Time for our next-to-last "Fringevideo interview from Comic-Con, this time featuring the show's newest regular castmember, Seth Gabel.

Gabel and I talk about the strange life of a TV show guest star (even one who begins to appear semi-regularly), about the point at which he realized he might get to stick around a while, about the hassle of wearing Lincoln Lee's burn make-up, about the first time he played the Lincoln of "our" universe, and about the way that alt-Lincoln has to function as kind of the Peter Bishop of those episodes set Over There.

One more of these to go, with the marvelous native accents of John Noble and Anna Torv, and then tomorrow (barring something strange), we go into the "Doctor Who" videos I did at the Con.
