Fringe Season 3 Episodes
Season 3 Episode Guide
22 Episodes 2010 - 2011
The two-universe paradigm is the star of the 3rd season of Fringe, which finds protagonists Olivia Dunham (Anna Torv) and her doppelganger coexisting uncomfortably, while "Walternate" (John Noble in the role of Peter's true father) continues with his plans to destroy the prime universe. Peter (Joshua Jackson), however, is the one with the most power, as he has no doppelganger, enough knowledge to operate the "doomsday machine", and the belief that both universes may be able to exist without destroying one another.
