Like Denny Craig?

Haha.

Denny Crane, not Craig.

Is anyone else looking forward to this weeks episode?

Dunham (I assume the alternate) as a redhead, what's not to like? :p

Re: Fringe
 

A few thoughts on last night's ep:
-The alternate Statue of Liberty was very dark. Bronze?
-The US map in Walternate's office caught my eye. Something looked off, but I don't have a DVR.
--The trip across "burned out" the Cortexaphan Kids (tm). Will this have an effect on Dunham down the road?
-Who was the leader of the alernate team? Is he one of the Cortexaphan Kids in our universe?
-Was that Nixon on the silver dollar used to do the gravity test?

Re: Fringe
 

No Tivo, so dunno. Regardless, I have to call BS on the show. OK, Olivia is Olivia in both worlds. Walter is Walter, Peter is Peter (or would be, were he not "half-dead"), Martin Luther King Jr. is apparently MLK Jr. there, all the other people are the other people . . . but they never heard of Andrew Jackson? WTF? Does this mean that Col. Jackson was killed down in N'awlins in 1814? And if so, why could not one of those brainiacs mentioned that? :confused:

Hell, I don't expect my fantasy fixes to be logical, but I do expect some logical consistency in my illogic. Does that make sense? You know what I mean, regardless.

Well, we do know that there are some significant differences. Maybe Jackson was never president? I wouldn't expect them to have heard of a specific colonel, no matter how distinguished his career. And maybe whoever was prez in Jackson's place led down a road where technology developed at a slightly quicker pace.

Re: Fringe
 

What's scary is I know exactly what you mean.

But there is an easy, two word explanation.
It's television. ;)

Re: Fringe
 

Yeah, but since I have no life, it's real to me. :r

Re: Fringe
 

Technically that explanation is one word, "it's" is a contraction. ;)

I finally watched last weeks episode.

It was good, but a lot of stuff does not yet add up.

Let's see what tonight brings us.

Re: Fringe
 

Technically, you're a dumb$hit. :r
It's (word #1) television (word #2). Hence, the two word explanation.

Re: Fringe
 

I'm glad we finally have something in common. :D :r

I think I've figured it out. At the end of tonight's ep, Denethor will wake up in Minas Tirith and say, "I just had the strangest dream..." ;)

Re: Fringe
 

What, we talking an alternate Middle Earth now? Kewl.


Last night tied up a number of loose ends for me, but opened up another whole can of worms for next season. Can I wait? Guess I'll have to.

Tried to make a joke (that no one got) referencing the finale of Newhart and the fact that John Noble played Walter and Denethor.
I figured out the Dunham switch right away. Next season will be interesting.

Re: Fringe
 

Eh...My thoughts are that we did a shape shifter / type writer villain when Charlie was taken over.

My issue with time travel is always the same...the slightest change would change everything! i.e. Dunham's mom is alive in alternate universe yet she still works in the FBI there? Her sister is dead in alternate world...which may affect her profession as well.

Anyway, I still watch it and try my best to get over literal "what the hecks?" It is still a fascinating show in that you never know what will happen next!

Re: Fringe
 

I did. Just finished.

It was worth going back and starting over. Couple things tho:

Who exactly was Newton? Why was his head frozen, who froze it and how did he have knowledge of not only Walters brain parts, but the people they were in.

And why was the German so pissed at Bell and why did he want to kill him? He could make a doorway, why did Newton need the brain-memories to figure it out? All he had to do was get the German and he could have extracted his info.

Also, I don't buy Olivias reaction to being imprisoned by Walternate. She wouldn't just break down and beg.


Off to watch Dexter Season 4 now!

I hate baseball.

Re: Fringe
 

I gotta watch tonights episode but let me say ....I liked the first seasons better. This new season MEH. The whole alternate universe plot is just not my thing. I'll keep watching but if it doesn't get better soon I'll probably stop after this season.

Re: Fringe
 

ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?>?!?!?!?!

2 weeks no fringe.......because of baseball :td:td:fl:bh

Re: Fringe
 

This weeks episode, partial interesting. Not bad ....not great.

Re: Fringe
 

DVR should have caught it last night, so I'll get to see it this weekend.

Sad to hear that it was only partially interesting tho. I'd swear I'd seen a clip which lead me to believe that Peter figured her out and tells her to go back....



I think I'll stay out of this thread till I see it........

Re: Fringe
 

This show has really grown on me. I have started to look forward to it each week. It has found it's mojo and has become really interesting. Although I have not caught up with this weeks episode.

Re: Fringe
 

I'll be honest this season is confusing the piss out of me. Maybe I should stop following 18 different shows?

Re: Fringe
 

The only thing that really confused me last night was how Olivia could "jump" out of a tank of water, yet not be totally wet standing in the gift shop. Hell, I was looking forward to seeing that light whith shift plastered to her frame. ;)

Re: Fringe
 

Agreed she's pretty hot

Re: Fringe
 

:tpd:

Re: Fringe
 

Yeah, THAT'S what I'm talkin' about! Hose her down . . . and her alternate, too! :r

Re: Fringe
 

This. She looks hot both blonde and brunette ....2 of her :dr

Re: Fringe
 

Even better as a Redhead... :dr


I'm finding this season a little confusing too. The first season was absolutely the best.

She was wet in the giftshop, but I too would have expected her to have 'sticking' issues with that flimsy outfit. :=:

'Her mind' is fighting back, so this will swing the show again... we'll see how it pans out.

Re: Fringe
 

Agreed the first season was awesome definitely pulled me into the show. This season......barely keeping me watching.

I also wish such issues were present. For realistic purposes of course.....

Re: Fringe
 

Well, it's over. I guess it is appropriate that Walter "atoned" for his sins with his self-sacrifice, since many of the problems - of BOTH universes - were his doing.

Re: Fringe
 

So who squashed the bald guy between 2 cars; the kid or Olivia??????

Re: Fringe
 

My bet's on Olivia, because in some of the early episodes she was described as a "warrior".

Re: Fringe
 

Yeah, I thought that Viv had accessed her telekinetic force and squashed that bald bastid. Remember, she was still highly juiced on the "cortexiphan", even if she was not still able to "jump".

Re: Fringe
 

What I thought too. Before that, they were arguing about what they'd do, and the kid does the "hush" sign, and out comes a plan from someone else that worked. Then, the bald guy gets smashed, and the kid makes the "hush" sign at Olivia, so I figured she did it without really realizing she could or did till the kid shushed her.

I did not always stay up to date with the show, but enjoyed it when I did watch; I liked the finale.
