Fringe: Jacksonville


Now that was interesting.  Fringe has been a show in a bit of a holding pattern since they came back after winter break and it was nice to see the series arch progress significantly.  That being said I really am starting to worry that the episode which had Charlie back from the dead really was some kind of aberration and not part of the overall plan for this series.

But let's focus on the good.  Worlds are colliding and things are getting out of control.  In what seems like the Star Trek transportation device gone terribly wrong, a building from the other dimension mixed particles with the same building in our dimension causing people to fuse with themselves, other people, and the structure itself.  

Olivia met the child version of herself in her own head and got really upset with Walter over his treatment of her back during a period of her life which she does not remember, even though she has a freakishly good memory.  This whole story was written in order for Olivia to finally notice that Peter is not of her world. Meaning that Walter, Astrid, and Olivia all know that Peter is not who he thinks he is, I hope Olivia tells him.

In the alternate dimension there are areas of the world that are uninhabitable because of a "blight".  Additionally, the Twin Towers were saved on September Eleventh, but the Pentagon and White House were destroyed.  Coffee for some reason is a rare commodity though it is still easily grown in Hawaii.  The President is currently Obama, but Richard Nixon did not resign from office in shame.  Also, oddly, double decker cars exist in dimension "B".

It's too bad Fringe is going on vacation until April because I'm super excited to see where the story leads us from this point!
