shite, forgot to revisit this thread.

Love the dual universe stuff, and how the episodes switch back and forth between the two.

Altlivia is really different, and Anna Torv plays both characters really well. It's cool how you can tell which is which by the way they act.

Bell died? I know it was dangerous for him to hold the portal open himself, but I didn't remember it killing him.

Awesome acting by John Noble in these episodes, particularly #2, The Box, when he talks to Peter about taking him back to this side 25 (or whatever) years ago.

I was legit caught off guard when that midget's head exploded. That shite freaked me out.

Though I don't remember Bell actually dying, I thought I remembered that Bell left Walter Massive Dynamic. I forgot about that until watching this episode, then it came back to me. I don't remember if anything ever really comes of that though (like anything cool/important I mean).

Defusing this device was as easy as putting a couple of clamps on it, but they feel safe enough to frick with it? How do they know they "turned it off"?

I remember the third episode (The Plateau) being cool with all the chain reactions and stuff.

I loved how with all the people at the scene of that accident, Liv just magically looks around and sees that dude and knows that it's him who is the bad guy. WTF?

I really, really hate Charlie. Don't like the character or the actor. He's horrible.

Though I like this episode, it doesn't make much sense. It's basically to the point that he isn't doing predictive mathematics...he's just literally seeing the future. Still cool, but there's no way he could know all of the things that are gonna happening without seeing them. But I guess it just plays into the whole "Limitless" (Bradley Cooper movie) angle where the brain is capable of so much bullshite.


All in all, I am really gonna like this season. I don't remember when it was that they create the door between the universes (is that late this season maybe, or is it S4?) but I like when they end up working together on both sides.

I'm kinda interested to hear your theories once we read the final season. I think it was than, maybe the second to last season, I don't remember. But something is telling me that belly actually didn't die, and this is some large plot to get what he wants. Again this won't happen for a couple of seasons. But just as a reminder bell comes back and tries to create a new super universe. We will address this later.

I didn't realize it happened actually.

Fauxlivia is hotter. Like her bouncy walk.

They told us he died but once again, I didn't see any evidence that he really died. Nothing more than supposition at this point especially since he hadn't kept in contact with Nina for a long time.

Always in beast mode.

Surprised I didn't call BS on that. He diffused unknown tech with ease and then they just turned it over to him. Smells a bit.

I have a tough time with Charlie because of OZ. However, I seem to like Charlie II better for some inexplicable reason.

True. It might have started as mathematics but he was moving forward in time and backing up. He had a DVR of prescience.
