Fringe Review: Black Blotter

“Why are those mice shooting at us?”

The Theme of the Season is a question: how far will you go to save the world? And the answer has been: not too far. Last week, Peter chose to remain a member of humankind, sacrificing his time-reading abilities to stay a son, father, and husband. This week, a trip through Walter’s brain revealed that he, too, wants to maintain the best part of himself. He’s afraid that he has gone too far, now as then.

Fringe 5.09 Review - Black Blotter

Tinkerbell Tripping

Hurdy, Gurdy, Pusher Man Goes A Wandering

~~~

Walter to Carla Warren  - "I wanted to cry for you. But I'm different now."

~~~

Pusher Man Lyrics -

Pete Shelley

I went to my pad

And I crashed on my bed

I kept taking that snuff

Until it blew my head

It was really gunpowder

I a flash in the pan

I a charcoaled cinder

God damn the pusher man

~~~

As a nod to previous seasons where the nineteenth episode were always something outside the lines, even for Fringe, Episode 9 was given that honor in this shortened final season.  Less ambitious this time, no doubt due to a decreased budget, Walter’s discovery of an excellent batch of LSD - Black Blotter -  still made for a compelling, inner mind episode.

Fringe Noble Intentions: "The Human Kind"

John Noble discusses the Fringe season 5 episode "The Human Kind" in the latest episode of Noble Intentions.

Fringe Observiews 5.08 The Human Kind

Welcome to the Observiews for Season 5 of Fringe. I call them Observiews because they are more visual observations than deep thinking reviews, if that makes sense.
Screen caps from this episode are taken from fringefiles.com. Dialog is from fringepedia.net.

All observations are mine and therefore could be totally off the wall and/or wrong. I have not read or looked at any recaps or reviews. I could also have missed a few things, oh well…

DAVID JONES: "Your love for this man must be something quite profound."

It is. And just how profound? We will find out!
