After Olivia (Anna Torv) and Walter (John Noble) both recognized they were getting visions of the strange guy, they set to discover his identity. Considering that Peter (Joshua Jackson) needed the kind of an exciting blue blob of a person's -- an undesirable effect of trying to combine into the timeline -- he found them first. After watching The Energy Blob absorbing everything metal, they improperly assumed it had been a real rogue cortexiphan patient Olivia had formerly experienced who had an opportunity to project themselves . Despite the fact that they hunted lower the subject in mind, calculates he wasn't responsible for The Blob, but sometimes destroy it. Fringe Scoop: Peter returns... but nobody recalls him! Fortunately, realizing it absolutely was literally the man of her dreams, Olivia stopped the person with time, though he still apparently provided enough juice for Peter to return in corporeal form at Reiden Lake, the web site more than-there Peter's dying when he will be a boy. So, Peter has came back - but nobody recalls him, as displayed when Olivia mentioned, "That are you?" Who's he indeed? Because this is the convoluted arena of Fringe, we must understand this specific new Peter, therefore we have come up with 5 things to learn about him as well as the reality he's facing since he's returned: 1. Peter 2. is unquestionably improving: Peter is technically the identical guy we now have showed up at know and love, but he isn't the man we first met. "Because the guy that individuals met in the beginning of Fringe did not have need to be there, and progressively got warped into this, as John which i known into it, fanboy," Jackson formerly told us. "Throughout doing that, he kind of went from being the impetuous teen in the show to kind of sulking inside the corner, to actually like a guy. As well as the guy who return for the show after you have sacrificed themselves for your adoration for his household is yet another guy. In my opinion he's developed a good deal. In my opinion another guy returns in comparison to guy that left." 2. You will notice trust issues: They may not know him, but Peter still keeps all his recollections of those, that can make the Fringe Division to put him on lockdown. "When he appears proclaiming each one of these points and knowing each one of these points, it's freaky," Lance Reddick states. "Broyles' attitude is always that it's possible what he's saying is true, nevertheless the last place I'm prone to do is always to believe him... no less than at first. It must acquire a place where there is lots validity for the information he's and how he helps, by using time, he's given progressively more trust and progressively more freedom to make use of, work and help." Fringe Bosses: Peter never existed, nevertheless the last three seasons still did 3. Peter and Walter won't be playing catch soon: Poor Peter, he probably expected a warm welcome from his father, but all Walter sees might be the man that's been haunting his visions. "'Oh hey there, I'm your son' -- It won't be, 'Oh thank heavens for the,AInch Noble told us on set. "Around Walter may wish it to be [such as this] - and we'll see some that, but we're not able to resolve the exact same thing soon, therefore we have arrived at build that factor through. You will notice some resolution inside the first 1 / 2 of year.Inch 4. Peter and Olivia aren't using a tree: Oh, the way in which you want it were enjoy old occasions and they'd just come under one another peoples arms, but Torv states, "In this timeline, Olivia doesn't know who he's, too as with Peter's timeline, it needed them a really very long time to acquire together, so..." 5. Baby Henry isn't a gleam in Peter's eye: Due to the fact Peter has came back, does not necessarily mean his baby with Bolivia instantly will probably be, too. "It is not possible should they have never met," Torv states. "Unless of course obviously we finish off coming back for the other timeline, that might happen." Are you currently presently excited that Peter has came back? Appear off inside the comments!

