The panel for Fringe just ended, and in it was some nice news for anyone who were psyched to see Leonard Nimoy appear last season as the elusive William Bell. The producers of the show told the gathered critics that Nimoy has already shot one episode for the second season and that they will want to have him on the show "as much as he wants."EPs Jeff Pinkner and J.H. Wyman, along with co-creators Roberto Orici and Alex Kurtzman, even talked about a day of shooting in a super-hot Vancouver soundstage, where Nimoy acted like a pro. "He never went back to his trailer, and shot pages of dialogue." So it seems like they like having him around the set.
The show will take place mostly in the present universe, but there will be some events that happen in the parallel universe introduced last year ( "over there," as the producers put it). Events "over there" will affect events in the present universe, as well.
More on the panel later.

Ok, thanks. Doesn't mean I'm deleting the post, though.

Oh, no, lol. I just didn't know if it was presented as a TCA exclusive announcement or the first time the producers are saying it, cause it's definitely not. :)

Heh. Yeah, I steer clear from saying things from TCA are exclusives because who knows who else they said these things to? There are 200 reporters here and all those press/fans at Comic-con.

Where is Mark Valley , he starts shows and always off when you start liking the Show, Like Keen Eddie.
Keen Eddie should never have been taken off
Does anyone else feel that way?
