Fringe: Olivia

It would seem that Fringe is my favorite show of the 2010 fall season. The strength of this episode combined with the passing of Lost and the absence of Caprica has made Fringe the most important appointment television on my DVR (appointment DRV is kind of like jumbo shrimp, I know).

Olivia has been medically transformed into believing she is Folivia with apparently no way of getting back to her universe. That said, I believe her new friend the cab driver with the heart of gold will help her find her way once again. He had no real reason to help her as much as he did considering she would have been locked up with ease if he turned on her. He most certainly did not have to toss his cab’s geo-location device out the window. He also stuck around after she told him to go which leads me to believe he either believes her or he is somehow connected to the real world.

Folivia, on the other hand, has settled in to Olivia’s life without incident. I wonder when she will meet her “sister” and “niece”. That should have some effect on her desire to end our world. That and Walter’s good nature compared to Walternate. I did not know I cared so much about the Peter/Olivia relationship until Folivia kissed Peter on the steps of the capital building and I felt completely robbed.

Speaking of Peter, if he and Olivia are having an intimate relationship, how long before Peter notices her discreetly placed tatoo? How long before Peter realizes she is not the woman he fell in love with? Knowing Peter it should not take too long, he is a genius after all.

Anyway, Fringe is back, and I’m excited!
