Fringe: Season 4

4x05 Novation

The thing about this whole "no one knows Peter but he knows everything!!" arc is that it's frustrating as a viewer. We know that they're all supposed to know him, so all this running around being suspicious of him is just aggravating. This would've been a better plot arc had Peter been a completely new character. Or, if it looked like Peter but they claimed they were someone else, or if it was some unknown dude saying they're Peter. Then the fact that he knows all this stuff would be mysterious. But as it is, you're just waiting for the inevitable reset or whatever trigger allows them to move past this.

Here's the thing about the soft reboot which after five episodes more or less settled in with me: it is exciting to watch the creators trying to reinvent themselves and raise the stakes, but I cannot shake the feeling that it's a distraction or procastination because they swept a bunch of questions under the rag, so instead of explaining those, they are showing something completely different so I would forget about Charlie and Lincoln and Walternate or the machine and its unknown origins, and it is barely working. Also: with the alternate timeline revealing information became so messed up, instead of setting some stuff that we needed to know, they are just throwing in lore of what changed and what didn't like those things are not supposed to matter? Like I am rewarded with information which make me feel I was already supposed to know, except I didn't. They should stop raising the stakes for five minues, sit down and deal with the current problems not walking past and ignoring them.

P.S.: I hope at least Walternate shows up at some point, it could be interesting to see how he reacts to the news of his son being alive.
