I read this yesterday and didn't post it simply because the title is so very misleading.

Yeah I know. But because other sites such as imdb has posted it in the news section I decided to post it in order to see it.

Very misleading title for an article. I about had a heart attack, thank you very much, CinemaSpy.

To me, that article was pointless. It's obvious we know very little about the Peter character...but it would be stupid to assume that we'll never find out the truth...which I'm almost positive we will know by the end of season 2. Just relax, sit down and enjoy the ride. We'll get the truth all too soon, and then we'll cry because we know.

fair enough, I used to rely on IMDB quite alot till i realised the info isn t any more legit than any other site, only difference is Members post it not hollywood gurus...I was shocked...PFFFFT.

Yeah Rekka, i found it yesterday and had a similar reaction

[AnimeArchAngel]

Baaah, that scared me. :| People should just not write articles like that.

Joshua Jackson Ready to Quit 'Fringe'?
Peter Bishop has had very little to do in Season 2
By Blaine Kyllo | Monday, May 3, 2010


Fox recently renewed Fringe for a third season of 22 episodes. Joshua, if you're reading, give us another season before giving up.

This article has got to be a joke. It this had been written during season 1, I can understand but season 2 has started getting really deep into the Peter story from learning about his past to finding out he's not from our world. It's ridiculous to say he has little in season 2 when he is basically the heart of the mytharc surrounding season 2. Suppose the writers are just trying to cautiously build up his character. He may not seem important when the series began, now we know according to the Observers how important Peter is. Get rid of Peter and the whole Fringe show is practically dead!

Seriously! Peter has had so much to do in Season 2, it's just been subtle stuff. Like you said, I'd have agreed if we were still in Season 1, but Peter has come leaps and bounds since then. In fact, I used to think Peter was kind of an expendable character. Don't get me wrong, I liked him and would never want him to leave, but I could easily see the show without him. Now I can't. He's everybody's emotional anchor.

Yeah, not to mention the recent episodes have highlighted Olivia and Walter's need to have peter working with them...not to mention his blatant ties to the mythology...

I agree that this season has upped Peter in terms of storyline but maybe they are looking for Peter's "Bad dreams", "A new day in an old town", "Peter" , "Jacksonville" "White Tulip" "Inner Child" - type moments which gives Peter more depth which has given Walter and Olivia their depths.

So, I have much faith in Northwest Passage which hopefully will give Josh his own "Jacksonville" or "Peter" moment

You know, the episode that makes him stand out the same way Bad Dreams did for Olivia and The Equation did for Walter.

But yeah, Peter did a lot more this season but none that developed his character.
