Ah, I am quite satisfied with life because Fringe is back on our television sets. Did you know that ratings went up in the best demographic and this is wonderful and exciting? Let’s help keep this wondrous show on the air by liveblogging this week’s episode. OH, FRINGE, WHAT WONDERS DO YOU HIDE.
Screw having a social life. I’ll be plopped on my couch Friday night to watch this live. YOU SHOULD DO THE SAME! I will put the review up on Saturday afternoon as well. No waiting three days like last time. So let’s get to it!
Because we are all on the exact same ground this time around, our spoiler policy for these blogs will be completely different. Anything that has aired in the past is fair game for discussion. Anything that has not publicly aired WILL BE CONSIDERED A SPOILER.
This liveblog will work in relative to when the episode airs for you. So, you may begin your livebloggy commenting down below when the episode starts. To avoid spoilers, I stick to the first page and comment away, and then go back afterwards to add any more
DO. NOT. POST. SPOILERS. This community is not the place for that. You have the rest of the fucking Internet. Go there.
GO, MY FRINGIES. GO FORTH AND BLOG.
All the sadness, I'm never able to do a liveblog like this with y'all because I have no TV (local or cable/satellite). But who cares, SO EXCITED! Crossing my fingers that we will be seeing a "there" centric episode tonight.

Yay! The preview they aired last week looked really promising for the kinds of Olivia moments I love!
I went to the Fringe website to watch the promo for tonight, and there was a hilarious video titled "A sit down with Josh Jackson," which was just 20 seconds of an empty chair with his name on it.
So excited to liveblog tonight! Assuming my jet lag lets me stay awake that long!
lol that's amazing. Does this mean that the Mighty Ducks movies never happened?! We've gotta get Peter back lest this tragedy continues!
Have a safe trip, and i hope to see you in the liveblog!
My trip actually ended late Monday night, but I still haven't readjusted my sleep schedule (it was 12 hours off), so I keep falling asleep at 7pm and waking up at 2am. It's really annoying! But I'm not working this weekend, so I have a post-Fringe date with some ambien.
I'm really looking forward to tonight's episode! Fuck a social life, it's time for Fringe!
Woot, woot, new Fringe! And I completely misread Fringies as Fringles. I must be hungry.
Can someone please confirm for me whether it's on at 8 or 9 o'clock (assuming my internet can handle live streaming right now)
9 EDT!
I'm imagining Pringles with Walter's face on them, and they are glorious.
Thanks!
I've always imagined Salt and Vinegar Pringles must be coated in some sort of addictive drug. If Walter was involved they'd definitely be.
Oh god, I don't eat potato chips very often, but if I do it's because I get a HUGE craving for salt & vinegar or crab chips. So damn addictive. And now my mouth is watering…
I'm only sad it's too late to go to the shops here. There are crab flavoured crisps? What is this witchcraft?
Yeah, sort of!
<img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ls96seuID91qcime1o1_500.jpg" width="300">
They're flavored with Old Bay, or something like Old Bay. I'm a Marylander and we have an odd love for crabs — there's even one on our driver's licenses — and Old Bay (great on french fries, too!) so I have nooooo idea if that's appealing to other people, but I love 'em.
WHAT THE FUCK ARE THESE
DELICIOUS. STOP JUDGING.
those look SOOOOO GOOOOOOOOD
What about shrimp chips? So good!
God, I haven't tried those in years. They're different, but good! I wonder if my regular grocery store has them…
ONLY A FEW MORE HOURS.
Only ten more minutes 😛
Sticking this here to remind me to watch for the glyphs!

Last Five Minutes of Hell's Kitchen's Thoughts:
1) Gordon Ramsay has no business calling anyone ugly
2) "Stay the course" gives me Bush flashbacks and makes my eye twitch.
Now time for Fringe!
COME BACK PETER!
Argh tube in his head
omg what is he doing to this random man 🙁
Taking emotions what with the asking how he felt?
Whyyyy is there blue fluid going into his brain? I'm calling him Mr. Freeze.
holy shit you were right!
lol baked goods. MENTION THE VAGENDA, WALTER.
But no Peter equals no vagenda! Lo, this is surely a wretched universe to be deprived of such as thing.
God, you're right! This is terrible! We need Peter back!
AHAHHA kennedy!
'Kennedy, help me' Ahahahahaha
WE GOT OUR NAME! He's Kennedy!
Aww, Astrid. Thank you for doing the shipping work for me.
I love how different the characters and two universes are that I'm all over Fauxlivia/Lincoln but completely indifferent to Olivia/Kennedy!Lincoln.
I like Fauxlivia/Lincoln way better, but I ship Kennedy and Lincoln with EVERYONE, no matter their personalities.
Lincoln/Kennedy is extremely shippable and I just realised what I wrote. I meant both of them, not both of them together *facepalm*
Rule 34.
Agreed!
I'm all about Olivia/Lincoln. Until Peter returns, of course.
her type doesn't exist :c
'Do you ever think that maybe your type just doesn't exist' – 🙁
uuuuugh no drills in my head please
i just had a shipping REVELATION. you want more astrid? Astrid/Lincoln!!! i think it could totally work.
Team-up! L?
I've never noticed the height difference between Olivia and Boyles until right now
I am late, but yay! Fringe! I loved the use of Agnus Dei.
It was brilliant, perfect for Walter's drama
220 IQ???!!!
You wouldn't want to mix them up.
Colonel Broyles is alive 😀
Yay! Things are different!
😀 😀 😀
that's super creepy, Fauxlivia
Way to go Fauxlivia.
Lincoln! I hope they both meet!
