'Fringe' Gets Full Season From Fox

Attracting those special demographics that advertisers love seems to go a long way for Fox.

The network has ordered a full season of "Fringe," its lead-out show from "House" on Tuesday nights, making it just the second new show this season behind The CW's "90210" to get such an honor so far.

"We're having a blast working on this show with this great team of producers," Fox Entertainment president Kevin Reilly told TV Week. "The series has really taken off creatively, and it's exciting to see that the audience is responding. We believe this is the first full season of many years to come."

"Fringe" is the latest project from J.J. Abrams, and brought in Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman -- the writers of the upcoming "Star Trek" movie -- to get the show off the ground. While the overall ratings haven't blown any competition out of the water, it's a leader among new shows in the adults 18 to 49 demographic, the audience advertisers work to capture the most.

The show stars Joshua Jackson, John Noble and Anna Torv. It follows a Homeland Security investigator, a slightly-out-of-his-mind doctor and his son as they try and track down occurrences that are bending science and part of what the government believes is an overall pattern leading to something larger.

"Fringe" airs Tuesdays at 9 p.m. ET on Fox.
