WALTER BISHOP - JUST BEING SILLY TO "LOVE AND HAPPINESS" BY AL GREEN

 Fringe is one of my favorite speculative fiction series on TV. It is a thoughtful, fully self-consistent science fiction/mystery/conspiracy TV shows, and features an exceptional ensemble of actors portraying an intriguing cast of characters: John Noble (Walter Bishop), Joshua Jackson (Peter Bishop), Anna Torv (Olivia Dunham), Lance Riddick (Philip Broyles), and Jasika Nicole (Astrid Farnham), and others too-many-to-be-named.

Far away, the most fascinating character and the character with the widest range to play with is Walter. Here he is being silly and dancing to an Al Green's "Love and Happiness" to calm down the mystery child before putting the device on to his head to read his thoughts. The episode is "Inner Child" S1 E15. Made this mid-level hit so memorable for me that it is now one of my favorite tunes from Al Green's Greatest Hits. Enjoy!
