Olivia Dunham's new girlfriend has been announced!

Meghan Markle Joins Fringe



She's ... not exactly what I was hoping for expecting, but if she makes eye-sexies with Anna Torv on screen I will forgive a lot.  Anyways, physically Anna's polar opposite, so writing femslash for them should be pretty easy ;)

I still prefer Rachel, and Nina ... and the stripper for that matter, though.

She's going to be a junior FBI agent but they already have that in Astrid. Would have been more interesting if she were a snooping reporter or the daughter of William Bell.

Yeah, I don't know about this 'junior agent' thing. Like you said, there's already Astro (oh, Walter) who I love. And Olivia is the bees knees, but is really young as well, and I'm like 'doesn't the F.B.I. have any adults working there?'

I really like the snooping reporter idea, daughter of William Bell could be interesting (but I think it would take screen time away from Nina which would suck), or even like conspiracy nut or something would be better than throwing another junior agent into the mix.

The freckles differently don't hurt, lol. I was just anticipating someone a bit older I think, so seeing her picture kind of threw me. I was like Olivia already looks twelve, is the F.B.I recruiting straight out of High School now?

looks totally different in the last photo wtf.

'Different' is a nice way of putting it ;) But yeah, I definitely hope they don't take any styling tips from THAT shoot.

That last photo you picked lol...she looks like a mexican singer that I don't like that much. But yeah, I can help but feel a liiiitle disappointed but well, she isn't that bad. We'll see.

...and the stripper for that matter, though.

EXACTLY

Yeah, we'll see. Maybe she'll be brilliant on screen. I was just expecting someone a bit older, with a bit more gravitas. Like a Leslie Bibb type or something. Young, but with presence. The picture of this chick kind of strongly underwhelm me.

[personal profile] novak_fan 2009-06-30 11:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Ooooo Leslie Bibb...so many possibilities there.
All in all I can't wait for my weekly Dunham fix though. I think that Fringe it's one of the few shows that I can take without really have a fav ship...just staring at Anna Torv for one hour make me happy lol Not even Leighton Meester can make that for me.

I really like the first pick, the second is great too, and the last does nothing for me. As for what role she'll be fulfilling, I'll wait and see. Hopefully, she's more than just a pretty face, but I don't see any archetype she could be playing that isn't already part of/useless to Fringe. Fingers crossed, because I fluv Fringe :).

Oh, and before I forget about this...

"Anyways, physically Anna's polar opposite, so writing femslash for them should be pretty easy ;)"

YES!! Fembuck Fringe Femslash Ficcing For the Fucking Win! (Sorry if I seem a little hyper, I'm a long time lurker and fan, but a first time poster. Anyway, never EVER stop writing, or else... I'll cry.)

but I don't see any archetype she could be playing that isn't already part of/useless to Fringe.,/i>

This is my worry as well. It's like, the femslasher in me loves the idea of another female on the scene who is NOT related to Olivia, but at the same time I'm like 'why do they really need her on the show?'. I'll wait and see until she's actually on screen though to decide whether she's a waste of space or not.

nyway, never EVER stop writing, or else... I'll cry.

lol, don't worry I think I'll be at it for a while yet :)

yeah, i 'hear' what you're sayin' on the pic. hopefully what there's lacking in... 'something' it'll be made up for in chemistry btw Torv & "the new girl." however, it should be noted that she has VERY kissable lips!

[identity profile] fembuck.livejournal.com 2009-06-30 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, there's no 'it' factor shining through in those pictures. Though, she might be one of those actors/actresses that lights up on screen but is underwhelming in pictures, so I'll reserve judgment.

Also, the kissable works definitely work in her favor!

[identity profile] madndizzee.livejournal.com 2009-06-25 08:36 am (UTC)(link)
hmm i shall wait and see how she does with Olivia. wish she was a little older looking.

[identity profile] fembuck.livejournal.com 2009-06-30 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm right there with you. I was definitely expecting someone older. Like I'm not saying they needed someone in their 40s or anything, but I was expecting someone older, like a Leslie Bibb type or something. The pictures of this chick just really underwhelm me. But, she could blow me away when I see her on screen so I'll reserve judgment. Pictures of people have led me astray before, lol (ex. When I actually saw the actress they hired for Narcissa Malfoy act, I was really impressed with her. Visually, she's not a perfect match, but the woman is pretty badass which is wonderful for Narcissa).

