Fringe: "Johari Window" 1/14/10 - Grading & Discussion
- Thread starter Aragorn
- Start date
The same reason why people run upstairs in a horror movie to get away from the killer/slasher/whatever.
Not what I would've come back with after the break (well, we did have last week's bonus episode). It wasn't bad just not as enjoyable nor intriguing as Fringe usually is. It had a couple of great moments especially between Walter and Astrid but overall was left wanting a lot more. Next week's looks good but not arc related. We need an arc episode sooner rather than later especially since we only have four episodes (five, if you count the bonus one) until April 1st.

I guessed the twist early, more or less.
I guess the Edina folk never get major medical care, can't leave town.
It was okay.

Meh. About half as good as Monday's episode.
So the werewolf Walter encountered in London, do you figure it was of the David Naughton or Warren Zevon variety?
Absolutely nothing arc-based in this episode. If not for Walter at the start still dealing a bit with (and mentioning) his getting lost in Chinatown you could almost say that this episode was the 'lost' episode that aired back on Monday because it could have fit into last season.
I liked this episode a lot.
I also waited for Peter to say this wasn't his first kill.
And, i am thinking Walter is getting closer to telling Peter the truth about where he really came from.

The plot was decidedly average. But damn if I'm not growing to really, really like these characters. Also, this episode, more than most from Fringe actually had a thematic message: looking beyond exteriors to see the true person within. Nice touch.
Once again, a substandard plot is saved by great character moments and, this time, a story that actually means something.
"Above Average."

Isn't Fringe on Hulu and Fox.com?
^ AKA next week's plot. 
It's funny that with all the goofiness in this episode (and any episode) of Fringe the thing that bothered me most is that they weren't wearing seat belts when they had their crash.
