FRINGE speculation

[mik3cap]

Do not read if you don't wanna.


So they made the big reveal last episode - the overarching story is about inter-dimensional invasion. I think it's pretty clear that Massive Dynamic is a player in the inter-dimensional war, though I don't think it's totally clear what side they're on. I will speculate this much though:

William Bell, CEO of Massive Dynamic, is actually Walter Bishop from another dimension. I suspect it's a dimension where the lab accident that killed the assistant in our dimension didn't kill her, and Bishop didn't get institutionalized as a result (thus allowing their dimension to advance farther in technology).

IN FACT, I think the lab assistant from the other dimension ONLY LOST HER ARM in that explosion. And she's currently the Executive Director of Massive Dynamic. Whether or not MD is a beachhead for the invading forces, or whether they're allies from yet another dimension here to help ours prepare for war, remains to be seen.

I look forward to this show getting more and more batshit crazy.

Yes, I agree as well. I think it was just "building steam" as happens with many show's first seasons... they mustn't turn into "freak of the week", they need to keep building on that core story. It shouldn't just be Inter-dimensional X-files.

I've been enjoying the hell out of it. Perhaps my favorite show on tv these days. Hopefully they won't completely jump the shark and crush my hopes and dreams.

Have you seen Damages? That show also rocks.
