Yep, producers are finally giving Walter’s tireless lab assistant (played by the underrated Jasika Nicole) an episode all her own, and word is the long-anticipated hour is out of this freakin’ world.
“I cried like five times when I was reading the script,” confesses an emotional Nicole in the following behind the scenes video. “It would be easy for the writers to say, ‘Oh, there’s an Astrid episode; she solves a case.’ But it’s not that simple. It’s a really lovely story about Astrid [and alt-Astrid] meeting each other.”
Nicole’s onscreen boss, John Noble, takes it a step further, heralding the episode “possibly the season’s highlight” and Nicole’s dual performance nothing short of “breathtaking.” (Nicole has said that she takes some cues in playing Alt-Astrid from her sister who lives with Autism.)
Yay! (via jessica-messica)
THIS IS A THING THAT IS HAPPENING ABOUT WHICH I AM EXTREMELY EXCITED BECAUSE ASTRID IS NEVER GIVEN ENOUGH TO DO, RIGHT FROM THE BEGINNING.

I REFUSE TO STOP POSTING ABOUT THIS. I just need you all to know that tomorrow night, I am going to be an emotional wreck. I am warning you in advance, Tumblr. I may turn to you for comfort.

I WILL BE RIGHT THERE WITH YOU.

I love Fringe so much but one of its flaws has always been the short shrift that Astrid has gotten; she’s an interesting...
