  And Dawson's Creek fans will love the opening paragraphs of this Zap2It interview with Joshua Jackson. They spoke with him on the set of Fringe. Here is an excerpt:

  "Season 3 so far has been the season of Olivia," says Jackson, who was working on Episode 5 at the time of the interview. "We have almost what amounts to two shows. We have the over there side, as they're dealing with their version of the Fringe incidents, and the over here side, where we're dealing with ours. I don't write the show, but I know there's inevitably going to be a crunch as we sort of figure out the Olivia question."
  
  Because of the focus on Olivia (Anna Torv) and her alternate, Jackson has found himself with a little bit more time on his hands. "I don't know if you've noticed, but I'm probably the last man smiling on set. It's Friday, I've got two hours of work today, so while I don't get the cool thing of playing two versions of my own character, I do get the even cooler thing of doing eight days of Fringe and eight days off."
  
  Though he's enjoyed spending time with girlfriend Diane Krueger -- and some of his high school buddies, since Vancouver is his hometown -- it doesn't mean Jackson hasn't put some thought into who Peter might have been in an alternate universe.
  
  "I'd like him to be a healthy upstanding citizen," Joshua jokes. "I think if we did the alternate Peter what would've been cool would've been to do the version where the illness sort of crippled him, and instead of being the guy who ran away outside, he would've run away inside. He would sort of be the boy in the bubble. But we'll never know!"
