YES. OBVIOUSLY I AM DOWN WITH THIS SELECTION. This show sort of started out as a supernatural CSI, but the character development totally blew me away. The different relationship dynamics are stellar and quite a few of them (like the father-son relationship between Walter and Peter and Walter's relationship with Astrid) are unique on television. As for the mytharc, it's so incredibly well-crafted. I'll get into this more in my Epic Fringe Post of Epic (hopefully coming to your friends list this Wednesday!), but you can really tell that the writers know where they are going with the storyline and it is so thoughtfully plotted. Looking back over the episodes, everything ties together in this wonderful way. For a show that is so "out there" in terms of the subject matter, it excels in the subtle.
There are things I don't like about "Brown Betty"; I don't like that it was created to be a Glee cross-promotion (STFU GLEE) and I think they could have used maybe one more episode in Peter's "over there" arc (he seemed to return quite suddenly
