait to watch this.

This did not feel like a 2-hour video. A good testament to your writing, performance and editing.

1) Missed opportunity by not collectively calling any group of superpowered folks “The Cortixifam” 2) I truly loved this series watching its original airing, so I LOVE this format of not only critically analyzing it but also going over enough of the plot and character beats that I keep getting to say “oh yeaaaaah that did happen”. It’s basically a very efficient way to re-experience the show from a different viewpoint

i love Joshua Jackson in Fringe, i didnt agree with your previous critique of his performance in the other video, glad to see you giving him some love this time around.

The pre-dino people are Ella, Astrid, Walter, and a few others. This makes the fact that Astrid cracked the code more interesting since she is the one who created the code to crack. She basically writes the code for herself. I actually like the bootstrap of the machine. It makes the timelines like a closed loop/Mobius timeline with branches. I LOVE Time travel stories where effect proceeds a cause.

Joshua Jackson has narrated a few audiobooks for your listening pleasure :)

EXACTLY! I think the decision to let us know it was fake Olivia from the start is great. Every interaction she had with Peter and the rest hurt like a bitch. It's specially tough because the majority of viewers love Olivia to death and we felt for her

Watching our Olivia break down hurts so much, almost made me skip forward a few seconds. But man, these emotions.

I started watching Fringe after 34 minutes of the previous video and now I've just started season 4 so caught up with that video and this one. I'm loving the show so far, but I do agree with a lot of your criticism. One thing though, the "ancient humans". I understood that whole thing to just be fake and a weird way to explain that Walter in fact invented the machine and sent it back in time? Possibly the writers changed their mind and it's a retcon. Or maybe the it comes back again in later seasons.

Binged the show between this and the last video, absolutely one of my favorite series now!

Almost finished and I just have to pause to say I love the fact that the imaginary killer butterfly is holding a butter knife. Chef's kiss.

ASTRID FOREVER!!! (Jasika Nicole also voices one of my favorite sci-fi podcasts and the audiobook version of it "Alice Isn't Dead" - highly recommend)

I love hearing ppl talk about one my my all time fav shows.

More please. I love listening to people talk about stuff they're passionate about

It's very interesting hearing your thoughts on this season. Season 3 was my favourite from memory, even with how wobbly the second half gets. The depiction of two universes at war with two entirely separate sets of ensembles played by the same actors is something I've never seen done even close to well ever again.

Why this didn’t show up on my feed is beyond me… I have watched this series 3 times through. I haven’t watched this video yet but, damnit I know it’s going to be a gem!

Fringe is also one of my all-time favorite shows. I'm glad it's getting some love. I personally would love a deep dive in all the seasons. For nostalgia. ❤

Since you posted your last video, I actually went back and rewatched the entire thing. Thanks so much for helping me relive such an underrated classic!

YES! I miss Fringe I hope more people watch it because of these videos!

Holy- I forgot there was another Fringe video on the horizon! It's 1AM here but I guess it's coffee time!

I really do not notice the time moving.. that is how much I enjoy these videos.

Commenting to get season 4. Good job Daniel, very enjoyable deep dive. Thumbs up.

Loving these fringe videos, Daniel! Can't wait til your season 4 video (please make it)!

Your last vid about fringe reminded me how much i loved it. So ive been rewatching it ever since! Soooo good! ❤😊

This is completely random and not anything to do with Daniel, but a close friend of mine and former roommate was a big fan of the show, and he passed away in December. It feels like after hearing about the show I've been seeing it everywhere. I had, in my Amazon cart, the full DVD box set of the show to get him for Christmas and these videos help me feel close to him. Thank you ❤

This is great! Do you know how hard it is to find a long video about something that’s not only interesting but with a host that isn’t too obnoxious? Good job! I’ll probably watch both of these again within the next few weeks.

I managed to watch this in sections, but as usual, I'm totally impressed on the analysis. I'm rewatching season 4 next, so I'm totally ready for the following analysis.

I love the Gale appearance in the video. I can't add anything to your description of Fringe, it's amazing.

