  7. Walternate, David Robert Jones, Lincoln, Astrid, John McClennan & Aaron – 2pts
  8. Lincolnate, Emily Mallum & Simon Foster — 1pt

Got to be Olivia. Her displayed powers were just amazing. The sacrifice she was made (by Walter) and the ability to heal herself because of the cortexiphan and the end at the hospital were awesome moments (not that I really wanted to see her get shot). Go Dunhamnator!!!

I voted September … the guy stopped three bullets, and took a fourth without flinching ! Plus, he places himself at risk by telling Walter about the coming invasion … :-)

oh man I had to vote Bell because Nimoy had me looking forward to this episode so much and his performance had me on the edge of my seat the whole finale, BUT oh my lanta everyone was so incredibly awesome this episode! walter was deviously brilliant! olivia was so cool, amazing! peter was so sincere! and astrid was such a great performance, so sincere too! and not to mention how happy I was to get an influx of september, who is always brilliant (cerveris is probably the best actor on the show along side nimoy and john noble), in addition to all of our six living mains (cant forget broyles and nina!), bell & all that without lincoln (despite me liking the character it just felt right not having him around at this point, felt like season one, just, sadly, with no charlie…)

There are so many Peter lovers and Peter voters, that there has to be at least one Peter hater. And since Darth Kate is gone…

Why do some Olivia fans have to make rude and offensive comments when talking about Peter? You can love a character as much as you like, but how does that make you disrespect other characters, thus their fans, I cannot understand… (Correct me if I’m wrong, but I know you can’t make someone hate or love a character, so what’s the point in spreading these kinda comments exactly?)
Also, this “Who voted for Peter” trick is so old fashioned it doesn’t annoy us, his fans, anymore… So try something new. Thanks.

Just to clear something up, my post was directed to certain people, and I didn’t mean all Olivia fans. Just a few I saw here every now and then posting similar comments.
Okay, for the FOTW I was torn between Walter Olivia William Bell and Peter, but since the main three are always awesome, I voted for William Bell. And I looove Lionard Nimoy!!!

PeterFan – Well said, I agree with you 100%. I will keep my vote to myself, this was a difficult one, due to the great acting of all. I will add I am a fan of the entire cast and feel disapproval could be expressed if I revealed my vote.

Look, Peter was (beside Walter) my favorite character in Fringe in seasons 1 and 2. So what changed? Well, first of all, he is not funny like Walter or has superpowers like Olivia. So in season 3 (which I am a big fan of), especialy in the begining, the writers gave him a role of ”the guy that slept with the wrong Olivia’.
But what I find most disturbing is 6B, when Peter was acting like Olivia is the one, that is stopping their relationship. I know, that you can’t judge the character by one episode, but I kind of saw that episode many times, so it kind of grew under my skin (if that’s the right expression).

Plus, I have to whine about something! And since I liked Lincoln (please Lincoln haters, do me a favor, don’t comment on this one), who is gone now anyway, I have to find a scape goat (if that’s the right expresion). I don’t realy hate Peter, but I hate that he always gets a lot of votes. So Peter-lovers, don’t be too mad, when I post a coment about Peter getting many votes the next time.

hmm…that’s not the only reason he gave…there’s tons of reasons for Peter not being a fan’s favorite. Hate is a strong word. I would say shapeless/clueless characters like Peter makes me forget why they’re important in the first place. Same thing was happening to Walter, thank God he found his scientific roll again!. BTW, for me is rude how people talk to each other on this site when they read something they don’t like. This goes to the above comment from @PeterFan “Why do some Olivia fans have to make rude and offensive comments when talking about Peter?” (wrong, not only Olivia fans have made connotations about Peter) and this fan is defending @Deborah “Do you take your medicines?”….now THAT’S OFFENSIVE…I don’t understand who do you think you’re talking too?..mentally ill people?…come on!…Cortexiphan Kid is saying what he’s thinking about the poll’s outcome…nothing mysterious or hateful about that, just the facts. In my case I won’t watch ever again anything where Joshua Jackson appears. His fans are just unbearable for me.

I can’t believe we are getting into this stuff again, you guys. Can’t we all just be respectful to each other?

If you don’t like a comment, ignore it (unless it is blatantly disrespectful to someone else on this site). And if you disagree with someone, do so, but disagree with the ideas, don’t attack the person for having them.

I seriously can’t believe we can’t all just along. I love Fringe as much as the next guy but it is a TV SHOW. Let’s all be just a little bit less sensitive.

And Kid….I knew you were gonna get yourself in trouble with that avatar sooner or later ;)

I was just expressing my thoughts, and I’m afraid I’m going to this in the future too, because having your own opinion is one of the most important things for me. But if I get too offensive, worn me, because I realy don’t want to be the most hated person here, Infact, no one should be hated here, or anywhere else btw.

Sorry, I didn’t mean “dude hating”, I meant *a* dude who was hatin as opposed to *a* girl who was hatin. It was more about the “tone” … the tone of your posts sounded like A dude “hatin” verses a girl. Darth Kate gave off a vibe that made me think she was a female with her comments, regardless of whether or not her name gave it away lol.

In other words, the “way” you comment about Peter made me think you’re a guy lol ….

I voted for Walter, for finally being able to sacrifice someone he cared about for the fate of the Universe(s). It’s a lesson that’s taken him 27 years and two timelines, but he’s finally got there.

Something realy creepy just happened.
A weak earthquake has shaken my city. It was weak, so the earthquake itself wasn’t creepy at all, since we get earthquakes like this around three or four times a year.

What is realy creepy is that it was happening while I was watching Worlds Apart.

It’s all over the news here about Italy. So sad about some of those old historic buildings. Not much we can do about it unfortunately. Every area has its problems, floods, tornado’s, forest fires, but with earthquakes there is no warning. It’s a turbulent planet, that’s for sure.
