Interview with Jasika Nicole

wobbledygook:

Insider: When I talked to Josh Jackson a few weeks ago, he remarked that Peter should become an Observer at the end of the series. What do you think Astrid’s endgame should be?
Jasika: Whoa! I’m still reeling from the Peter thing. That’s cool and it totally makes sense. Oh man. I love that. OK, focus — Astrid’s endgame. OK, I have no idea if this could ever happen but I think there’s a real possibility that the Astrid’s would live together. Like, one of them would permanently move to the other side. You’ll understand that better after tonight’s episode, but because of what the alternate Astrid ends up going through in her home world, there’s a real potential for her to be forever drawn to this Astrid so I could see her deciding that they are family now.

Insider: I feel like that’s the pitch for a half-hour sitcom!
Jasika: What’s funny is we actually have created a 30 minute sitcom called Farnsworth P.I. – the idea was created by this guy Ari Margolis and his idea is that Astrid gets caught in a timeloop because one of Walter’s experiments goes awry, so she keeps flashing to different decades. It’s kind of like Quantum Leap – so to keep herself afloat, she’s become a private investigator. So she’s in this huge afro and white leather knee-high boots in the 70s and got a gun. She’s trying to get back to her original timeline, but she keeps getting thrown around history. I definitely think there’s a sitcom out there for Astrid.
