We'll see Peter's mom again in the two-part season finale, aka "Over There" parts one and two. [EW]

Apparently the musical episode is now called "Brown Betty," and here's the official description from Fox:

While Walter (John Noble) deals with some upsetting news, he tells Olivia's niece, Ella (guest star Lily Pilblad), a fairy tale that includes musical performances by Olivia (Anna Torv) and Agent Broyles (Lance Reddick).

And here are a couple of natty-looking stills from the episode. [spoilerTV]

On April 29, Fox?s just-renewed Fringe will take a page from Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Scrubs by staging a musical inside inside the mind of mad scientist Walter.

?We didn?t set out to do a musical,? maintains executive producer Jeff Pinkner. ?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.?

Anna Torv?s Olivia ? who adopts a retro private-eye persona (see above) ? plays a central role in Walter?s drug-induced fairy tale. Teases Pinkner: ?It?ll be interesting to see how Walter really perceives her.?

<br />Every episode is good <img src='https://cdn.neowin.com/forum/uploads/style_emoticons/default/thumbs_up.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='(Y)' /><br />

I guess you are right in a way. All episodes of Fringe are entertaining. But, obviously the ones directly related to the mythology are more so.

yeah but then the season would last just 6 odd episodes which would be pointless, filler episodes as they are called are good and 9 times out of 10 entertaining for this series.

    • Google Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer is leaving for OpenAI by Pradeep Viswanathan Noam Shazeer is best known as one of the co-authors of the 2017 “Attention Is All You Need” paper, which introduced the Transformer architecture that now powers most large language models. He also worked on several major Google AI projects, including LaMDA, before leaving the company in 2021 to co-found Character.AI. He also authored the Sparsely-gated Mixture of Experts (2016) paper, which is popular among the AI community. After falling behind OpenAI and Anthropic a couple of years ago, Google brought Shazeer back in 2024 as part of a major deal with Character.AI. Through this deal, along with Noam, several other researchers returned to Google DeepMind. More recently, he was a vice president of engineering at Google and a technical co-lead for Gemini. Today, Noam Shazeer announced on X that he is leaving Google and joining OpenAI. In his post, Shazeer said it was a difficult decision to move on, adding that he was proud of the Google team and what it had built together. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman welcomed the move with a post of his own, saying Shazeer was one of the people he had most wanted to work with since OpenAI’s early days. Google has made strong progress with Gemini over the past year, closing the gap with OpenAI in several areas. But losing Noam Shazeer is a major talent setback for them, especially after bringing him back less than two years ago by spending a fortune. For OpenAI, the hire adds one of the industry’s most experienced language model researchers to a team that is already pushing ahead with ChatGPT, Codex, and its next generation of frontier models.
