Fringe (not the kind on Clay's ottoman!)

From producers:

As if Peter Bishop didn’t already feel the weight of the world -– er, two worlds -– on his shoulders, the closing moments of this week’s Fringe promise to give the lad even more to think about.



Yep, she’s pregnant. AltLivia/Fauxlivia/Bolivia, that is. And yes, it’s Peter swimmers that got the job done (Sorry, Frank), making Walternate quite the anxious granddad.

How will this revelation shake things up in each reality?

“The two universes are in disharmony, they’re in a fractured balance, so anything that happens on one side, certainly for the duration of this season and moving forward, will by design affect the other,” Fringe executive producer Jeff Pinkner tells TVLine.

For starters, Pinkner says, “There will be consequences for Bolivia and certainly Walternate, escalating the storytelling on that side.” After all, as AltBrandon presented the news to Walternate: “I think I might have another way to bring Peter back from the other universe.”

Indeed, the big question is what Peter will do with this information once it makes its way to him, and how if at all it might influence his massive decision — and it sounds like that bombshell won’t take long at all to drop.

“The reality of what’s happening over there will get to our side relatively soon,” previews Pinkner, “and it will absolutely affect what’s going on over here,” where Peter has been laboring to reconcile his feelings for Olivia vs. Fauxlivia as well as come to terms with his destiny as a savior of one — but which? — world.

If this paternity shocker at first blush appears a smidge soapy for a series as risk-taking as Fringe, rest assured that this ain’t no shopworn General Hospital storyline coming your way.

“We get to tell stories that maybe you understand as a viewer, and you’ve seen before” – but always with a twist, exec producer J.H. Wyman points out. “This is not the first time you’ve heard about somebody having an affair, which is always interesting drama. But it becomes a totally different thing when the person your loved one has fooled around with is another version of yourself!”

“In keeping with that,” Wyman continues, “this reveal will not unfold in a way that is traditional. So people should prepare for that, because it should be very interesting.”

We're going to have one heck of a ride this season, and leaving us a cliffhanger at the end.

Interesting news here............

I completely missed that one!!! How did I miss that .

Horselaydee used to say "senior moment"

Probably was a senior moment, but sometimes if you don't see a new posting before you disconnect, I miss it when I come back. Anyway, I wonder how they'll play out this story.

Yes, that happens. I know I have missed some posts - like about your DIL the other day.

I just wish the best for Fringe. It's ratings are dropping big time each week. Competing with Supernatural (another very popular much loved show with a sci-fi vibe) on Friday nights probably was not the best move. I tape SN and watch Fringe in real time. That's all I can do for them.

I thought the show was awesome last night!! Loved the story!! Loved Peter and Olivia finally getting together!

Me too...............do you think Olivia will also be pregnant soon too? The same things happen in both worlds you know................

Oh that would be something!! I would love that!!

Sky - did you watch last night? I thought it was a really good one! Cool ending too! Next week looks great!

I missed the very start, thinking it was on an hour later then I remembered. Yes! Great show! All the shows are great, sometimes 'off the wall' but always great!

Did you get to see it last night? It was really good! LOVE Lincoln Lee! I hope there is some way he and Charlie can come to our side!

Tricky Walternate! Good thing though since it saved AltLiv and baby! What do you think the blood sample was for?

I can't believe it is going on another 3 week break and only 4 episodes left after it returns!!

Great episode! I just watched it. So Walter set that whole thing up? I'm not so sure because that nurse was outside watching. I have no idea what that blood sample was for. Another hiatus????

Yes. Walternate set it up so that AltLiv would not terminate the pregnancy because of the threat of death to her and the baby due to her condition. This way with it sped up both were OK. I am sure he plans to get his hands on the baby and "get rid of" AltLiv. Just cannot figure out the blood sample part. Unless it is to check and see if the baby has the same abilities as Peter.

Yes - another break!! And then only 4 new episodes! Seems crazy the season is almost over already.

The good news is the show has been picked up for a 4th season!

Man - tonight's episode is so weird!

I can't wait ..........................

Hope you like cartoons!

That kind of weird, huh?

That was a bit weird, but interesting.

It was interesting! Other than Walter though I don't think the animations looked much like the actors.

I thought the little girl who played child Olivia was absolutely darling!!

Good show tonight!!

Very very good!! So funny with Naked Walter Tuesday!!! Love that Peter and Olivia are getting soooo close!! Very interesting about one of the sides maybe being destroyed. I have a feeling we are in for a real humdinger of a season finale cliffhanger!!
