Fans hoping that John Noble would finally get that Emmy nomination he deserves are going to be disappointed, because FOX has decided not to promote Fringe's fifth and final season for Emmy consideration.

According to FOX's PR site, Fringe is not being provided for Emmy voters' consideration. Precious little of the network's drama fare is, though: only The Following and Bones are being pushed by the network as contenders. The Following us undoubtedly trying to get nominations for leads Kevin Bacon and James Purefoy, but Bones, really? Its actors are good at what they do, but they're not the best on television by a long shot.

Fringe fans are certain to be disappointed. The sci-fi series, which ended its five-year run in January, was fantastic for many reasons, not the least of which was absolutely fantastic performances by its three leads -- particularly John Noble, who played mad scientist in search of redemption Walter Bishop, and Anna Torv, who played the superpowered but still incredibly vulnerable FBI agent Olivia Dunham. Both received critical acclaim for their work on the series, but the Emmys never reciprocated with nominations for either (despite the continued disappointment of fans and critics alike).

Now, it looks like an Emmy nomination is simply not to be for the series or anyone involved. It's a shame, but it was to be expected, really. Fringe has ended; the network has no reason for it to win any awards. The Emmys, if you don't know by now, aren't really about fanservice.

      Yes, it was amusing at the time because even then dbrand was well known for stealing the designs of products from other companies. That’s what they do.

      Didn’t Dbrand once complain that Casetify was ripping off their designs a well? seems pretty bad of them to try and get around Valve’s copyright this way with that in mind.

      Dbrand thought they could get away with this Steam Machine case, Valve disagreed by David Uzondu Image via Dbrand Dbrand has cancelled its highly anticipated Companion Cube enclosure for the Valve Steam Machine, which it teased back in November of last year with a concept render and sign-up page, because it did not ask Valve for permission first before manufacturing the case. According to Dbrand, it took the "backwards approach" of building the product first before asking for permission from the copyright holder. Seven months of work went into the project, requiring over a thousand engineering hours from the design team. Workers developed forty-four sets of injection molding tools, making a unique mold for each sub-component of the crate. When the Companion Cube went live on Monday last week, it, according to Dbrand, quickly became the second-fastest-selling product in the company's fifteen-year history, racking up orders for hundreds of thousands of units. Customers eagerly bought the $129.95 deluxe edition or the bare-bones $99.95 version, which the manufacturer cheekily branded as the "Poverty Cube". It was around this time that the legal eagles at Valve descended on the accessory maker with a formal demand. The developer pointed out that the iconic block design remains protected intellectual property from the game Portal, so unlicensed sales had to stop. Dbrand said that all its pleas to salvage the project with the Valve team, including proposals to run a properly licensed release under official terms "with their blessing", fell on deaf ears, so it had no choice but to obey and remove every trace of the product from the internet. If you bought the enclosure, the company said that banks will process your refund by the end of this week, but if it still hasn't arrived in your account by then, you should not hesitate to contact support. The Steam Machine itself is a high-performance console that Valve designed directly to bring PC gaming into the living room. It was announced on 12th November 2025 (the same day Dbrand announced the Cube) and runs on the Linux-based SteamOS, the same OS that powers the Steam Deck. As for the price, due to the shortage of memory and storage chips, the hardware cost landed much higher than people were expecting, starting at $1,049 for the 512 model (without a controller) or $1,128 with the new gamepad. The premium 2 TB model pushes those prices even higher, selling at $1,349 for the standalone console and hitting $1,428 if you want the bundle.
