Fringe! I still haven't gotten around to watching the pilot, although I have it sitting in my backpack. This fall I watched, like, nothing after DW ended, although I finally did see my first episode of Buffy and a couple episodes of Futurama.

That is a very interesting and sensible theory re: River. I am still edgy about what they did this season, but I am nonetheless looking forward to the Christmas special. :D
