A recent interview with JJ Abrams covering most of the familiar territory except for this one detail I was not familiar with which updates Woody Allan's Zelig - love it (oh & the site looks interesting too):

Finally, Abrams is also testing his creativity on different media with the TV series Fringe. One of the characters, scary and mysterious, appears furtively in each episode, each time an event linked to the Fringe division takes place. He is called “the observer”, always wears the same black suit, and has the distinctive sign of being bald. In a “Where’s Charlie” manner, Abrams has inserted his character in different TV programs. We can therefore see him during important events like the Superbowl, in the front rows of the game, in the stands of a racing team during an Formula 1 race or in the audience of the famous American series American Idol.
