Fringe Robbery Upside Down from "Os"

Here is the robbery scene from the Fringe episode "Os". I have flipped the video upsides down so you can see what was actually going on.

Fringe Review: Os

“It’s about trust. So it’s a great game, if two people are playing.”

For the past five episodes or so, I’ve had the same thought after each airing: How many viewers will call this the last straw, the final push, the reason to rant and rave and, ultimately, walk away? Fringe continues to push us past our comfort zone, not just in terms of scientific possibilities but also in the intersection between the personal and the scientific, with interesting results.

Three New Sneak Peek Vids from Tonight's Episode 'Os'

Three new Sneak Peek vids from SpoilerTV. Enjoy!

Fringe is #2 in This Week's 'Matt's Picks'

Note:If you haven't seen this week's TV Guide Magazine, Fringe is #2 in 'Matt's Picks' in the front of the issue. 'Big Bang Theory' is #1, and Matt Roush makes a Fringe reference by saying he wishes BBT had an alternate universe so we'd have double the BBT to watch. Nice job, Matt!-fringeobsessed


Fringe: Episodes & News
Matt's Weekend Picks: March 11-13
Mar 10, 2011 07:00 AM ETby Matt Roush

Fringe (Friday, 9/8c, Fox)
Hard to imagine the show topping its most recent episode — the haunting "Subject 13" flashback into Olivia and Peter's childhood — but any story that puts Walter Bishop center stage is worth watching, and this week the mournful mad scientist is busy trying to delay the damage he's done to the wall between universes. Good luck with that. Meanwhile, the Fringe Team is on the case of thieves who defy gravity. Now let's see Fringe defy the gravity of those Friday night ratings.

Fringe Discuss: Who's More Damaged, Peter Or Olivia?

We've added a new weekly feature to FringeTelevision, "Fringe Discuss", inspired by your questions and comments. To christen this, we'll start this week with the following discussion question:

Who do you think is the more 'damaged'? Peter or Olivia? 

There is a good case to be made for both.

Supporting points showing Peter is damaged:

• Peter was duped from age 8 by our Walter(not his real father) 
• Peter's alt-mom Elizabeth lied to him, saying she really was his mother 
• Peter grew up without a father after age 13 when Walter was placed in St. Claire's 
• Peter voluntarily chose a nomadic and criminal lifestyle up to the day Olivia blackmailed him to return to Boston 
• Peter was duped by our Olivia(she learned of his real identity but kept it from him for weeks) 
• Peter thought he was going home to his real family when in actually it was all Walternate's machine agenda 
• Peter was duped by FauxLivia(Ha! The same way he was duped for 25 years by Walter) 
• Peter was experimented on as a child by Walter(and as an adult also if you count things like Walter hypnotizing him and making him cut his sleeves off) 

Supporting points showing our Olivia is damaged:

• Olivia's step-dad physically and verbally abused her as a child 
• Olivia killed her last lover because he was a double-agent, who tried to kill her 
• Olivia killed her 'partner'(technically a shapeshifter who had assumed her partner's identity) 
• Olivia's mother died when she was 14 
• Olivia got trapped in another universe trying to save Peter 
• Olivia was tortured by Walternate 
• FauxLivia stole her identity for 8 weeks 
• Peter cheated on her with FauxLivia 
• Olivia was experimented on as a child by William Bell and Walter 

So how do you weigh in on this? Who's the more damaged, or are they equally damaged?

Who's more damaged - Peter or Olivia?

John Noble and Jasika Nicole Wrap-up From Emerald City Comic Con

Someone named 'vengeancebuiltmehastily' put a nice recap on tumblr regarding John Noble and Jasika Nicole's comments this past weekend at the Emerald City Comic Cion in Seattle, Washington. (You can see their 1 spoiler comment in the 'spoilers' section.)

► tagged fringe jasika nicole john noble Fringe panel write-up (if I remember anything else I’ll post it later)
•First and foremost, both John Noble and Jasika Nicole were warm, genuine, friendly, and totally awesome to listen to. They really were incredible.

•John and Jasika both agreed that “vagenda” is one of their favorite Walter quotes but said they couldn’t pick only one because they loved them all.

•One time when they were filming Jasika had to work with live leeches in jars. They kept falling out so she’d reach down and pick them up off the floor. Anna kept telling her she’d stepped on them, even though she hadn’t, to freak her out. Jasika referred to her as a “butthole” because of this.