Mega Buzz: A Grey's Reunion? Plus: New Hookups on CSI and Big Bang Theory

Eric Dane, Marg Helgenberger, Jim Parsons Every week, editors Adam Bryant and Natalie Abrams satisfy your need for TV scoop. Please send all questionsto mega_scoop@tvguide.com. Is there a chance that Lexie and Mark will reunite on Grey's Anatomy? -Jessica NATALIE: Mark still clearly cares about Lexie, which won't go unnoticed by Jackson's mother (Debbie Allen), who makes an appearance in this week Grey's. "Jackson is dealing with that in a mature way, being aware of it, but not being obsessed with it," Jesse Williams says. "Jackson is learning that he can't control everything." Still, "Mark is doing a fairly admirable job about staying in his place. He really cares a lot about Jackson as a student and a surgeon." What's up for Catherine in her last season on CSI? - Meg ADAM: The show is cooking up lots of stories for her final season, most significantly a potential relationship. First, we'll meet an old friend Catherine hasn't seen in 22 years, but don't let that distract you from the real sparks. A sexy FBI agent is waiting in the wings. Their initial meeting is not cute: His team "assists" on one of the CSI team's cases, much to Catherine's chagrin. But once the pair survives a brush with death, they decide to celebrate ... with a roll in the hay. Got any Big Bang Theory scoop? - Emma NATALIE: One of the nerds (as always, I say that lovingly) is getting some action! Actually, it's a little action on the side because the nerd in question already has a significant other and will be locking lips with a new girl. You can rule out Raj because for one, he's single, and two, the nerd in question isn't drunk when the multiple kisses - yes, we said multiple - take place. I need more information on the NCIS: Los Angeles-Hawaii Five-0 crossover. - Peter ADAM: While the crossover will span two episodes, if you're hoping to see McGarrett & Co. stateside, keep dreaming. NCIS:LA executive producer Shane Brennan hints that Kensi's trip to Hawaii is not just for business. "She's in Hawaii for two reasons," Brennan teases. "You get to see one of them on Hawaii Five-0.And the other one, you'll have to wait for later in our season. She's keeping very quiet about it." Secret Hawaiian rendezvous? Sounds like a job for Danno, no? (But what will guest star Autumn Reeser have to say about that?) Is Gemma really dead on Ringer? - Marcus NATALIE: It sure looks that way, huh? But... no, she isn't. In possibly related news, Bridget's new stand-in sponsor while Malcolm is being drugged to high heaven? He may not be such a good guy. "Appearances are deceiving," executive producer Eric Charmelo says. "Everybody... has this duplicitous nature. Anyone and everyone is suspect and that's intentional." With all this talk of a Castle wedding for Ryan, when are we going to see Esposito and Lanie get more serious? - Nicole ADAM: Maybe never. "Esposito and Lanie's relationship is not going to be a smooth relationship," Jon Huertas says. "Esposito or Lanie might think that they want to [settle down], but the other one might not be ready to go there. That's going to create a little bit of a storm in their relationship." I don't like the timeline change on Fringe. - Holden NATALIE: Yeah, it's a little confusing, right? But unfortunately for you (and me), things have changed on an even bigger scale than it now appears. "It's not like Peter came into their lives and then everything after that is different from what we've seen," Jasika Nicole says. "There are things that are different from even before then that you will discover in a future episode." Recalling "Jacksonville," Nicole says, "That's something that happened before Peter was around, but think about if Peter was never there, even that flashback episode we did last season, that never would've happened. The changes are in an even bigger arc than it seems initially." New Girl isn't on until November? Give me something to make the wait go by faster. - Wes ADAM: Later this season, Nick has a medical emergency. But because he doesn't have insurance, he turns to Jess, whose friend is a gynecologist. We're not going to tell you what his ailment is, but at least we'll finally find out if Nick has a bun in the oven. (Oh wait, that's Gossip Girl, not New Girl.) What's coming up on The Secret Circle? - Harriet NATALIE: Fans of the books may be excited - or angry, for Adam and Cassie 'shippers - because the first inkling of something deeper between Cassie and Nick may soon be coming. "It's very, very possible," Britt Robertson says very, very coyly. "Cassie and the Armstrong family will have some sort of relationship blossom." So that'll make it a love pentagon? That's more than The Vampire Diaries! I am going to miss Gus on Breaking Bad, but I am so glad Giancarlo Esposito is going to be on Once Upon a Time. What can you tell me about that role? - Brad ADAM: He plays the Evil Queen's Magic Mirror. But like every character on the show, he has a different role in the non-fairy tale world, where he works as a newspaper editor named Sidney. Unlike his mystical counterpart, Sidney doesn't speak the truth, but rather prints whatever the Evil Queen/Mayor wants him to -- especially when a suspicious fire kills the town sheriff. I'm not sure how I feel about Dexter's religious dogma this season. Is there anything cool coming up? - Jack NATALIE: If you thought the seven snakes were gross, just wait until this week's episode. "If you know your Bible, a lot of stuff is very visceral," executive producer Sara Colleton teases. "Some of [what's coming] is imagery from the Bible, and some are man-made horrors, but it's Dexter's exploration of spirituality." Maybe we have a sick mind, but we ponder if Abraham sacrificing his son will come into play. Fair question, no? "You have a really vivid imagination," Colleton laughs, "and that's all I will say on that." I'm loving Homeland, but that scene where Brody prays in the garage pretty much confirms that he has been turned, right? - Alex ADAM: Nope - at least not definitively. That reveal won't come until midseason, says executive producer Alex Gansa. Until then, "everything he does, everything he says through the first sweep of episodes can be open to interpretation. When Brody prays, does that mean he's a terrorist? Or does that mean he just embraced Islam because there was nothing else to cling on to in his captivity? That is kind of the fun of the show." Natalie's Mega Rave: Thank you to Desperate Housewives for finally giving Vanessa Williams something to do other than be Wilhelmina Slater 2.0. While the other ladies are off concealing a capital crime, Renee has shown us a whole new side of the piranha-like maneater in endearing scenes with Lee and his adopted daughter. We're actually rooting for the formerly self-involved Mrs. Yankee. Adam's Mini Rant: Breaking Bad is so good, it has ruined all other TV shows for me.

