Fringe‘s leading lady Anna Torv spoke about the final season of the show at the San Diego Comic-Con, addressing fans’ anxieties about the end.

Speaking to CNN’s GeekOut, Torv reaffirms that having an end-date for the series is a good thing:

We’re fortunate that we can end the show knowing that we’re ending the show. Our writers are going to be able to do it justice, serving the viewers and serving us as well, because we’ve put a lot in. And we can make it count, knowing we can finish the game.

She also expresses her love for the sci-fi genre, saying:

I’ve always loved sci-fi and I think when people think of sci-fi, they think just of Star Trek. They probably really do love sci-fi, they don’t know that’s what they’re watching. One of my favorite books is Neuromancer. I read that years ago. Lots of stuff is science fiction, it’s not just people in suits. […] I feel really proud that we’ve tipped our hat to the genre, and we’ve done it right. But that’s not me, that’s the guys who write it.

Are you excited for the final season?
