Fringe

With the writers’ strike officially over, it’s now time for us to start anew. Let’s try to forget the repeats we’ve had to endure and focus on something else: the new Fall TV schedule!

There are many questions we all need to get answered. When will your favorite shows start?  What days are they now on?  Which DVR programming ‘conflicts’ will you have to resolve?  Will you need to buy another television???

(NOTE: This schedule has been updated as of August 26. Don’t be surprised to see changes in the weeks to come.)

Now for the show’s eleventh season, the producers will once again be challenging our concept of beauty. For the first time, the series will be introducing its first transgendered contestant. During her interview before the judges’ panel, 22-year-old Isis explained why she chose to transform herself from a man to a woman. “I was born physically male...but mentally, everything else, I was born female.”
