It has been reported by Variety that the FOX Netwprk has officially picked up “Fringe,” J.J. Abrams’ new series about a young female FBI Agent who tackles cases involving unexplained medical and scientific phenomena.

I think this would be a great companion to Joss Whedon’s “Dollhouse,” should they choose to air it on the ever-competitive Thursday night slot. But I don’t know when either of those shows will air on FOX, so it should be interesting either way.

Needless to say, I will be tuning in . . .
