So... sorry if this is a dumb question... but if the observers are from the future, why don't they know exactly what is going to happen? They knew the significance of Peter, Olivia, and Dr. Bishop, but it appears they did little or nothing about it during the invasion. Or is it back to the JJ Abrams 'infinite possible futures' thing?
The only thing that makes sense right now is if the Observers really do know what's going on and it's all a setup for a horribly dark ending. That goes against the "humans are so plucky we can overcome anything" cliche, so I doubt that's the answer and it's more likely we will get some weak excuse as to how the young, attractive people beat the old, ugly baldies in the end. Hopefully not as bad as Signs or Battleship.

I'm still watching every episode but am typically using my phone throughout (texting, Twitter, gamez, etc.). Doesn't do much in the engaging its audience department.

Yup.
I gotta ask again though, since the observers knew that Olivia, Peter, and Dr. Bishop were so important and had been monitoring them their whole lives, why didn't they kill them first?
It's as frustrating as the "We can't kill Fox Mulder or he would become a martyr to the cause" cop-out.
I didn't either, but it gives them a chance to parallel Peter Bishop reaching across Universes to save his child like Walter did. Hopefully that won't distract them from finding the horcruxes... err... video tapes
