Offering a holistic approach to television criticism, this analytical
companion to the popular show Fringe examines the drama's mythology and
unveils its mysteries while exposing significant cultural issues addressed in
each episode. With a strong basis in science fiction, Fringe has all of the
archetypal characters and themes of the genre, from the covert mastermind and
the mad scientist to dangerous advances in technology, parallel worlds, and
man-made monsters. Along with many other post-9/11 television shows aired in
the West, Fringe has demonstrated a society's collective paranoia about
foreign invaders, on the one hand, and domestic corruption on the other. It
also lays bare the fear of radical advances in technology and urges its
viewers to ponder the ethical limitations of science. This guide explores how
the show uses these elements to tap into a deeper understanding of the human
experience. Less focused on individual episodes, this book is split into three
parts, each discussing a broad element of the narrative experience of the
first three seasons of this multilayered show.
