Fringe makes Friday nights their bitch, wins their timeslot AND goes up in the ratings
By some miracle of magic or science, Fox’s Fringe made its Friday night debut and did not go down in the ratings.
The episode - titled “The Firefly” (nicely ironic considering the show’s move to Fox’s infamous Death Slot) - actually improved upon its most recent Thursday performance.
Fringe delivered 4.9 million viewers and a 1.9 preliminary adults 18-49 rating last night. Remember, Fox’s Kevin Reilly said if the show maintains its Thursday numbers on Friday, he’d renew it, so let’s hope the show can keep this up.
