It's interesting thoughts about Illuminati. We should keep it in mind, since JJ Abrams used Illuminati Symbolics also in his other works. But I found a tendence in his works to develope his own conspiracies, which are perhaps leaning on the famous secret societies, but which are existing only in his shows. Milo Rambaldi from Alias, for example: this Da Vinci clone was a mythology, which Abrams developed himself. The same about Dharma Initiative. So I suppose, we can keep in mind the symbolic of existing (or not existing) secret societies, but we have always to know, JJ Abrams makes his own universe.

And yes, we should make our horizon widely: MD.com isn't only website we shall look for.

This is pretty great thing they have said. So we could in some ways influence the story (even if the most of episodes seem to be ready filmed, they have everytime possibilty to build in some new things, like we saw it in broadcasted pilot vs leaking pilot)

In this case I appeal to show producers: there are many many people outside of US admiring your works and playing your ARGs. Since Fringe could be real-time ARG (parallelism of show and ARG), do something about avialability of the show outside of US. Because one day "Fringe" will come e.g. to Europe, but the ARG will be ended or in progressive state of beeing, so the non-US audience won't perhaps get the full enjoyment of Fringe...

I know, it's really naive appeal, nobody will listen to it, and these "country restricting things" have money as an important reason... But it's really pity...

I'm just thinking about Cloverfield... They did nothing in Germany - no ARG, no manga, nothing (beside of some TV ads). So at the premiere, as I was in the theatre, the cinema hall was half full (or half empty). Because nobody knew, what's this movie (besides of people, who was reading some German CF-blogs, mines for example, hehe).

And in US "Cloverfield" premiere was über-successful, like an impact (mostly because of ARG).

@kosmopol:

I don't think you're missing much. I watch the episodes online the day after they broadcast, even though I live in America, and it works fine for me. I suspect the quick uploads are for just the reason you mentioned; non-USers who want to play the ARG can still keep up with things online.

What? Glass Helmets? That's cool! Oh, I am impressed by them. I like such crossovers (like Slusho in Heroes

@madamimadam
Yes, I'm really happy, it is available online. I installed Hotspot Shield, so I can watch the show parallel with its premiere.
