Yeah Peter even gets the last shot of the show iirc. Pacey gets a proper arc with closure, Olivia gets multiple soft reboots instead.

i wanted them to do more w Olivia & the Jones/Jared Harris character! their scenes in those early seasons were so electric

my big takeaway:these dads just need to grieve for their dead children & stop trying to time travel everytime a kid dies. also: is it just me or was there some kernel of possibility that David Robert Jones was Olivia’s real father? like a story thread that they may have hinted but never picked up. i was v fixated on the way he said “that’s my girl” after she completed the lightbulb test originally maybe it’s just me

anyway we finished the seriesFringe aka Dads: A Love Story is a very good series & 100% holds up the worst part of the whole series was Peter turning himself into an Observer but even that wasn’t terrible bc the rest of the story was good. oh and Joshua Jackson’s cry-acting is a bit too much, still bringing the old Dawson’s heat lol Give John Noble all his flowers, what a blessing he is to the series. Denethor The GOAT.

Just started back in with this on Max, having stopped midway through season 2. The season 2 episode with Peter Weller as a time traveler, "White Tulip," is fucking incredible. Noble and Weller have a scene together that might be the best thing I've seen, TV or movie, all year.
