Oh, Fringe started off slowly and has done nothing but get better and better all through the season.
Hey, evil dead, you're in my seat.

Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon
A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
So, those nice people at Fox decided not to cancel a show? It's like a gift from the gods. (*mutter mutter grumble grumble evil nasty genius-show-cancelling Joss-screwing idiots*)
word.

Our wings are not tired.
John Noble was just heartbreaking as Walter breaking down in the restaurant.
Broke me. Fringe is Walter for me. The joy he expressed over his son making him a gift had me all misty eyed too.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Oh yeah. He's a great study in remorse -- he's doen some horrible things in the past, and he wants so very much to make up for them, but his sanity is tenuous at best, his memory is spotty, and he's so very lost. What a magnificent character. The fact that he can be all of this and still be exuberent with joy most of the time, and have the dichotomy be believable, is a testament to Noble's mad acting skills. (Quite literally, I suppose.)

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
P-C, I think we need a more complete description....
Heh, but that's all there was! The door opens and BANG. End of episode.

Yeah, that scene in the restaurant made me realize what a great character he really is.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman
She reaches her floor, gets out of the elevator and 4-5 masked men with guns are there to greet her.
did they shoot her, or just menace her with the guns?

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
There was a "thwippp" kind of noise, so something was shot at her -- I'm guessing a dart of some kind?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
right, there was a silencer kind of noise and a thump, so I think we are supposed to think she was shot with something. The screen was black for all of it.

Just watched on Hulu. I think that the thwipp was the silencer, not a dart. Although it could have been.
Any one else think that Harris may have been talking to Bell when he was immolated? He said "let me talk to him" (Hate that! My old boss's wife would call and say "is he there?")

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
My love of Fringe is all about Walter. He's so fun to watch, even when he is wistfully remembering a horrible experiment he did. I also love his random food cravings.