Great breakdown of season 3. First half of this season was probably my favorite of the entire series. For how great this show was, it amazes me so many people have never watched it. Thanks Daniel!

I think that Olivia called her niece the first time she came over from the other side because she needed to check that what Peter (her subconscious) had told her was true. Speaking to her niece was just confirming what she already suspected. That's my reading of it...but I could be completely wrong about that. Yet another brilliant video, thanks for taking the time to make them. All the best from a fellow Fringe fan!

I know these take a lot of time to put together but I am SOOO looking forward to the next one! Please make another!

The ability to relive an entire season of television that I loved in 2 hours? Thank you.

I was a big fan of fringe, it lost me in its last season. Glad you are giving it, the love it deserves.

This is such an underrated show. It never gets enough love❤

I loved watching Fringe as a kid with my mom (who by all rights made me into the nerd I am today), but I was just a tad too young to understand it completely I think. Thank you for taking us through it! I also really love the way you analyze and critique the story and writing

It’s finally happening! This year’s main event: the Fringe retrospective part 2!🎉

I don't agree with every point, but you make some very thought-proviking comments and it's all super entertaining to watch! I look forward to the next one. I do agree that the end of season 3 was not as strong as other seasons. I was also not a fan of the "chosen one" and "prophecy" direction they were taking this in (didn't like it in Alias either, and that's another JJ show I love too) and had the same "wtf?" reaction to Walter's explanation about Peter going back to make a different choice. Josh Jackson's comic "Peter and the Machine" made some strides in trying to explain this, and while I liked it, it was really hard to wrap my mind around it. But I love the characters and the actors do such a great job with them, that I just decide to go with it and suspend disbelief massively. What makes Fringe amazing is ultimately the character development and relationships. The sci-fi elements are fun, but to me, they are simply an interesting backdrop. As for the seasons, season 4 started weak, IMO, and got better as it progressed. Season 5, btw, is one of my favorite seasons, probably right after season 2. I'm with you, I like it better than season 3, but the first half of season 3 is fantastic.

I've been eagerly anticipating this one! After the first video I rewatched the show for the first time in about 6 years and also got my other half into it who was a first time viewer (and fell in love with it). We managed to devour all 5 seasons in the space of a month.

I apparently didn’t get a notification you even did the first fringe video, I’ve got 5 hours of pure enjoyment. I just finished this one, and Daniel, these videos are incredible. I really appreciate you, thank you so much!! I sincerely hope you will cover the last seasons because damn do I love watching you dissect this series.

I don't know if someone has said this already; but I greatly think Mr.Goblin here would thoroughly enjoy Torchwood; as it's a British version of a pretty similar concept - complete with appropriate levels of JANK

This is my favorite show of all time, and you do a great job explaining why much better than I ever could. This might be my favorite overall season of the show, and definitely has some of my favorite episodes. Please keep this up, I'm interested to hear what you think of the final season.

Sooo happy you uploaded a second video on Fringe!! It is the best show ever, and it happens to be my comfort show too. The plot, the lovable characters, the friendships, they are all impeccable. Can't express how excited I am to delve into this 2-hour video :)

glad someone else also loves Charlie, 10/10 character right there. I loved the beginning of this show but dropped it after Peter's amnesia (sigh). Glad to hear the next season gets better, I might pick it back up!

I agree with every point you made. Fringe is one of my all-time favorite shows but the midpoint of season three is where i usually lose momentum during a rewatch. Great video!

I've had the 80s theme as my ringtone since I watched the first part of you covering the series. Such a banger

Watched the whole thing on a different account at work. I love hearing your opinion on the stories I’ve enjoyed, thanks for all this work towards something you obviously care about.

That '85 opener SLAPS, I want that as my ringtone.

Video 2 LETS GO!! Thank you for continuing to share your thoughts and insights on what is also one of my favorite shows of all time.

Well done sir! A brilliant video. And RIP to Lance Reddick.

subject 13 is a top 5 episode it always gets me my jaw dropped when you said that

Love this so much, I adore Fringe even season 5 !

