I love this show so much. Olivia is so damn tough.
I agree that John Noble is the best actor in the show, but he sets a very high bar and there's a lot of room for excellent performances right under it. Olivia/Alt!livia's subtle differences are really amazing, and the show needs more Broyles. Apparently Jasika Nicole's sister is autistic, so she's using her observations of her sister to play an alternative Astrid - the way she doesn't look at people, sticks to her routines and gets anxious when broken out of them.
