The final upfront: a muscular Fox adds just two new shows

Fringe_annamark_fl9v2_2Not needing much new programming after beating the other networks senseless in the Nielsen ratings this season, and not having much to choose from anyway after a writers' strike laid waste to production development, Fox is adding only two shows to its fall schedule, the company's executives said Thursday. And one of them is the most highly anticipated dramas of the fall season: Fringe, a sci-fi thriller from J.J.
