One of my favorite shows, so I was really looking forward to this and was not disappointed. They brought out executive producers Jeff Pinkner and J.H. Wyman, then Anna Torv, John Noble, Lance Reddick, Blair Brown, Jasika Nicole, and new series regular Seth Gable. But no Joshua Jackson.
This was addressed right off the bat. The execs explained that bigger roles, movie roles, sometimes took actors away, and they were looking for a replacement. You’ll see some familiar faces:

But never fear…

The EPs and Anna were asked if Olivia would learn how to better control her powers in the new season, and they answered that anything they said about that would be too spoilery, but then went on to say… you’ll see in the next clip. Also, Jasika was asked about any developments in her role in the upcoming season.

Anna had been asked to “do your Nimoy voice” at another con, but this was a little different:

My favorite question of the day was, if Walter needed to get a message to an earlier time, why didn’t he just write a note? The reply was that there must have been a reason, which may be explored in future episodes.
It was a little disappointing that there were no new clips from future episodes, but it was great hearing Anna’s and John’s accents, and seeing everyone in person, and maybe getting a few hints about what’s to come.
Fringe season 4 is scheduled to premiere on Friday, September 23 at 9/8c on Fox.