I like that the sedative's color is reminiscent of the titles
also reminiscent of the color coding – the lights that flash over olivia and broyles in the security/entryway to the bridge room (whatever its called) – RED and GREEN.
i am an idiot. red and BLUE universes. GAH. i'm just gonna go jump into a level 5 event or something. i hope the rest of the episode goes well!
OMG LINCOLN. And Frank's still there!
And Frank married the bug lady!
Hehe, you mean Scarlie did?
Oops, yes, I meant Scarlie!
Booo Frank.
Lee and Olivia tension! I love everything about this!
His awkward, "I like the red too!" was adorable.
Fauxlivia and Lincoln sitting in a tree …
Other Lincoln's hair is much better this season!!
creeeeeeeeepy
Well that mother and daughter are doomed.
I don't know if anyone else got a Domino's commercial, but that artisan pizza didn't look half bad!
Oh right, I think we have L- I, now. liars? links?
Dying laughing at the Glee ad, that was super dramatic.
I know right? lololol
Oh, Walter. OMG the ad
<img src="http://i52.tinypic.com/2zxp1cl.jpg">
lol this reminds me of that old Sony (?) cm in the 90s
God I love the Requiem. I still sing along with the alto line whenever I hear it after singing it in college.
I do that with other songs as well (second soprano) and get really annoyed when it's not the arrangement I learned.
Yes! The arrangement makes such a difference.
Poor Walter. 🙁
Love you forever Astrid
Just like you…
I wonder if he'll make the connection
Fauxlivia is so pretty right now.
I want a jar of gelt…
Feeling a bit like I'm watching Criminal Minds. Quick, someone call the BAU!
Get Reid on the case.
YES PLEASE
That would be an amazing crossover
I want to read all the fic now.
Oh, do not ever let your kid use a gas station bathroom. Even if you're there with them. That's gross.
Please don't use insane on this site.
Sorry! I didn't even think. /o I'll delete.
This guy is going to freak out when he gets it right? 🙁
please don't be a victim wall
Maybe not a good idea to leave photos lying around…
He steals their happy memories?
It must be! The other guy dried up or what have you when he said he was happy.
Oops.
Oh yeah, go in there Olivia, that'll make things MUCH BETTER.
omg Fauxlivia's face I love her
I love her too! She's so irreverent.
Limits, maybe?
Anyone see the glyph?
if it weren't for the amber (and his intelligence) they MIGHT have been able to pull off convincing him they were twins. but then i suppose they'd have to spin a whole other set of lies.
Did anyone catch the Fringe-ish reference on Community yesterday? First Doctor Who and then Fringe. I love that show.
What way does yer man in the phone ad say mobile?
Scarlie married bug lady!!!!! I'm loving the universe changes.
That's the greatest! 😀
So cute!
I need a list of all the universe changes! I can't remember everything from last season 🙁
I'm sure the fandom will provide one at some point.
I miss Scarlie and his spider loving lady
Whenever Walter was listening to Mozart, he looked so at peace. Heartbreaking that Astrid woke him up. :((
Wow, Olivia's opening up.
oh god Olivia's face 🙁
Seriously. 🙁
Everyone on this show is just so tragic.
So he's freezing the happy memories to hold onto them?
They're totally going to meet before the end of the episode.
agreed, there's still 25-ish min left!
Oh crap he's on the loose.
That was fast, Fauxlivia
Other side Fringe division! Alt!Astrid!
AlternaBroyles!
I just realized that both Broyles are alive!
Yeah, I didn't even make that connection. We know Fauxlivia took over Olivia's life for a while, so how did they get her back without killing Broyles?????
That was a B there
Are you ahead of me? I'm jealous if you're somehow getting fewer commercials!
Yeah somehow the Canadian stream has fewer commercials than the American one so by the second half it's ahead. I try to not spoil, obviously.
Lucky Canadians…
I don't want to type while Astrid is talking and miss whatever she's saying.
Astrid is better than us all!
SKJA;SDJF;AKLJ NONONONONO
Yup. Just what we need, two geniuses together
is he going to steal his other self's memories??? o_O
That would be utterly tragic.
Well that was quick.
B Limbo?
what is this mac and cheese patty melt nonsense??? why??????????
L I M B….
Limbus?
Could be limbic, but I was thinking limbo
Ah limbic would make sense. But I think there is time for more than just one letter.
That Toyota ad was kind of creepy.
LIMBO's my guess, since Peter is in a pseudo-existance limbo?
YESSSSSSSSSS Olivias in the car together!
Don't freak out the man with the drill for human skulls!
Holy shit.
This double universe thing makes for such cool character possibilities.
poor olivia is totally out of place and out of her element in the alt-fringe division office. she looks so small, literally and metaphorically. too bad she is also DOMINATING the alt-fringe team in investigative skillz. BOO YAAAAA.
This is not going to end well.
Oh shit.
Olivia killed her stepdad! asdfghjmnbvcmdsngba
Maybe that's why she doesn't blink anymore!
Oo, good point!
lol Olivia <3
lol First time Fauxlivia has ever been shocked like that
PS Olivia, I love you
So he is stealing his other self's memories. Good job knut_knut!
I win ALL the things!!
I raise my salt and vinegar chip to you!
Curse you there was only popcorn or cheese and onion crisps in my house!
Better stock up for next week!
I am virtually giving you some of my chocolate cake!
WHAT
'Bring home the best action movie ever' – I really don't think so Transformers.
couldn't they just have said best action movie of the summer? It's not true either, but EVER is a bit extreme
That American Horror Story looks like it could be interesting.
A halved apple!
