  3. - what books/movies/ etc did you look at to prepare yourself for the role of walter?

    - for you as an actor, what was your biggest challenge playing walter?

    - is every line (for example the "pancakes") written for you, or is some made up as you go along?

    - given blueberry pancakes and icecream, what would you prefer?

    -and what if we added chocolate into that equation?;)

  6. Where would you like to see the character Walter Bishop go in Season 2-not physically but emotionally,and/or intellectually?

    Do you like how the writers are handling the story arc for Walter&Peter(father&son)? Would you do anything differently if you were writing it?

    Would you like to see Walter meet up with Nina Sharp? And how do you think that should go?

    Do you think Walter Bishop would find Olivia Dunham to be a good mate for his son, Peter? Why or why not?

  8. Nothing to do with him or Walter, but does he know if Astrid will be getting a bigger part?

  9. Why haven't we heard Walter ask Astrid or Peter for some Butterscotch pudding..after all it was his favourite dessert back at St. Clare's. He must miss it a lot, (the pudding not the hospital)
