Watercooler:Who Will Be Fringe's Final Casualty?

Watercooler: Who Will Be Fringe's Finale Casualty?

Lance Reddick Tick, tock. Tick, tock...

Now that Walternate's doomsday machine was activated last Friday night, the countdown is on and in two weeks, we'll be seeing whether our universe or the alt-world makes it out of Fringe's third season alive. Then again, who knows? Walter and company are pretty crafty, so maybe both will be OK. Or maybe the worlds will merge. One thing we do know for sure is that we should expect at least one fatality. 'Cause that's how finales roll, you know?

In a recent interview with TV Guide Magazine, producers Jeff Pinkner and Joel Wyman dropped an ominous tease that fans can expect "a character they love" to perish before the end of the season. And after the events of past episodes, especially Friday's kick-ass hour, the list of possible DOAs seems to be taking an unsettling shape. Fauxlivia is in federal custody for traitorously trying to cross over to our world; Peter is in a coma following his ill-fated attempt to enter the big-bang machine; and Astrid remains the only cast regular without some sort of a link to Nina Sharp. That can't be good. And let's not forget Sam Weiss, who might have to pay for being so shady; Lincoln Lee, whose love for Fauxlivia could compromise his judgment; and Scarlie, although killing off Kirk Acevedo twice would just be rude.

So, start placing your bets in the comments below and let us know who you think will bite it by the May 6th season finale. And if you say Gene, we will report you to PETA.

Fringe Review: 6:02 AM EST

“I think this is what I’m supposed to do.”

Television shows are made up of many things. Dialogue and actors. Cinematography and score. Overarching plots, character development, and important moments. Great images and great lines. There is also an element of expectation—as viewers, we expect some moments to be presaged by rising music, for instance. Years of suckling on the boob tube makes even the most casual viewer a master of prediction and anticipation.

Fringe Wallpaper: Olivia's Tattoo

The Fox Fringe website has a new wallpaper featuring Olivia and her new tattoo (Fauxlivia's old tattoo, which her boyfriend Frank also had).

Any guesses as to what the tattoo means? Is it something between Faux and her beau, or could it be some sort of mark that they use in the Red-verse to signify something?

UPDATE: According to a tweet by Joel "J.H." Wyman, the tattoo has no "hidden meaning".

Fringe GetGlue Contest, Week 2

Week two of the GetGlue Fringe Prop giveaway has begun. This week's prize is four Massive Dynamic stock certificates.

I talked to GetGlue to clarify how the rules work, and it's pretty simple (although not very intuitive). To earn the most entries for the drawing, you need to "check-in" at GetGlue.com during the live broadcast of Fringe AND and enter the code-word-of-the-week into the comment section when you check in.

For example, the code word for last week was "Bell", which could be found on the Fringe facebook page, in the promo photos for "Lysergic Acid Diethylamide". In fact they even gave a hint in the photo's description: "**FIND THE FRINGE FRIDAYS PROP GIVEAWAY CODE IN THIS PHOTO**"

If you check in with the code during the episode, you get 5 entries. If you check in any other time, or without the code, then you get less entries. See the official rules for full details.

BTW, If you are having trouble finding this week's code, I explained where you can find it here.