•John loved working with Leonard Nimoy and called him a very professional man. Jasika, on the other hand, didn’t have any scenes with Nimoy, so her only memory of him is walking by his trailer and awkwardly saying, “Hi…”

•John also thought Chris Lloyd was great to work with and said he did an awesome job on his episode.

•John raved about the performances of Little Peter and Little Olivia in Subject 13, saying he “never did this kind of thing” but that he had actually gone out of his way to get their addresses and written them letters telling them how amazing he thought they were. (Cue the “awww”ing.)

•When asked if they had an on-set nickname for Alt!Astrid, like Fauxlivia and Walternate, Jasika replied, “Kickasstrid.”

•When asked if she preferred working with John Noble or Antonio Banderas, Jasika laughed and said, “No question at all. John Noble.” John looked momentarily stricken, laughingly saying, “I didn’t know who you were going to pick there!”

•John and Jasika both love filming scenes in the lab along with Josh Jackson. They both said they have a ton of fun. John said Jasika and John were always joking around, but Jasika retaliated that he was projecting.

•Apparently, Lance Reddick can’t do scenes with John because he always cracks up. John, of course, tries even harder to make him laugh because of this.

•When asked how much influence he has on Walter’s character, John says he occasionally writes the execs in LA when he feels like they put something in the script that would be out of character for Walter. He added that the beginning of season three he said, “I think Walternate should have a mistress, and so then Walternate got a mistress! And it was Joan Chen. (big smile)”

•Jasika, when asked this question about Astrid, said she didn’t write to the execs ever—except for once, during Brown Betty, when Astrid wasn’t going to get a song. She said she wanted to sing because she had a musical theater background so she wrote them about it. They put a song in for her

•John likes playing Walter more than Walternate because he’s played lots of strong, silent, stoic characters in his career and Walter (particularly in his humorous moments) is more challenging.

Fringe Observers vs. The Adjustment Bureau

If you've seen the trailer for the new movie The Adjustment Bureau, you can't help but notice their striking resemblance to the Observers in Fringe.

As Wired Magazine points out:

Members of both groups wear hats and suits. Both carry briefcases or books. Both have existed for centuries on the periphery of human consciousness. Both take orders from unknown superiors and periodically create unintended consequences when they feel compelled to intervene in the lives of the subjects under their watch.

But unlike the spooky Fringe operatives, the Adjustment Bureau’s dispassionate caseworkers (played by John Slattery, Anthony Mackie and Terence Stamp) come across more like post office employees than celestial overseers.

“They set us on the course that we are supposed to be set onto so we will follow the grand scheme,” said director Nolfi in a statement about his PG-13 movie, which was inspired by sci-fi writer Dick’s 1954 short story “Adjustment Team.” “They might as well work in the IRS; they’re just doing their jobs.”

On the other hand, Fringe's Observers are not supposed to get involved at all, but as we have seen, that is not always the case.

There is one person in the movie you may recognize from Fringe, Michael Kelly who plays Matt Damon's assistant Charlie Traynor. He played "The Rogue" aka John Mosley in the Fringe episode "The Arrival".
(Thanks to Bluesboy for pointing this out!)

The Adjustment Bureau is inspired by the short story "Adjustment Team", written by Philip K. Dick, who also inspired other classic sci-fi movies such as Blade Runner, Minority Report, and Total Recall.

Fringe’s Observers are supposedly modeled on Marvel Comics’ Uatu the Watcher, a bald alien assigned to observe other species.

More Easter Eggs for Fringe Episode "Subject 13"

Here are a couple of more Easter Eggs from the Fringe episode "Subject 13".

The first is the video above, comparing the puzzle Walter frustrates young Olivia with, to the puzzle seen in the Alias episode "The Indicator". As you can see the puzzles are very similar, due in no small part to the fact that Fringe executive producer Jeff Pinkner also wrote that episode of Alias.

The second is a comparison of the Olivia "explosion" in "Subject 13" to another fire "incident" that we saw in the Fringe episode "Jacksonville":

It's interesting to note that the fire does not come any where near young Nick. Either she unconsciously protected her Jacksonville experiment buddy, or he was immune to her powers because he was also a Cortexiphan kid.

The footage we see in "Jacksonville" is from a much younger Olivia than the one we see in "Subject 13"

UPDATE: A couple of more interesting facts to ponder:

"Subject 13" was the first episode not to star Anna Torv. In fact, the only regular cast member in the episode was John Noble - no Anna Torv or Joshua Jackson (although we did see young Olivia and Peter). Plus no Jasika Nicole, Lance Reddick, Blair Brown, or even Gene.

According to the Fringepedia "death count" page, "Subject 13" was the first episode where no one died.
