Fringe, the consistently quirky supernatural drama, has won a third season from Fox.

A renewal for the series was expected: though it's slipped a bit in the ratings it's still given Fox a strong position on Thursdays, which have been very competitive this year. Fringe is up against a sharply divided field that includes The Office, Supernatural, CSI, and Grey's Anatomy. Though Fringe does lose some audience from its hit lead-in, Bones, it's clear Fox sees them as a good match. (I wonder if anyone's pondering a cross-over episode? I'd love to see Dr. Brennan talking to Walter about--well, anything.)

Kevin Reilly, entertainment president of the Fox Broadcasting Company, had already expressed confidence in Fringe last week, suggesting it was likely to return. "People haven't abandoned Fringe," Reilly said then, responding to the show's ratings erosion and lead-in fall-off. "It just may have moved to their second choice; they're picking it up on their DVRs or Hulu. When there's wiggle room in the time period, they come back."

It would help if it were actually on the air. Fringe is currently on hiatus until April 7.

• Justin Time (2010). Wow, I can't believe no one has used the play on words "justin time" before for a movie about a kid named Justin who can manipulate time! Wait ... wait ... yes I can. From producer-director-writer Rob Diamond (known for festival-friendly indie dramas like Propensity and Tears of a King). If there were a Razzie for worst-Photoshopped poster, this would win, and from the trailer is looks like Clockstoppers with skiing instead of skateboarding; but, on the other hand, it does have Danny Trejo in it, so it can't be all bad.
