It’s always great when members of a production tweet during an episode, especially if they’re willing to answer a few questions. Last Friday, during the west coast broadcast of Fringe, Jeff Pinkner (@jeffpinkner) and Joel Wyman (@JWFRINGE) did just that with “#FringeLiveTweet” as the hashtag. Of course there were some technical difficulties including Twitter being inordinately slow, but it was still great. Here are some of the most intriguing questions and answers:

@JWFRINGE#FringeLiveTweet Will we find out who wrote the blueprint of the future the Observers follow?in reply to ↑
@jeffpinkner@hemo_jr The Observers don’t have a blueprint – they EXIST in all possible timelines simultaneously, thus they can (in effect) see all possible futures. (“That BOOM — that’s my mind exploding”)
