Fringe: A New Day in an Old Town

Let’s start with the bad. Olivia has short term amnesia, really? That is a bit of an upsetting way to start this season.

Charlie has been killed off! That is extremely unfortunate considering Charlie was a standup guy who Olivia could count on and did not have ulterior motivations. Though it should not have been too surprising considering they hired the new female FBI agent (and the actor who plays Charlie posted that he got fired from Fringe on his Facebook page last May).

The government did not realize that Fringe Division was worthy of funding with all the crazy crap that happens in the universe of this show? Hopefully they can end that storyline now that Peter has given them the magic appearance changing box.

Despite the stuff that I didn’t like, I really did enjoy this episode. Peter is really continuing to take a leadership role. It wasn’t Broyles that saved Fringe division it was Peter. Speaking of Broyles how creepy was that kiss between him and Nina? It seemed like a threat on her part, though everything seems like a threat on her part.

Walter was just fine in this episode, I love that he still can’t remember Astrid’s name. Also, he continues to mistake his Peter’s childhood for this Peter’s childhood. I can’t wait for Peter to figure out who he really is.

I liked Agent Amy Jessup, though I can’t believe that I am watching two prime time network TV shows that require me to have semi-mastered knowledge of the Old Testament.
