Sorry to DP, but Ausiello watched the first 2 eps of Fringe today and this is what he said about them on his twitter:

Quote:

MichaelAusiello Can't begin to tell you how unbelievably thrilling first two FRINGEs are. Strongest eps to date IMHO. Anna Torv making serious case for Emmy

Strongest eps to date? EEEEE I cannot wait to see! And so awesome that he think Anna's acting is amazing/emmy worthy! 4 more days!

Fringe - Promo/Sneak Peek/Scenemaker "Olivia" (3x01) - SPOILERS

(sorry, still don't know how to embed the YT videos though I did try

)

killed the lights · 09-20-2010, 06:23 AM

Thanks for bringing that over! WEEE only 3 days now guys!

Seersha, to embed the vids you just put yt in brackets and then the letters of the link of the video. So for the video you posted, it would look like this: [yt*]Tksjcrrislo[/yt*] (minus the astericks, I put them there so you could see the coding and the video wouldn't embed). I hope that helps! If you have any more questions you can PM me and I'd be happy to help.

Thank you!

kdjsfhsdkjfghsdf THE PREMIERE <3 I LOVED IT. Loved every second of it. I don't even know if I can have coherent enough thoughts to discuss right now, but imma try LOL. So ummm first off, Anna Torv SLAYED. SLAYED the entire episode. Ausiello and everyone was right, she TOTES deserves an Emmy nom just from the premiere. AMAZING. The first scene when she was just sitting in the room with the psychiatrist was just ... BLEW ME AWAY. I cannot even put into words. She killed this episode. For reals.

And OMG I totally DID NOT SEE COMING that Olivia would start to think she was the other one. I figured the treatments just wouldn't work on her because she's a cortexiphan kid or something, BUT OMG NO. NO NO NO. Olivia thinks she's her alternate self now. NOOOOOO. I'm sure she'll remember who she is again eventually, BUT GAH! I knew once Henry said that she had a good shot she was starting to think it over, you could see it in her face. But yeah I did not see that coming in the SL, good twist writers. I'm interested to see how she starts to remember again.

Henry the cab driver FTW. FOR REALS I loved him. I think he definitely believed Olivia when she said she's not who they think she is, and I think he's going to play a key role in eventually getting her back home. I just have this feeling. I loved his line about "Sometimes you just gotta believe in what you can't see.". I think it's so true in Fringe, and just in life in general.

UMMM OK P/O stuff now. So MEGA AWW to Olivia mumbling Peter's name after she was knocked out at the Opera House. And TRIPLE AWW to this whole convo with Henry in the cab: "You got someone?" "Sort Of." "Sort of? That's an odd name, sort of." "His name is Peter and he's sort of the reason I'm here." <3333 BUT OMG when they went back to our universe and PETER KISSED ALT!LIV. KSFHDJKFHKSDJFJ THIS STORYLINE IS GOING TO KILL ME. For reals. I just have to keep thinking to myself that Peter thinks she's HIS Olivia.

On a randomer note, I liked seeing more of the other side! All the signs for the advanced technology they have like the daily flights to the moon, and HOW COOL that gym was Nick and Charlie were in. I love spotting all those things.

So yeah overall AMAZING EP. If this is how the rest of the season goes, it's going to be one INTENSE, AMAZING season. I can't wait!
