My first reaction was that, wow, it would be wonderful if there was a universe where that didn't happen and we didn't lose so many people. But everyone feels grief and its reminders differently, so I can appreciate your feelings about it completely Andrea.<br /><br />It was a very daring artistic thing to do so soon after the event, for sure. Although, not too different from portraying other tragedies of long ago such as the Titanic or WW2 moments, as someone mentioned. Like Dennis said, everyone should be allowed their own feelings about it here. :-\Capcomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06841675195251354073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-788645746622659643.post-91786423889556391652009-08-08T09:00:38.423-04:002009-08-08T09:00:38.423-04:00Overall.

I am in nyc but was very fortunate not to lose anyone in the horrible tragedy on 9/11. <br /><br />I do feel that this was a loving tribute though, and not exploitative. And an alternative timeline where the towers still exist means that the tragedy did not occur, at least not in that location...<br /><br />Adam: great review as always :-)<br /><br />At the wrap party, Kirk was wearing the most amazing stylish panama hat, and from seeing pics of him on the net I have to wonder if he had input on the choice of hat here -- seems he's a hat man and he has mucho taste!<br /><br />On the weather ref, this ep was actually shot at the beginning of April, but NYC weather was very freaky (unseasonable) at the time!<br /><br />Loved Bell's smile (though I did think the initial 'in shadow' effect was a bit overdone). Pondered this a lot, thought he was smiling in pride of (one of?) his crowning achievements, Olivia. She has passed every test, and removed an immediate threat from his life. At any rate, worked for me!<br /><br />I can't wait to see what happens next...Tanyahttp://twitter.com/tanyaweimannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-788645746622659643.post-60890824602031062142009-05-15T09:31:00.000-04:002009-05-15T09:31:00.000-04:00I was just thinking about this recently... she mus...I was just thinking about this recently... she must have done more than switch realities, because she started out at the Mitsumi Hotel, somewhere near the 12th floor, and ended up near the 100th floor of the World Trade Center.Dennishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05071751415790930551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-788645746622659643.post-34330646939601149052009-05-15T08:37:00.000-04:002009-05-15T08:37:00.000-04:00So did she switch realities? or did bell have her ...So did she switch realities? or did bell have her transported in the elevator?Todd Horsthttp://www.managingmeals.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-788645746622659643.post-16077009640570597492009-05-15T05:14:00.000-04:002009-05-15T05:14:00.000-04:00I was disappointed that Olivia acted so dumb this ...I was disappointed that Olivia acted so dumb this episode. After all, last week she moved between alternate realities herself ! Also, being a 'JJ' show, why didn't one of those kids say: "A shimmering wall, like a force shield in Star Trek". Which would have been a plug, but a PERFECT description of the phenomenon. This episode also brought a question to mind. If you consider deep space, thousands of light years from any 'rational being' Are there Alternate Realities out there ? If so, WHO is making the decisions ?

Whilst I can appreciate the impact of 911 on an intellectual level, I've only experienced it emotionally at 2nd or 3rd hand. But even I thought that featuring the Twin Towers at the end was an extremely risky thing to do.<br /><br />So I can appreciate that people who lost loved ones may find it too painful to be reminded.<br /><br />However, whilst Fringe is an entertainment as such, it also allows us to reflect on some very serious things that could affect us in the real world. And the tone of the final episode of the season was very downbeat.<br /><br />So using the Twin Towers in themselves was not sensationalist or disrespectful to my mind.<br /><br />However, the makers will have to be very careful how they handle this element of the show in season 2.<br /><br />If it turns out to be just a gimmick, then I will be extremely unhappy with the writers and producers of the show.Penfolduk01noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-788645746622659643.post-26540933870893125522009-05-14T15:51:00.000-04:002009-05-14T15:51:00.000-04:00There WAS a Walterism, when Olivia got to the pla...There WAS a Walterism, when Olivia got to the place where Jones was and Peter and Walter were there: "We're trying to plug a hole in the universe!
