The Day We Became Confused

The Fringe finale was confusing. “A major character will die!” “Peter meets his destiny!” “The Doomsday machine completes its purpose!” While all of those spoilers were true, I almost feel like the finale wasn’t a conclusion to the Season 3 arc, rather than a stand alone episode. We had no Lincoln Lee, no mention of Henry (Nugget; who may or may not exist now), no Sam Weiss, no Mr. X, no mention of William Bell, etc. A throwaway line by Peter as to who the First People were did not satisfy me at all, and if anything, soured the whole mythology of the First People.

Did I like the episode despite all of this? Yes. I’m a bit confused, though. Are we now to believe that the timeline of the show has been a flashback and it’s actually 2026 now? I almost hope that is the case, as I don’t want to see a ton of time travel on Fringe. I would guess, however, that we will not go forward again and will be in the 2011 current day for Season 4. Now that the teams from the two universes have been brought together, I’m not sure how everyone will get home.

I’m also no less confused by The Observers. I get the last scene, I really do, but what a messy way to achieve their means. There had to be a less complicated way to bridge the universes if the need was so great. OK, maybe I don’t fully get it; did they create Peter? Was he a Starbuckian avatar? I’ve read speculation close to that, and I guess it makes the most sense to me. Young Peter died in both universes, but Walter/Walternate still became entangled in the quantum entanglements that resulted from their work, leading to the same moment of decision in “The Day We Died.”

All I really know is that Fringe Season 4 needs to get here soon.

  6. Can I simply say what a relief to find an individual
    who really understands what they’re discussing on the web.
    You actually understand how to bring an issue to light and make it important.
    A lot more people really need to look at this and understand this side of your story.
    I can’t believe you aren’t more popular since
    you definitely possess the gift.

  7. I think that what you posted was very reasonable. However, think about
    this, what if you added a little content? I ain’t suggesting your content is not good, however what if you added a headline to maybe grab a
    person’s attention? I mean The Day We Became Confused | Fandom
    Love is kinda plain. You might peek at Yahoo’s home page and
    see how they write post titles to grab people to click. You might add a
    related video or a related pic or two to grab readers excited about
    what you’ve written. In my opinion, it might bring your posts a little livelier.

  10. Hey! I realize this is kind of off-topic but I had to ask.
    Does running a well-established blog such as yours take a large amount of work?
    I am completely new to blogging but I do write in my diary every day.
    I’d like to start a blog so I can easily share my
    experience and feelings online. Please let me know if you have any recommendations
    or tips for brand new aspiring bloggers. Appreciate it!

  11. When I originally commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now
    each time a comment is added I get three e-mails with the same comment.
    Is there any way you can remove people from that service?
    Thank you!

  12. Aw, this was a very good post. Taking the time and actual effort to create a
    good article… but what can I say… I put things off
    a lot and never seem to get nearly anything done.

  13. Magnificent website. A lot of helpful info here. I am sending it
    to some friends ans also sharing in delicious.

    And naturally, thank you to your effort!

    my web blog ?????

  14. Today, I went to the beach with my children. I
    found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her ear and
    screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.

    She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic
    but I had to tell someone!

  15. It’s a pity you don’t have a donate button! I’d
    most certainly donate to this fantastic blog!

    I guess for now i’ll settle for book-marking and adding your RSS feed to my Google
    account. I look forward to brand new updates and will share
    this site with my Facebook group. Chat soon!

  16. Having read this I thought it was very informative.

    it was still worth it!

  17. Howdy! This is my first comment here so I just wanted
    to give a quick shout out and tell you I genuinely enjoy reading
    your posts. Can you recommend any other blogs/websites/forums that go over the same subjects?
