Fringe Twitter Event – Friday, April 27th : Worlds Apart

more than one of everything Posted on by

At the start of the season, the Bridge between worlds kept the two universes stable, while linking them together. Now, David Robert Jones’ plan is threatening the two universes with catastrophe on an apocalyptic scale. Everyone from both worlds will need to work together to save everything they love. There will also be a link to some well-known characters from the past. Hopefully this may answer some of the lingering questions surrounding them. As we reach the final three episodes, tensions are high concerning the show’s renewal status. We all need to keep our spirits up and keep doing what … Continue reading →

more than one of everything Posted on by

Sorry in the delay in getting this information up but it is all good news I promise! In the eleventh campaign aimed at raising awareness of the large Fringe fandom that exists in social spaces not (yet) covered by Nielsen’s, Fringies united April 13th to tweet #AcrossTheUniverse. This is the first time I’ve observed us hit the worlwide trends so quickly and at such a high position. From where I was looking, #AcrossTheUniverse jumped into second position in the worldwide trends within the first few minutes of event start (by a few minutes, I mean THREE). The hashtag stayed in … Continue reading →

Alas we are still awaiting news regarding #Fringe. However, we are feeling really great energy around this week’s campaign and with both our showrunners Jeff Pinkner and Joel Wyman AND Josh Jackson joining fans in livetweeting sesssions during episode 4.19 “Letters in Transit”, this 12th campaign is sure to be another success.

(Please note file names with .gif  in titles are animated icons). Examples from … Continue reading →

A Very Long Wait for Some #VeryShortLoveStory Contest Results!

more than one of everything Posted on by

  A Very Long Wait for Some #VeryShortLoveStory Contest Results!   EDIT: Please scroll to the bottom to read!!   There’s a story in which Ernest Hemingway and friends were sitting around one evening, being all writery, when a bet was made as to whether a story could be told in less than 10 words. The others scoffed but Hemingway was certain, and once the money was on the table he settled the bet with haunting finality, scribbling the following quickly on a napkin: For sale: Baby shoes. Never worn. While the validity of the legend may be in dispute, … Continue reading →

Fringe Twitter Event – Friday, April 20th : Fight The Future!

more than one of everything Posted on by

It has arrived! This week’s episode is the much-anticipated nineteenth of the season. Like season two’s Brown Betty, and season three’s Lysergic Acid Diethylamide, season four’s Letters of Transit is sure to be innovative and a primer for the next season. I don’t want to discuss the episode too much, but let’s just say the future is not looking bright for our two universes, and the Observers are involved. Plus, LOST fans will be thrilled to see guest star Henry Ian Cusick. It is fitting to see “Desmond” playing a role in “another life” on Fringe.

#FaceYourself – Campaign Results for April 6th

more than one of everything Posted on by

The groans from fandom was palpable when Nielsen ratings dipped to a 1.0 for the episode “Everything in its Right Place” featuring both the Lincoln Over Here and the one Over There. The truth is April 6th was the beginning of some very big religious holidays (Good Friday and Passover) and we expected that many people would have obligations prioritized over that of watching Fringe live. We can’t control the Nielsen ratings so how did we fare with the campaigns in social network space? SOLID. Good enough to hit worldwide trends in a little over 10 minutes and to sustain … Continue reading →

more than one of everything Posted on by

After last week’s loss of Captain Lee, this next episode is going to be bittersweet. In his honor, @cheribot has designed a picbadge that can be worn on a Twitter or Facebook profile. Though the tears for a fallen hero have barely dried, life goes on in the Fringeverses. Walter will be assisting the Over There Fringe team with a Fringe event investigation in this Friday’s episode, The Consultant. Plus, David Robert Jones will reveal his next target – will it be something huge? From the promotional video for this episode, I definitely have a feeling that this is one you … Continue reading →

Social Fringe Fans: Shaping the Future of Television Viewing, Marketing and Interaction

more than one of everything Posted on by

This past week, a Social TV Summit was held that included 200 television industry executives. What does this have to do with Fringe, you may ask? The answer is that the emergence of this activity – which blends watching television with social media outlets like Twitter- may very well be what keeps beloved, ratings-challenged shows like Fringe, on the air. It also gives insight to the business end of television –how can all of this activity possibly be used to monetize a show? Fans can be quick to damn the networks for killing our favorite shows, but in the end, … Continue reading →
