How to Watch Fringe

Fringe is a sci-fi television series that ran from 2008-2013 on Fox. While the series has ended, it still holds a strong fan following, and with a recent move to HBO Max, it is enjoying a rewatch (or first-time binge) by many. The series was created by J.J. Abrams, Alex Kurtzman, and Robert Orci, the team that would go on to launch the Star Trek film franchise resurgence. It focuses on the FBI Fringe Division, which investigates unusual crimes and occurrences, which leads them to discover, among other things, their connection to parallel universes. The team includes Special Agent Olivia Dunham (Anna Torv), jack-of-all-trades Peter Bishop (Joshua Jackson), the once-institutionalized scientist Dr. Walter Bishop (John Noble), and FBI Junior Agent Astrid Farnsworth (Jasika Nicole). Read on to learn how to watch Fringe even though it has ended.

• Where to Watch: All five seasons of Fringe are currently available on HBO Max. You can sign up here to watch.

Watch Fringe on IMDBb TV

If you don’t have HBO Max but are interested in trying out Fringe, all five seasons are available through the IMDb TV streaming app. IMDb TV is free, but ad-supported, so you will be watching Fringe with at least some commercials. Amazon Prime Subscribers can access IMDb TV on the Amazon Prime Video app. If you don’t have Amazon Prime, you can download the IMDb TV app and use either an IMDb account login or a regular Amazon login to access IMDb TV.

You can access Prime Video for $8.99 per month, but that only includes access to Prime Video. You do not get shipping, deals, music, storage, and other benefits. When you take the yearly price of Prime, it amounts to $9.92 per month. Therefore, those added Prime perks will cost you less than $1 per month. We are all constrained by budgets, but if you are going to sign up for Prime, you will likely make up the $11 per year in shipping costs and other Prime benefits. You can sign up for Amazon Prime with this free trial link.
