Although, it is a little puzzling that Joshua Jackson did not get a nod. But I think the show will win, as will Anna Torv, John Noble, and Orla Brady.

Ah, thanks for pointing out that Brady was nominated. I missed that when I first looked at the roster.

I’m glad the Saturn Awards appreciate John and Anna, unlike certain other awards I could name.

I love these Saturn Awards because they’re the only ones out there to give Fringe the recognition it needs. So happy for the cast. If only Josh were nominated too.

Anna Torv and John Noble have been nothing short of extraordinary throughout the series and Orla Brady is an amazing actress. So good luck.

Fantastic! I think the biggest competition in the Best Series is OUAT.

And look at the other categories Fringe was nominated in. They are the only actors from Network shows to get a nom. I think that says a lot right there.

Great news!! I think if they will be fair, Fringe will win everything, it’s really the best quality show nominated.

I wish Josh got some love too, he is really great.
