Outstanding episode. I really enjoyed this - hell I'm really enjoying this show overall at the moment it can do no wrong. Olivia was hotter than usual in a sexy sultry way and the acting was overall flawless.

Finale sounds great although I will miss it, I think its been good that this season has had a good mix of one off standalones and proceeding with the alternate world storyline.

Was different and was refreshing. But, couldn't help but feel a little bored beyond the 30th minute (I am talking about the 43min dloaded episode).?

The finale sounds kick-ass.

Didn't have nearly as much singing as I thought there would be. Was a fun episode, but the only part I didn't like was that they used a CG Leonard Nemoy. Irks me a lot that such a high profile actor is selected for a prominent role, only to actually appear so little. I know the guy has things that he does, but c'mon, that was all of 20 seconds worth of stuff, did they really have to make a CG version? Was he really too busy that he couldn't get in front of a camera? He did the voice work, at least I think he did. Bah humbug. /crying

Now we can get down to business for the next three weeks. Huzzah!

I think the trouble is that someone like Nimoy may not like to come down to shoot just a single 15 sec scene.

Did anyone else notice in the episode last week when Nina is talking to William Bell on the tv (which I actually quite liked!) he refers to her as "My Love"?

Interesting interview with Nimoy here where he hints that Nina might be the connecting factor between Walter and William:

Nimoy announced that he's retiring from acting. He said he's going going to have one final part in this season of Fringe then that's it. The guy's almost 80, I don't think it's worth the trouble for him to travel to the studio for a 15 second part.

Edit: oh yeah and this post is l33t.

Wow! Didn't know about his retiring. But, judging from his interview, he may continue if he is given a meaty enough role. I am hoping that this just means that he wont take up any new show.

    • Google Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer is leaving for OpenAI

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Google Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer is leaving for OpenAI by Pradeep Viswanathan Noam Shazeer is best known as one of the co-authors of the 2017 “Attention Is All You Need” paper, which introduced the Transformer architecture that now powers most large language models. He also worked on several major Google AI projects, including LaMDA, before leaving the company in 2021 to co-found Character.AI. He also authored the Sparsely-gated Mixture of Experts (2016) paper, which is popular among the AI community. After falling behind OpenAI and Anthropic a couple of years ago, Google brought Shazeer back in 2024 as part of a major deal with Character.AI. Through this deal, along with Noam, several other researchers returned to Google DeepMind. More recently, he was a vice president of engineering at Google and a technical co-lead for Gemini. Today, Noam Shazeer announced on X that he is leaving Google and joining OpenAI. In his post, Shazeer said it was a difficult decision to move on, adding that he was proud of the Google team and what it had built together. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman welcomed the move with a post of his own, saying Shazeer was one of the people he had most wanted to work with since OpenAI’s early days. Google has made strong progress with Gemini over the past year, closing the gap with OpenAI in several areas. But losing Noam Shazeer is a major talent setback for them, especially after bringing him back less than two years ago by spending a fortune. For OpenAI, the hire adds one of the industry’s most experienced language model researchers to a team that is already pushing ahead with ChatGPT, Codex, and its next generation of frontier models.
