The fact that Astrid was a trained FBI agent did sort of come to the fore in that episode where she got shot. And a few other times as well.

Luckily it did as even some of the more dedicated viewers seemed to forget that although later on it became more about the stuff they went through together rather than their form of employment

If all you ever saw were the first few episodes, you would pretty much take Astrid for a low-level flunky - almost an intern. But it became obvious that she was not only a trained FBI agent, but also a scientist in her own right.

[Ropetuned]

Yeah she definitely was

The character that is the proverbial glue that holds the whole machine together always seems to go unnoticed, sadly. She is more important than anyone else, one could argue.

She was an important part of the team for sure.

I'd watch every episode repeatedly if they had a Walter/Astrid spinoff

[FoxPhile]

Oh my gosh! That would be awesome.

[@l3jandra]

We need that!

I miss our favorite 3 some in the lab

[@l3jandra]

I might watch some episodes today

[Barstool Prophet]

Sounds good.
