A final farewell to Fringe, some sobering thoughts on the end of Alphas and much, much more in the latest Tweets Of The Week
Anyone who reads SFX , online or in print, will know how much we love Fringe . The show came to an end last Friday night, and was broadcast simultaneously in the UK and the US; little surprise then that #Fringe, #KeepLookingUp and #WeCrossedTheLine (each episode’s dedicated hashtag) were trending for most of the evening (take that Bieber!)
It was a show that found its weird, mutated feet late in its first year on the air, and rarely dipped in quality for its remaining four. A significant part of its continued survival in the cut-throat world of US network TV was the outpouring of support it received online over that half decade, much of which was organised via Twitter. It seems only fitting then that for Fringe ’s final bow we highlight the thoughts and thanks of those involved expressed via Twitter.

TV networks really should consider the long-term damage they do to viewing by canceling fan favorite shows without any kind of closure.
Canceling shows is sometimes a prudent business decision. But not doing a few episodes or a TV movie to wrap up teaches fans not to invest.
Sad to hear about the cancellation of #Alphas , particularly since the show employed several dozen of my friends.
Movie Pitch: In the year 2033, a legion of arched eyebrow assassins emerge, who have grown up consisting only on Sky's 24 hour 007 channel.
People who prefer the voiceover version of 'Blade Runner' are CRAZY.
Have realized there are so many things I know nothing about, I may have to change my name to Jon Snow.
Some very exciting news re An Adventure in Space and Time, Dr Who bio we start filming in 2 weeks. I'd tell you but I'd have to kill you.

Taking a break. Playing #MirrorsEdge . What an incredibly unique game.
Amazing! Surprise screening of Star Wars Episode VII at this morning's Illuminati meeting. So great.
Really enjoyed Mama - it's got that same combo of haunted house creeps %26 genuine heart that made The Orphanage tick. I COMPEL YOU TO SEE IT.
how awesome would it be if lance armstrong denied doping, but told oprah that his home planet exploded and his father sent him to earth.
Now repeat after me: Jedis and Yoda: Science Fantasy Starfleet and Tricorders: Science Fiction MBB
Just to be absolutely clear. 1952, directed by Brad Bird, will NOT be in 3D. We are, however, considering Smell-O-Vision.
Hope you lot are as excited as I am about the Walking Dead episode with Zombowie! (cheers to @iamjustinwright for pic) pic.twitter.com/shnj1Ivo
