To me it was pretty obvious that it wasn’t *Olivia* after the grenade went off after when William Bell was unconscious

Same here, I finally got around to watching it. Decent finale with Olivia sadly in Walternate's prison (Y) :(

I really hope Nimoy comes back for the next season in some form.

I'd say he will probably in a flash back.. or something.. it's like we didn't expect Charlie back at all. lol.

A scene cut from the Fringe season finale is available as a "Ford exclusive." Which makes sense, considering it's mostly product placement for the Taurus. But don't be fooled - there are clues about Violet Sedan Chair here too.

Great finale, but honestly how did they not realise that it wasn't Olivia

Yeah, I have a little problem with that, too - (after returning (with Broyles somehow knowing when they would show up)) "Boy! That was weird! Well, gotta go - see ya! Umm, where do I live?" I only started watching with season two, but, for Fringe, certain aspects of the two-part-finale seemed a bit on the weak side (starting with the previous episode's seemingly simple crossing over for Walternate and Peter).

What would be a twist is that we're being duped - the switcheroo was NOT successful. Maybe Fringe got enough intel to begin to infiltrate the alt-universe's operations from this side, with Olivia posing as Altivia over here, and Altivia in trouble with Walternate over there for botching up the switch and/or losing Peter (Olivia/Altivia and Walternate didn't really say much at the holding cell that would discount this). Dunno, this show seems to be too young, and the writers too creative to be resorting to the old evil-twin-switcheroo ploy, even if it is Fringe-style.

Great finale, but honestly how did they not realise that it wasn't Olivia

They didn't realize it wasn't her because they both looked pretty much identical (thanks to the real Olivia's disguise).

Yeah, but I think the point CCoil was trying to make is that the two worlds are so different that Altlivia couldn't have known enough to not give it away.

Yes, she must've got out of the theater pretty quick, without saying much (if it was Altivia). You would figure Broyles would want some details, and she's the only real FBI agent of those three. I'm sure Peter wouldn't have just let her leave after their exchange in the alt-universe.

speaking on Olivia-

The only real differences is the tattoo on the other world -- but I would almost bet that it is going to be her niece that exposes her.. (just a big hunch) When she gives the alternate Olivia the necklace back and the alternate does not respond back. However the alternate only knows the name of counterpart (the real Olivia's) niece but does not know what she looks like. The alternate Olivia could probably fake it with Peter since she had some knowledge that the two of them had a relationship or that she might actually fall in love with Peter and expose herself and hope that Peter will take her.

Though I found the death of the three people who crossed over was a surprise.

Walternate has the orignal olivia captive, looking at the tech on the other side dont you feel walternate can feed Altivia all the info she needs to survive the disguise.

Though the alter olivia-- may actually fall in love with the niece and decide to free our Olivia so she can reunite the two of them together--- I still say she won't be able to fool the child... perter maybe with all the world jumping......though they may surprise us even more. or she may miss her mother and want to go home.

    • too bad the "backend" June 2026 ESD files are still at build 26200.8653 and not at the correct build 26200.8655 release. I'll avoid using the MCT for several weeks until late July 2026
    • Qualcomm's new Snapdragon Reality Elite chip brings on-device AI to Android XR devices by Pradeep Viswanathan Qualcomm has been delivering dedicated SoCs for mixed reality and spatial computing devices for several years. The journey started with the Snapdragon XR1, followed by the Snapdragon XR2 in 2019, the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 in September 2023, and finally the Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 in 2024. Today, Qualcomm announced a major upgrade with the new Snapdragon Reality Elite Platform, which targets premium mixed reality and spatial computing devices. OEMs can use this SoC to power both all-in-one video-see-through headsets and lightweight, tethered optical-see-through glasses. Qualcomm highlighted that the Snapdragon Reality Elite will power the next wave of Android XR devices coming later this year. These wearables will offer better visuals, improved power efficiency, and deeper on-device AI integration compared to the previous generation. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can deliver up to 48 TOPS of AI performance, allowing large language models and large vision models to run directly on the device for the first time. In addition to enabling new spatial AI experiences, these new AI capabilities will improve head and hand tracking, as well as see-through features. On the performance side, the Snapdragon Reality Elite offers up to 60% higher GPU performance, up to 30% higher CPU performance, and up to 160% higher NPU performance compared to the previous generation. The platform supports visuals of up to 4.4K per eye at 90 frames per second for sharper images and smoother motion. Qualcomm is also claiming significant efficiency improvements. The Snapdragon Reality Elite can offer up to 20% longer battery life under the same workload. More importantly, the chipset can run up to 12 degrees Celsius cooler under load, making headsets more comfortable for users to wear for longer periods. The platform also includes improvements to video see-through, featuring lower latency and better image quality. Qualcomm states that its EVA hardware block helps accelerate demanding computer vision workloads, improving how digital content blends with the real world.
    • Umm... GitHub continues to use AWS. That's the story, that's the headline. There's no "new" news here. GitHub continues to require additional capacity beyond the originally-planned Azure allocations. There's nothing special about this; nothing noteworthy. They're still using AWS' infra until the cutover is complete.
