JOHN NOBLE: NEW FRINGE EPISODES WILL BRING REVELATIONS

Fringe has been away on a brief break, and its Winter finale ended on a cliffhanger that made the break feel far too long for Fringe addicts. But fear not, Fringeaholics new episodes are coming soon! The first new episode arrives on Thursday, April 1, and it takes us back to 1985, where we meet a younger, pre-institutionalized Dr. Walter Bishop and go back to the very origins of the Fringe mythology. In our exclusive interview with John Noble, he talks about the episode and the types of revelations we can expect to see. We also talk about how Walters progressed this season, the challenges of playing such a peculiar character, and maybe even a little hint of things to come as Fringe moves toward its second season finale. The Fringe Spring premiere is Thursday, April 1 at 9/8c on Fox.

Also, note that Noble calls Peter episode 215. Just sayin...
