Get excited Fringe fanatics, your show is back this Friday in its new time-slot at 9:00pm on FOX. If you think Fringe has been lacking some Observer action, it looks like you are in like. There is not indication that this week's episode, "The Firefly", will feature the Observer other than the usual blink-or-you'll-miss Easter egg hunt, but this new video from FOX certainly seems to suggest that the Observers are about to become very important again.

And finally, here is a look ahead at "The Firefly" with a few promo pics from the episode, which features the always entertaining Christopher Llyod in what is bound to be a memorable guest spot. Warning: mild spoilers ahead in these pics.
In the midseason premiere, which kicks off a string of six all-new episodes of FRINGE, an Observer makes contact with the Fringe Team to help rectify a mistake. Meanwhile, Walter befriends Roscoe Joyce (guest star Lloyd), keyboardist for Walter's favorite 1970s band, “Violet Sedan Chair.” Walter will learn the real reason the band broke up, and realize that the lives of these two men, who have never met before, overlap in strange and unexpected ways in the all-new “The Firefly” episode of FRINGE airing Friday, Jan. 21 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. (FR-310) (TV-14 V)
