Watching it now, not quite halfway. Passing thoughts so far:

- Anna Torv does a passable Nimoy, but it's getting old fast
- Paula Malcolmson!
- finally! Lincoln on our side!

[DigiFluid]

Done now. Enjoyed this one a whole lot more than last week, even in spite of its being a largely standalone story. I really hope to see more of Over Here Lincoln in the future.

I expected to be really annoyed by Anna Torv doing a Nimoy impression, but she was surprisingly convincing. Only the voice grated on me from time to time.

That woman ending up dead in the end was a real surprise. I figured she'd become the new host, especially since it was such a well-known actress. Well, who knows - this is Fringe after all, so nobody is ever really dead.

My guess is we'll see this version of Lincoln Lee again. And that there's more to him than meets the eye. After he'd said good-bye to Peter, there was this weird look on his face - calculating, and sort of steely (can't think of a better word). Made me think the whole 'nerdy' vibe is just an act.

Paula Malcomson rocks my socks. You go girl. I miss Caprica.

Our Lincoln was fun in his own geeky way. Hope he comes back to chill for a bit.

Bellivia was fine, and Anna looked like she was having fun. Poor, poor, Astrid though. Getting hit on like that.

This whole Bell Olivia thing reminds me of Unearthed

I thought Anna Torv captured Nimoy's mannerisms really well.

Interesting to see where the William Bell situation will go. Obviously he can't stay in Olivia forever, and i don't think they'd kill him off. I wonder if Massive Dynamic will clone a version of his body for him to inhabit, i wouldn't put it past them.

The woman who couldn't die was a nice diversion, but kind of pointless. Nice to Licoln on our side, and i have no doubt we'll be seeing more of him sometime. I will say that the way Peter is being written as an angsty whiner is getting on my nerves. Theres only so much emoness i can take in my sci fi shows, and sgu has taken up a fair amount of that allotment.

I really enjoyed this episode. It was great to watch it a second time this evening, this time with my wife. That ending has me a little concerned though.

lol that was hilarious, Olivia and Walter snickering was hilarious.

I had myself a re-watch with my kids as well, and it made me look at the ending in a totally different way. Maybe I'm just slow on the uptake, but do you think that Bellie tried to shift into Peter? He offered him tea, which is how he got the soul magnets into Olivia in the first place. And he'd been at the house for a while, so he knew that they could hear a bell ringing at certain intervals. I don't trust the guy, who knows if his agenda isn't to get his hands on that machine. In Peter's body he'd be able to control it. The way Olivia said 'Peter' almost sounded like a warning, maybe she was able to somehow prevent Bell from switching.

Excellent episode. I thought Anna Torv rocked!

[Sp!der]

Yes it was an awesome episode!!! I loved seeing Paula again, I think I am going to watch caprica soon again. I miss this show as well. Belly and Walter are just cute together and yeah poor astrid. I have to say that I did not notice Lincoln first. I always thought who is that guy but halfway through he episode it made click. I miss over there hopefully we are going to see soon the side again. Great episode and better than last week hopefully they concentrate more on the main arc more.. Obviously in the season final at least.

Personally, I don't see it that way. I think Olivia was never supposed to surface at all. Bell did not anticipate that happening, and he may now be concerned with what else may occur. Things are not going according to his plan now.

Ah, okay. So maybe my first impression was correct. I was quite surprised anyway that a random church bell was able to cause this. Until now I was of the impression that it had to be the sound of William Bell's bell. There must be more to that thing if Olivia was able to hear it all the way from the Massive Dynamic HQ at the end of Os.
