TV commentary:

Fringe- I had a feeling that was going to be the case! When the Nina in FBI custody was astonished, it was pretty fairly obvious that she was the real/"good" Nina Sharpe, and the one being held hostage with Liv was the fake/"bad" one.

But heh, I also had a feeling when Olivia was talking about how her life was a haze now, that she was testing Nina, and Nina had failed and Liv knew she was a fake. Interesting, I don't think she's a shifter, but then who is she? We never saw a Nina-alternate in the previous season's timeline. In the new version of events, is there a Nina-alt, who is evil and working with Jones?

So we knew September effed things up with the cure, but he says in the efforts to rectify the mistake they only made it worse, culminating in Peter impregnating the wrong Olivia and a child being born who shouldn't have. Which is interesting because its Fauxlivia who was knocked up. Who was the one from his world. I mean, its curious because if not for September's mistake, then Walter wouldn't have had to grab Peter to cure him. And if he didn't do that, he would've never traveled to the blue side and met Olivia.

And if he was meant to make a family with that Olivia, how would he have met her in the way things went "originally"? Also, he also said the war between the two universes took a drastically different turn. If that's the case how would the war have started, given Peter's kidnapping was the impetus. Then again, it seems this David Jones is causing trouble again, even though the new Walternate had no idea who he was in the new version of things.

I guess that one manuscript said war was inevitable, and Peter's kidnapping started it on the show orginally, but I guess if that didn't do it something else would.

Its also frustrating that Peter keeps on effin ad-libbing what the Observer says. Was there more to the message than for Peter to go to the house? I mean, I was annoyed the Observer was all, "You need to go home" and then Peter was all, "Yeah, he said I needed to get back to my own timeline/universe!" That's not what he said it all! And I was glad when he was all, "Oh, maybe I'm making this too complicated, and he meant my literal home". Which did lead him to Olivia. And I think that's all the Observer meant, because it will probably put Peter on the right path.

But then at the end, he's back to thinking he needs to go back to his timeline, as the Observer said. Argh! Also, he's back to thinking he's somehow imprinting on Olivia, when didn't he determine last episode he couldn't, since she knew things he didn't know?

Degrassi- Okay, Marisol was always kinda shady, going after dudes with kids with another girl. But its kinda weird that Katie was trying to convince Fiona to throw Imogen under the bus/convince Imogen to take the fall. And then helping Mar screw over Fiona as well? Isn't she supposed to be the good one of those two? I mean, I guess she was freaked about losing her student council position, but that still seems uncharacteristic. Also, its weird people don't know Fiona is an alky. I guess since she's retaking senior year, she's with a whole new set of people, but she said herself she was practically the shadow of the most popular girl in school, and one half of the rich Coyne siblings, who were the talk of the school when they first showed up. I figured she'd have been in the spotlight and everyone would know her business.

This was SO annoying to me, like they wrote him deliberately obtuse and stupider than usual when he's NOT stupid. I know it was partially "omg baby?!" stuff but Peter's not normally THAT idiotic. I don't like it when a character is written stupider than usual to progress plot in a certain way, so I'm hoping maybe there's something else going on, ha (since the writing is usually not bad).

Deliberately obtuse is a good way to put it. What's even more frustrating is that he's the character who's always, "Wait, let's think about this, maybe we're going about this all wrong", the one who's about subverting assumptions. And here he is, assuming.
