What’s that sound, J.J.?:

The prolific writer-producer told TelevisionWeek on Monday that, yes, he has penned the theme song for “Fringe.”

The string-heavy introduction to “Fringe” came to Mr. Abrams while he was getting ready to go to bed one night.

TV Guide on helping confused fans:

“Fringe is in many ways an experiment for us,” says Abrams. “We’re trying very deliberately to do a show that doesn’t require the insane absolute dedication to a series that if you miss an episode, you have no idea of what is going on.”
