Fringe: "Immortality" - 2/11 on FOX - Grading & Discussion

[Aragorn]

Spoiler: 3x13: "Immortality"

Over There, a terrorist arms himself with a flesh eating insect, while alternate Olivia reunites with her boyfriend. Meanwhile, while determined to protect his universe, Walternate discovers there are some lines he won't cross.

This doesn't sound like a very good episode.

Be interesting to be in the alt universe since has been a few eps since have been back there.

I had found all the alternate episodes this season to not be that great--it usually consisted of a throwaway fringe science plot of the week and I have never cared for the alt Fringe team--poor acting and annoying. Probably the only thing interesting will be what little crumbs we get pertaining to the mythology--although I can't say that last week's revelation surrounding how critical the Olivia/Peter/Fauxlivia love triangle is to it hasn't dampened my excitement for even the mythology. But we'll see.

The ending of this episode is supposed to be a "WHAT THE FUCK?!?!?!11?!" moment, so I see the ratings being a 1.2 and thus being canceled next week. :lol

I'm really looking forward to this episode...I enjoyed almost all the alt. episodes so far and really like the new team member they have over there....Hopefully he'll show up on the Prime earth side soon.

I wonder if Lincoln Lee would've been John Scott if 1) Mark Valley didn't have Human Target, and 2) Valley and Anna Torv didn't get divorced.

Although this ep doesn't sound all that great (I hate bug episodes), I should be around for commentary, depending on how I feel. I've got a sinus headache and it's been a very long day.

Still, I'm curious about the above-advertised WTF moment, so I'll try to hang in there.

 

[Aragorn]

The WTF moment is Peter from the third universe... but because he originated from different sperm and had a different conception date, he'll be played by James Van Der Beek.

I didn't know they were married-now that is one pairing I just don't see. Mark Valley is a really good looking guy and Anna Torv is just so plain.

For what it's worth, I find her a bit on the ordinary side as well.

^Is there some unspoken rule that both halves of a couple have to be equally good-looking?

Not at all. I just find Anna to be just a bit on the bland side.

 

[Procutus]

That was a cool opening shot of the other universe.

 

[Quo Vadimus]

Poor Charlie, I see a bunch of bug jokes in his near future.

 

[Procutus]

So Scarlie's not the new Division head?

 

[Quo Vadimus]

Hello, who's the cutie?

 

[Mr. Adventure]

"NERD ALERT!"


Go for it, Charlie!

 

[Procutus]

Poor Charlie, I see a bunch of bug jokes in his near future.

Jog my memory; how did Scarlie get spiders in his bloodstream? That whole notion just creeps me out something serious.

 

[Procutus]

Hello, who's the cutie?

Cute chick with a bug-fetish.
