For a second, I thought that we would find out that William Bell was alternate!Walter.
Anya: It's lovely! I wish it was mine! Oh like you weren't all thinking the same thing. Giles: I'm fairly certain I wasn't.

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.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
But Peter was stolen from Alternate!Walter. So if Alternate!Walter is still alive, boy is he pissed at our Walter.
Only... Note that the tabloid headline is "Obamas move into White House". So the whole show has taken place in a Universe in which Obama is NOT President? The show's viewpoint reality is an alternate universe to whom WE are the weird other world? I'm probably reading too much into one headline.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
It was "Obamas Move Into New White House", implying something happened to the old one. Something to do with the fires and destruction Olivia was seeing in her deja vus, perhaps.
And they ended in the Twin Towers.
So Bell is not hanging out in our universe.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Oh man! I didn't even think of that. Whoa.
Note that the tabloid headline is "Obamas move into White House".
Actually, the headline read, "Obamas move into new White House." Did the old White House blow up or something? Also, those were the Twin Towers, right? Signifying that that is the alternate reality? Oh, visual shorthand borne out of tragedy.

Ah. OK. Totally misread that one. Definitely not our reality.

My question is, there have to be others, right? They mentioned a multiverse before; this can't be the only alternate reality. The existence of one alternate reality implies the existence of infinite alternate realities.

Do we know if Fringe has been renewed? Because if not, that's one sucky Series Finale, for sure.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Okay, it is DEFINITELY time to start catching up with Fringe on iTunes/Hulu.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
yes. you need to. there was a turning point in November when the show grabbed me and didn't let go and tonight's ep was pretty awesome.
I swear Wolfram & Hart's white room was in this episode too!
