Seth Gabel talks about Lincoln & Olivia, a bromance with Peter, and alt-couplings in 'Fringe'

This is the video companion to the interview The Examiner's LA TV Insider, Danielle Turchaino had with Seth Gable recently.

Below is part of Danielle's interview:


VIDEO: 'Fringe's' Seth Gabel talks Olivia interest, Peter bromance & alt-Lincoln
Danielle Turchiano, LA TV Insider Examiner
October 6, 2011

For some Fringe fans, Lincoln Lee (Seth Gabel) may be seen as a third wheel-- or an otherwise threat to Olivia (Anna Torv) and Peter (Joshua Jackson)'s relationship. But we don't believe you should feel that way. For one thing, as John Noble pointed out, Walter has let Lincoln into his lab-- so if Walter can extend him some trust, we probably should, too. But more importantly, it's not Lincoln's fault that he and Olivia have been pushed together in this new version of the universe without Peter-- nor is it his fault that Olivia has no memory of Peter. And thankfully, once Peter does return (which is sooner, rather than later!), he and Lincoln end up working together, too, in many ways.

"Lincoln and Peter seem to get along. They have-- ah, I hate the word bromance, but they get along well. Whatever the definition of bromance is without using that word, though now I just used it I don't think there's a competitive nature there. I'm hoping because there are alts of each person but only one Peter, that ultimately Lincoln and Peter can be happy in some way," Gabel shared when LA TV Insider Examiner visited the Vancouver set* of Fringe earlier this week.

Fringe Noble Intentions: One Night In October

John Noble discusses how Walter interprets the strange Peter voices he hears, in this latest episode of Noble Intentions, for the Fringe episode "One Night In October".

Jasika Nicole Interview With Examiner.com

Jasika Nicole talks alt-Astrid, Fringe Division girl power & post-Peter's return
by Danielle Turchiano, LA TV Insider Examiner

So much has changed for the character of FOX' Fringe now that Peter (Joshua Jackson) tore holes in the fabric of the universes and has been erased from their lives and memories. But perhaps one of the most significant shifts has been for Astrid (Jasika Nicole). Those like Walter (John Noble) and Olivia (Anna Torv) are still working in amplified but similar manners to how they always were. Astrid, on the other hand, seems to be much more of a lone wolf this time around. Whereas she was once Walter's go-to girl, he now has someone else for that, leaving her to be more independent, self-assured, and in many ways, strong. LA TV Insider Examiner had a chance to sit down with Nicole on the Vancouver set of Fringe earlier today to discuss the new dynamic among her division and how it will be affected once again when Peter does return.

Fringe Discuss: What Is Different In The New Timeline?

It's Wednesday, and time for another round of Fringe Discuss, where we throw out a question to you and you post your opinions.

Recently in an interview with Maris Roffman of GiveMeMyRemote.com, executive producer Jeff Pinkner, said the following regarding the lack of Peter Bishop's influence on other characters in the series:

[Peter's] influence on the characters on the other side only dates back to the end of season 2. So things on that side are far less touched by Peter’s presence. Having said that, alt-Broyles was dead because he helped Olivia escape. So we can assume that because he’s alive, that didn’t happen. Elsewhere, without trying to set up a game, there are obvious clues and opportunities for the audience to figure out what’s different and what’s the same because of Peter’s presence. And we’re not trying to be elusive. With the things that are important, we will make very plain. And with the others that are less important, we will allow to color the show.

Today's Fringe Discuss question: What other changes, due to a lack of Peter Bishop, do you think the executive producers "will make very plain" in the upcoming episodes?

Please post your comments below, and remember that spoilers do NOT belong here! Fringe spoilers are very welcome at the "Fringe Spoilers" page you can access by clicking on "Fringe Spoilers" at the top of this page.

Also, please be courteous of your fellow posters, as there are no right or wrong answers to this week's question, just healthy speculations.

'The No Doctor Cop Lawyer Show':How 'Fringe' evolved into a great TV show

'The No Doctor Cop Lawyer Show': How 'Fringe' evolved into a great TV show
by Darren Franich

Even the most die-hard TV fans have their blind spots. Until a couple weeks ago, mine was Fringe. I had watched the series premiere way back in 2008, thought it felt like warmed-over X-Files with a dash of The Nutty Professor, and immediately checked out. While I was off falling victim to the short-lived charms of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles and Kings, Fringe was slowly but surely transforming into an exciting, wholly unique TV show. (EW’s TV critic Ken Tucker named it the second-best series of 2010.) In preparation for the new season of Fringe, I marathoned through the show’s first three seasons — a Fringe binge. I’m a better person now, and I’m also working on a new romance self-help book, Olivia or Fauxlivia?: How To Make Sure Your Lover Hasn’t Been Replaced By an Alternate Universe Duplicate.

Watercooler:In Praise Of "Fringe's" NewLivia

Today's News: Our Take

Watercooler: In Praise of Fringe's NewLivia
Oct 3, 2011 11:03 AM ET
by Damian Holbrook

Let us not feel anger at those who didn't watch last Friday's Fringe. For while yes, they helped contribute to one of the show's lowest Nielsens ever, they too deprived themselves of a showcase for Anna Torv's latest iteration of her Agent Olivia Dunham. Call her NewLivia. And pity the fools who missed this standout episode.

Having already given us Original Recipe Olivia, the alt-world's Bolivia (or Fauxlivia), Bolivia-As-Olivia and the Spock-possessed BelLivia, Torv is now up to her awesome in the fifth version of this complex Fringe Division dame: An Olivia who never knew Peter Bishop. An Olivia who offed her abusive stepfather. An Olivia with swagger. An Olivia we LOVE.

In the season's second episode, fans got a buffet of bad-assery as NewLivia and Bolivia were forced to play nice together in order to catch a serial killer from Over There. Playing opposite herself in several scenes, Torv got to turn the lights up on the differences between these two women and develop sides to the Bishop-less version that — gasp! — made us possibly like her even more than the one we have spent the last three seasons with. She's looser, funnier, more accessible and completely entertaining. So here's hoping that she is also here to stay... especially once Peter returns and has to pick between the two Dunhams who loved him.

Do you adore Torv's newest Olivia persona?
