The Fringe Podcast Episode 504-In Absentia

Oct 7, 2012 | 2 comments

In episode 504 of The Fringe Podcast we discuss Fringe season 5 episode titled, “In Absentia.” Darrell uses information about Simon and the angel device to update his theory about the Observers and shapeshifters. Clint shares his musings on the motivation of the Observers and why they chose to invade at this specific moment in time. We also discuss the character of Gael Manfretti and how he might come into play later this season. We discuss the character development between Olivia and Etta, why this felt more like a normal Fringe episode, and how long the video tape scavenger hunt might take. Clint shares insights into retina scanners and other types of security measures in our science of tomorrow segment.

In this episode we also announce the Bridge the Backstory CONTEST! This contest begins now, and concludes on October 31, 2012. Click here for the full details on the contest, prizes and rules.

    Listening to the podcast. You guys missed a couple of things. You mentioned Peter and Olivia’s dreams not really meaning anything. You missed that their dreams had differences. Peter is wearing a different shit in Olivia’s dream. Also the blanket is a different color. So this being Fringe you got to wonder whats going on.

    Also I think Joel Wyman has said there won’t be a whole episode of flashbacks. We’ll get flashes through out the season but not an entire ep.

    In your request for hate mail, you mockingly said that you though “New Girl was a great show.” When it truly is a pretty great show.

    The first 3-4 episodes the show was still trying to figure itself out and if that is your only exposure to the show than, I would agree with you that the show is not very good. However, the show and the characters are much more devoloped now and has become a pretty terrific show. In the beginning the show was all about Jess, Zooey Deschanel’s character, but it has evoloved and has become as much about her roomates as it is about her and the cast is terrific. Jake Johnson is amazing in the show, in fact he has been appearing in several movies as a result of the show (Safety Not Guaranteed, 21 Jump Street, etc). Give the show another chance.

    Love the podcast, keep up the good work.
