Welcome to my massive girl crush on Anna Torv – nogoodforme.com

Being a big sci-fi nerd, I was a sporadic watcher of Fringe — because how could I resist a show about warring parallel worlds, an intelligent, super-capable but emotionally complicated lady FBI agent working for a covert division, and PACEY FROM “DAWSON’S CREEK”!!! I wasn’t too drawn in right away, but I kept dropping in because I thought Anna Torv was such a great, subtle actress who bore a bit of a resemblance to Cate Blanchett, playing a character that took a page out of the Agent Scully playbook but with a bit more melancholic edge. But man, something happened at the end of last season and the show has gotten so freakin’ good, like it finally found its footing. I had always thought Anna Torv as Agent Olivia Dunham was good, but my girl crush on her didn’t really activate till she discovered her doppelganger in “Fringe”‘s parallel world, who (bear with me) managed to switch places with “our” Olivia Dunham, trapping her in the parallel universe while taking her place and wreaking havoc in our world. As Alt-Olivia, Anna has a certain swagger and cockiness, not to mention red hair and a penchant for cool leather jackets that would make Cayce Pollard proud. That with her husky voice and DAMN SHE IS SO HOT. Go watch “Fringe”! Lots of action and smartness! AND PACEY FROM “DAWSON’S CREEK”!!
