spock Spock Says Goodbye Tonight

Star Trek, Fringe and Leonard Nemoy enthusiasts will say a sad goodbye to the original Vulcan himself as his final screen performance will air tonight in the second half of the season finale of Fringe. I have to admit, I’m a little sad at the news. I thought he did a wonderful job as Spock in the new Star Trek and although Belly is really only in Fringe for like a total of 15 minutes, it still sticks out in my mind. In any case, the second part of the2-part finale tonight should be a great one.

As we learned last week, Peter has been abducted by the Walternate and brought to the other side. Walter, Olivia and a team of Kortexifan experiments traveled across to the other side and now only Olivia and Walter are alive. I’m really excited to see a confrontation between Walter and the Walternate as well as blond Olivia versus Brunette Olivia. (I just re-read the beginning of this paragraph and I realize how ridiculous this sounds now….)

But that’s the beauty of Fringe – they make you believe in the ridiculous and get invested in the characters over the plot lines. Can’t wait to see how this ends, although it will bring for a long and Fringe-less summer. Hopefully the DVD set will come out soon.
