We are joined by Jerame for this episode as we discuss one of the best, most pivotal episodes of Fringe! Join us as we talk about what we love about this episode (especially the fact that we finally, after 75 episodes, find out “who or what” the Observers are) but also a couple of things that have us feeling just a tad frustrated.

Join us this week as we talk all about what it means to be a better human being! Pavla and Darrell dive into this episode that has many parallels to the Fringe pilot and “Marionette.” We take a look at the developments in the Peter and Olivia relationship, the impact the music has on one particular scene, discuss Walter’s behavior toward Peter, and earn some cool stuff about the Czech Republic.

We are visiting the small Vermont town of Westfield this week along with Missnett and are so excited to be talking about this amazing episode of Fringe and its similarities to The X-Files, Twin Peaks, and horror. We love how the stakes feel so high and how the Olivia of this timeline is finally starting to get her previous memories back, and we share some great feedback from our great listeners!

We are joined by the GSM Podcasts legend Geoff (xforce11) this week as we discuss this myth-alone episode midway through season 4 – “Making Angels”! We love the interactions between the two Astrids as well as between Foelivia and Walter but also touch upon some minor issues with the writing.

We are looking at this episode of Fringe from a forced perspective, but it’s kind of nice that it’s just the two of us for once! Even though this episode is mostly a standalone episode, it’s still a really beautiful episode with a great wraparound.

We are joined by a friend (or are they an enemy of our enemy?) this episode, Keilly, as we discuss this great episode of Fringe! We discuss the callbacks to previous seasons and episodes that we love; tip our hats to great performances from cast members such as Jared Harris, John Noble, and Orla Brady; and so much more!

We are going back to where we’ve never been (or have we?) this week as Michael London of Fringe Connections joins us again to discuss this pivotal episode of season 4! We talk about how we have been feeling about this season vs. how we felt back in the day, discuss the references to The Wizard of Oz, Walternate’s shift in character, and much more!

We are joined by Erin for this episode as we discuss the episode “And Those We’ve Left Behind,” or, as Darrell calls it, “The Stephen Root Episode.” We talk about why this episode remains so memorable to Fringe fans and how the magic of Stephen Root and Rosy Rosemont being a couple in real life adds to the authenticity of their performances in this episode!
S4E5 Novation

It’s just us this episode as we take on “Novation,” Peter’s first full episode this season. We reflect on some of the theories that we had back in the day about who was behind the Shapeshifters 2.0 (one of which was surprisingly quite… valid) and how we felt vs. now feel about Peter’s (sort of) return to this timeline.
