Fringe: "Marionette" - Dec. 9 - Next show is Friday, Jan. 21
- Thread starter Aragorn
- Start date
The best bits have been Olivia's reintegration into her life - the scene in her closet was good.
But ya, Peter's in the doghouse
I've seen this before where a series has a storyline that takes things to the next level and makes it awkward to go on as before.
Torv's acting is terrific tonight.
This show always manages to top itself in the gore department.
The marionette scene is just creepy.

Looked like Olivia has a slight Steven Seagal Speedup Scene(tm) there.
"Well, to be honest, I wasn't looking at her eyes...."
She has stepped it up a notch, to be sure. She used to be somewhat two-dimensional.
Coming attraction seems to confirm that.
Alt Olivia probably had her head in Peter's crotch so how was he going to notice her eyes?
Peter probably never heard our Liv going "YES! YES!!" at the top of her lungs for comparison.
Well, we know he's important in the greater scheme of things, even if we don't know why yet.
This was another average. It might have done more for me if I actually was invested in Olivia and Olivia/Peter but I'm not so that thread didn't interest me or move me in the slightest. The standalone plot--I figured out 5 minutes into the episode and as a result was a chore to sit through. I'm really tired of the stupid sci fi mumbo jumbo this show employs--at least Trek tried to make their science explanations seem more grounded than off-the-wall. Plus Anna torv's acting has never really been all that great--her final scene with Peter in the garden was cringe-worthy.
And looking back at the 8 episode arc for this 1/3 of the season I'm not sure if it amounted to a whole lot.
