As we have previously reported, Fox’s “Fringe” will get musical on April 29th. Here’s the first look at this musical episode within Walter Bishop’s (John Noble) head. Why is there song and dance in Walter’s head? Executive producer Jeff Pinkner explains:
“We didn’t set out to do a musical. We set out to do an episode that explored Walter’s state of mind — he’s dealing with some very upsetting news. When we realized that the way Walter would deal with such news would be to try to anesthetize himself with copious amounts of marijuana, well, singing and dancing became a natural outcome.”
In this pic from the episode entitled “Overture”, Olivia (Anna Torv) is dressed in a retro-style P.I. outfit. Pinkner teases: “It’ll be interesting to see how Walter really perceives her.”