I mean who's ever going to say "No that stripper match up didn't work for me." The stripper works for everyone. But yeah I'm very interesting in seeing how this match up goes.

lol, very true.

But yeah I'm very interesting in seeing how this match up goes.

Most definitely. I'm a little underwhelmed by the actress now, but who knows how things will be on screen, so I'm curiously waiting to see how it all plays out.

All I can think of is to wonder wheter those are fake or not. They look really fake in that third picture.

I mean who's ever going to say "No that stripper match up didn't work for me." The stripper works for everyone.

FWIW, I think Anna Torv works for everyone. She just seems to blaze in every girl-girl relationship.

Yeah. She looks like she's entirely made out of plastic in that third picture though, so maybe the breasts are just looking fake because of the spray on tan.

I think Anna Torv works for everyone. She just seems to blaze in every girl-girl relationship.

True dat. Anna Torv is very charismatic on screen, and she has amazing chemistry with other female actresses. She's like an Eliza Dushku/Angie Harmon that way. Where she just seems extra charming around other chicks. I love her for it. Never change Anna, never change.

I.. uh, I don't know what to think. Other than this is like finding out Chris Carter cast one of the Price Is Right ladies for a guest role on the X-Files.

and the stripper for that matter, though.

Well, the stripper *did* give Olivia a blowjob. So, it's kinda hard to top that although I'm totally Team!Topping Olivia!

lol. This really is what it's like. I feel like she should be hosting a reality TV show, not working with Special Agent Sexy solving crime. *le sigh*

Yeah, giving Olivia a blow job kind of is the pinnacle of awesome. This chicks gonna have a very talented mouth to compete against. Let's just hope that she's up to the job. Because Special Agent Sexy needs her BJs goddammit! She's got needs, and she's fucking saving the world on a weekly basis so just drop to your knees and worship okay!

I think I'll attempt to withhold judgment until I see how she does within the story. But I tell ya, if she starts makin' moves on Olivia... Nina (should) (better) will be there to fuck her up. (I think I just totally went into the gutter. Yes. Yes, I think I did. Blair Brown does that to me.)

I get that Nina is supposed to be this distinguished older lady who never dirties her hands, but she is a fucking Bionic Woman. She's *got* to have moves! And now I'm thinking of Katee Sackhoff. *OhKatee!squee!orgasm*

BUT, back to the subject. I really hope this chick rocks... and distracts Peter from Olivia. And Rachel. I find him skeevey and douchey and I'll give her a high five for taking one for the team.

Me too. I'll give her a chance, when I see her on screen she might blow me away. I doubt it, but it could happen ;)

And now I'm thinking of Katee Sackhoff. *OhKatee!squee!orgasm*

lol, that's okay, perfectly reasonable response to thinking about Katee.

I really hope this chick rocks... and distracts Peter from Olivia. And Rachel. I find him skeevey and douchey and I'll give her a high five for taking one for the team.

lol. By 'distracts Peter from Olivia' you mean, distracts Peter from Olivia by going down on Olivia in the back room where Peter walks in on them and then runs away in heartbreak right? Because I don't feel like inflicting Peter on any female, let alone who would could have the potential to be sexin' Special Agent Sexy.

Oh.... you just had to make such a *good* mental image there, didn't you? Almost threw me completely off whatever I was thinking. I don't know if you realized what you just did, but now I'm rooting for a woman who I don't know. I don't know how you do that, making unknown pairings (unknown to me, anyways) sound *so good*.

Because I don't feel like inflicting Peter on any female, let alone who would could have the potential to be sexin' Special Agent Sexy.

Good point. That would be just plain cruel. I was so wound up in possible Olivia/Nina or Olivia/Rachel that I lost my common sense. But methinks that Astrid needs a friend. She has been slaving thanklessly for a whole season. And she deserves more of a character arc.

(I just re-read my previous comment and apologize for the bumbling rambly-ness of it. I attempted to keep this comment more to the point, but I ramble *all the time*, so it's like fighting my very nature. Regardless, *sigh* I apologize.)
