re: *OFFICIAL* Fringe M/TV Board rewatch thread (current episodes discussion p. 60)

For example, your "episode 12" review is actually talking about "What Lies Below," which is actually episode 13.

My comments on last week's episodes...

E10 (Grey Matters).

Cool episode, and one again we get into Walter's mind, literally this time. This seems to be a theme throughout the show like I said earlier in the thread, like when later on in S5 (I think) when they have to find all kinds of shite hidden unknowingly by Walter.

This Thomas Jerome Newton character...I forget how important he was overall back when the show aired. Is he prevelant at all?

Unearthed.

Standalone episode. Not a bad one though, as it was cool that this girl was mentally possessed by the Russian soldier dude. But all in all, nothing really important, aside from Charlie magically being alive.

Johari Window.

I remember this Wrong Turn/Children of the Corn/Hills Have Eyes-ish episode. Cool episode. And gotta love young Shawn from Psych as the deformed kid.

Another standalone episode though, as it is wrapped up completely at the end, and the Fringe team doesn't even report what they found in the town.

And good call (I think it was Myth) on Olivia all of a sudden losing her deadeye accuracy against the sheriff and his deputy. Normally she rattles off headshots with her eyes closed, but she missed this time. A lot.

What Lies Below.

I remember this one as well. Another cool episode, and I liked the idea of the virus sort of learning that it needed to get out of the building and contaminate as many people as possible. The one thing that bugged me about it was that Peter got sick like halfway through the episode, and eventually got healed, whereas every other person who got sick seemed to die within minutes (30 minutes is what they said at one point). Seems like them having Peter get sick a little bit later in the episode would've lended a little more credibility to the virus. But it was cool seeing him crazy...he has the psycho look down pretty well.

Several references to Peter previously dying again...can't wait for that to get ramped up in the next few episodes/seasons.

All in all though, even the standalone episodes are still pretty cool/interesting television. I hope to catch the last two for last week tomorrow night and then get to this week's batch and finally be caught up again.


And those pics of bikini-clad Anna Torv are pretty fiya. She is so damn sneaky fine.
