The swapping of traditional roles for Peter and Olivia is pretty much my favorite thing about Fringe. He's the grounded support; she's the stoic lead. IT IS AWESOME!
And since Olivia is my favorite by far, I appreciate that she gets to be damaged, yet not broken. She gets to have a good relationship with her sister and niece. Her instincts are generally right, and have helped change things for the better. She's hurt by how things went with Agent Scott, but she hasn't declared "no more romance" because of it.
I don't want to spoil you, but I will say that so far, there might have been some more Peter-centric episodes, but Olivia is still very much the center of the show as of what's been shown. That just hasn't changed from the beginning, which I love. (Although I'd really like Astrid getting an episode or two.)
Yay! And I agree that I'd like to see Astrid get more to do than be Walter's other caretaker/Girl Friday.
