There are loads of reasons to love Fringe, which is currently the best sci-fi show on television and don't even try and argue that. There's a complicated romance that's destined to be. There are cases that even Mulder and Scully would think are weird. There are multiple universes, multiple characters, and multiple mind-benders. But all of those are just are just extras to what the show is really about: Walter Bishop (John Noble) saying some outlandish shit.

Because Fringe's almost-a-month-long hiatus ends this Friday, what better way to get excited about the show's return than to watch a compilation of some of the craziest things Walter has said? This two-minutes-plus reel of "Walterisms" premiered during the Fringe panel at WonderCon over the weekend, but now it's online for everyone to see. So pour yourself some grape soda, take a dose of your favorite LSD, and watch Walter deliver some of his best lines ever.

Nudity! Pudding! Anuses! That's Emmy-worthy stuff right there.

Fringe returns with "A Short Story About Love" this Friday at 9pm on Fox. Here's a peek at what to expect; it's also a guarantee that you will stay as far away from Saran Wrap as you can for the next few days.