Rose, after all, is the name of the baby Kristins SATC character, Charlotte York Goldenblatt, had in the first big screen installment of the HBO franchise. That occurred to me, Sarah Jessica Parker smiled, when asked about the coincidence by Access Hollywood on Monday. But its a beautiful old-fashioned name, and Kristin is a really old fashioned girl, Sarah Jessica continued. Shes a southern-raised kind of She has a real traditional streak, so I think its a beautiful name Its nice. SJP hasnt yet seen Kristins own baby girl yet, but shes over the moon for her longtime co-star and friend.

Im really excited, Sarah Jessica said about the return of her show, a reality TV competition series, based around emerging artists. Im still kind of in disbelief that we found a home for a show about art, because it was not necessarily something that people cottoned to immediately. Im so thrilled that we got to have a second season, she added. Copyright 2011 by NBC Universal, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed.

Charles Napier RIP

The Blues Brothers star has diedCharles Napier, star of The Blues Brothers, The Silence Of The Lambs and Philadelphia died yesterday at the age of 75.Reports from at Bakersfield Memorial Hospital, California, do not mention his cause of death, but he had been taken to hospital in previous years over issues with blood clots in his legs.The much-loved tough guy character actor is perhaps best remembered for his role as Tucker McElroy in The Blues Brothers and his immortal line, "You're gonna look pretty funny tryin' to eat corn on the cob with no fuckin' teeth!"Also seen as General Hawk in the first two Austin Powers movies, he's appeared in everything from out-and-out comedy to more serious dramas.Die hard fans will know him from roles in TV shows like Curb Your Enthusiasm, Diagnosis Murder, and more recently, Archer, where he voiced the character of Dr. Spelts.With a back catalogue many actors working today would be very jealous of, he's kept himself very busy indeed over the years, making his abrupt farewell all the more difficult.He is survived by his two sons, Hunter and Whit, and his daughter, Meghan. He will be sorely missed.

Charles Fort Will get His Movie Moment

From producer Robert ZemeckisWhile he's making strides back to live-action filmmaking like a director with Flight, Robert Zemeckis can also be keeping his producer's hat on, backing a brand new project known as Charles Fort at Universal.If the title perhaps you have itching your mind, some background: Fort, born in NY in 1874, required a driving curiosity about the inexplicable. A sceptic by character, he nonetheless went after research into odd phenomena from the sort that science tended to reject or ignore. He released several books and short tales, but continues to be most well-known for his game titles It from the Damned, New Lands and Wild Talents. His title grew to become symbolic of the search for the strange and apparently inexplicable and the jobs are still adopted today, especially by individuals who enjoy monthly journal the Fortean Occasions.Based on the Warmth Vision blog, Snow Whitened and also the Huntsman author Evan Spiliotopoulos' pitch for that idea results in like a "period Ghostbusters." Considering the fact that Dark Equine comics switched the sceptic right into a go-getting investigator who worked with aliens and villains at the begining of twentieth century NY, we figure this is the kind of position Universal is searching to consider. Especially because of the box office success of Robert Downey Jr's action-packed A Virtual Detective. We are less than sure Fort needs to find the hero make-over, however it remains to appear whether or not this works...
