Still can't believe it's the last Season .

[LOC]

Anyone else feel they just used the observers as the main baddies out of necessity? I mean I know they had the future episode last season where they showed that they had taken over etc, but really? The entire point of the show is the observers are the bad guys?

Also, Leonard Nimoy

I personally feel that this was something that they had in works for a while. This is from 2x03.



“The enemy is among us, and nobody is doing anything about it. We have no idea the end is coming. THEY are here collecting data, making observations. That’s what’s in the briefcase. They’ve been planning for war and they’ve been passing information via courier right under our noses.”

“We don’t know who they are, but I can tell you what they want. They want to exterminate us. So they are studying us…our culture, our technology, our science. And they plan to use it against us.”

“One way or another, we’ll find out who they are, but by then, I suppose, it won’t really matter because whatever is in those cases is going to destroy us all.”

Yeah but if the observers are us from the future, wouldn't killing us all or enslaving us etc screw up their future even more?

Depends from what universe they are.

PS That said, according to Walter the Earth became uninhabitable soon after 2600 (2609 from what I recall). With all the advances in technology I'm finding it hard to believe we couldn't fix things or just relocate to another planet. Going back in time, inhabit a past/different Earth and enslave the native population doesn't really seem a practical solution. I also wonder why everyone looks more or less the same and is male in the future. Hopefully they'll give us some answers to that.


One thing I noticed when seeing the skyline of New York in "our" universe One World Trade Center is nowhere to be seen. What's up with that?

Would it really matter in the end? If the invade "our" universe and wipe out most of humanity and enslave the rest etc, then their own future would change even more (for the worse one would imagine). If they invade the other universe (or any other) they'd still be in that universe they invade, and their future would still be affected. Going back in time in one universe doesn't change things in another universe right? Or have they stated otherwise in the series someplace? Because that would make zero sense at all.

I haven't been this excited about a series in a long time. Should be awesome.

If the observers are from Universe X and they go back in time in Universe Y I don't see how it would affect their future.

Exactly. Since they seem to be able to see through time, and dimensions (right?) one would assume they would see the damage they would do if they went back in time to kill humanity off mostly, so it doesn't make much sense to me that they've done this at all. Perhaps there is another reason, or hell, maybe William Bell is behind it all
