Cheers: Fringe's Torv De Force

Anna Torv by George Holz/Fox

Cheers to J.J. Abrams for casting another dy-no-mite actress in one of his shows. The man who brought us Keri Russell ( Felicity), Jennifer Garner ( Alias) and Evangeline Lilly ( Lost) has discovered another kick-ass femme with Fringe's Anna Torv. The little-known Aussie displays a flawless American accent and brings a welcome gravitas to Abrams' outlandish sci-fi rookie as an FBI agent investigating X-Files-ish mysteries. (Plus, Abrams found a good excuse to get Torv to strip down her soaking-wet skivvies in the pilot.) If only slightly miscast costar Joshua Jackson could keep Pacey...er, pace.