Really appreciate you pointing out that just because you can criticize some elements of some thing doesn’t mean the whole thing should be thrown away.

I've been looking forward to this. I wonder if this can get a limited sequel series where we get one or two mini series with the original monster of the week format with one narrative arc that's tied up with 8-16 episodes. I really loved Olivia when I watched the show.

I watched Fringe before The Wire, so watching this recap made me realise - shout out to the cab driver played by Andre Royo, aka Bubbles from The Wire! He can do so much with so little screen time

I love Daniel for putting out hours on a show he loves. I'm probably not going to watch Fringe, but I'll watch this, just as I did the previous one.

Man thanks for taking me back to the first adult-oriented show that I became obsessed with. I haven't revisited it in years and you're reminding me why I loved it so so so much.

I have been waiting for this!!! Fringe is definitely underrated and such a great show!! Absolutely love your fringe content!!! 😊

As an old person who watched the X-files first run as a kid, as an adult Fringe kind of replaced X-files as the canonical weird science show to watch first. It deserved far better than it got, but I deeply love what we have, even with its flaws.

Finally! I was so waiting for this!

Loved it! Looking forward to the season 4 video!

Been waiting for this one. Glad you were able to finish the whole thing!

Been waiting and guess who always delivers!🙌🏼 Thank you!

I love you for doing this ! this series is so great and this is like doing a rewatch but better

This is an amazing quality video, how does it not have more views? You are seriously underrated

Always love hearing you talk passionately about a series... even if I've never watched/read it :)

This is wonderful, Daniel! Thank you for reminding me of all the details I LOVE about this amazing show.

Great video, renewing my love for this show :)

Brilliant, well done Daniel. I would absolutely love to see you do this kind of deep dive on Battlestar Galactica. Another awesome sci fi series that really hit with impactful human drama.

Genuinely some of your most entertaining videos, love the commentary and narration, keep em coming!!

Commenting for the algorithm, but will watch when I get through the show itself. I love these kinds of videos.

So good! I really enjoyed this breakdown. Can’t wait for the next!

Pretty sure I had watched part 1 in 2-3 sitting, but by god I watched this all in one go! Can’t wait for the next!!

Haven’t clicked on a video so fast! I have been waiting for this one

Thanks for making another video about Fringe! My favourite show!!

I love everything you do but I really loved these videos. You are so much fun to watch and hope you get to do this again with more SciFi shows

I’ve been looking forward to this!! Such a great video

Thank you for this video! I love Fringe and the hype around part 1 inspired me to do my own rewatch. Thanks for all you do here.

hell yeah been waitin for this!

So glad you dropped this installment! I was hoping you would. And I'll be waiting for the next season review with just as much anticipation. Thank you for your work.

originally subscribed to your channel for WoT videos, which I was watching at the time! then I saw you had a video praising a show I had never heard of before, so I decided to watch the show before watching the video - five seasons of Fringe later, I can finally watch, as it turns out, not one but TWO videos you made about it! ❤

Fringe is one of the few shows where I can say "I love that season even though I don't jam with the big myth arc of the season", meaning the vacuum in this case.

If I could like this video multiple times I would. Looking forward to the rest of the series

Loved this and Part 1, please continue the series. Didn't finish watching the show for some reason, life. This is wondrous way to revisit this series all these years later. Many internet points to you and your editor for putting together an insightful and engaging discussion.

Me and my husband finished Fringe a few days ago and I'm so happy I saw your recommendation because it's my favourite sci-fi show too. We watched both of your breakdown videos and can't wait to see the breakdown for season 4 and 5. Season five had both of us in tears so many times. Such a great show.

Yay! Gonna cast this on my TV while I do my puzzle. Despite never watching Fringe (although I had friends who LOVED it), I found the first video super engaging.

Thanks Daniel been looking forward to this!

OK. So have now just finished s4 rewatch! Omg! I can't believe I forgot how excellent this was! Thankyou Daniel for reminding me of it , this rewatch has been phenomenal !! Big thankyou to you ❤😉😊
