The people that make Fringe really know how to make TV. Damn.

With any luck the sometimes-shabby ratings of this so smart sci-fi show will get a boost from "Bloodline," which airs Friday. This week's installment returns to the alternate universe, as the other Olivia—Remember her? Red hair, bangs, still played by Anna Torv?—is forced to confront the ultimate consequences of her little affair with Joshua Jackson's Peter Bishop. (Wear condoms, people!)

So how does that sex disrupt this universe? And which fan-fave altiverse characters are back in a big way? Here's what we can tell you about "Bloodline."

Welcome back, Fringe! Our fave freaky-deaky sci-fi series is back with an all-new episode this Friday, and to celebrate, we talked to guest star Alan Ruck about the floaty weird goings-on.

Floaty-what, you say? Oh, did we not mention that this episode features flying people? And who's Alan Ruck, you ask? He's Cameron from Ferris Bueller's Day Off, silly!

You love Cameron, we know you do, so read this now, willya?

One of the characters on Fringe has noticed that Peter (Joshua Jackson) and Olivia (Anna Torv) have been miserable without each other, so this character is stepping in (on behalf of all us fans?), and doing something about it.

Attention Fringe fans: The glyphs are not just B.S.! The glyphs are not just B.S.!

Tonight's episode of Fringe features what may be the show's biggest turn since Walter's flashback Peternapping, and right after the big reveal at the end of the hour, one of Fringe's famous glyph codes flashes on the screen. Suddenly, with your newfound knowledge about where the episode is going, in addition to being part of an alphabetic cipher, one of the show's iconic visuals is revealed to symbolize something damn significant to the show.

So without explicitly spoiling the shocker, here's what Fringe executive producers Jeff Pinkner and J.H. Wyman were willing to tease to us fans about tonight's "Immortality" episode, which is set in Fauxlivia's world Over There:

Are there any Olivia-Peter die-hards out there? If yes, you can probably take some comfort in these words about Olivia (Anna Torv) from the great Lance Reddick himself, when we double-checked that Broyles and Olivia are sticking to a familial-platonic relationship: "Peter's (Joshua Jackson) got that locked up." (Ha!) What else happens in the second half of the season? Jasika Nicole and Reddick reveal:

OK, Fringe fans, this photo of John Noble and Christopher Lloyd is an exclusive scene shot from tomorrow's all-new episode of the show. (Maybe you've heard? Fringe is moving to Fridays?) The still is taken from "The Firefly," which guest stars Lloyd as one of Walter's musical idols. Let your imaginations run wild, and post your funny captions for this photo in the comments!

Fox's cult-hit series Fringe returns with all-new episodes in exactly two weeks, and the show is not exactly skimping on major mythological moments in the first hour back.

In Fringe's war between "Over Here" and "Over There," the hammer of the gods that will make the difference between winning and losing is probably Walternate's Peter machine. So when will the machine be deployed, and what is the heck is it designed to do, anyway? We just asked Jeff Pinkner and Joel Wyman, the bosses behind Fox's cult-hit Fringe, about the machine, the taxi driver and the show's mama drama.

Get the exclusive answers right now in Part Two of our Fringe scoopapalooza:

Shapeshifters, doppelgängers and evil twins, oh my! Fox's wicked smart sci-fi series Fringe is back with all-new episodes this Thursday, and us fans are dying to know if our boy Peter will realize that his girl's sort of a replicant, if Walter will be able to defeat Walternate's diabolical plan, and whether or not good Olivia can escape her mental prison "over there."

To find out the answers to these and other burning fan Q's, we took your Twitter queries straight to show runners Jeff Pinkner and Jeff Wyman, and here's what they revealed about what's going on "over here":

As far as we've always known, Fringe's Walternate is an evil genius, and original-flavor Walter is a big ol' softy. But what if that's not really the case? We just caught up with the incomparable John Noble and chatted about tonight's season-three premiere, why Walternate is actually "good" (whaaa?!)—and while we were at it, we kinda wrote the plot for season four together:
