#TBT. This is the alternate look for the Chief in the flashback scene for 4×11: Sometimes a Great Notion. In the episode they kept the glasses and got rid of the wig. In the S4 blooper reel they show the market place scene filmed with Aaron wearing the wig and an Elton John song playing (I think it was ‘Rocket Man’) 😂
For anyone that needs a reminder, this is how the Chief looked in the episode. I’ll have to ask him why they ditched the wig. Maybe they didn’t want us all laughing during that scene 😉
Reply from Aaron when I sent him the photo.
Oh man! Look at that hair! I remember them saying they needed a flashback look & someone said “do a wig & glasses”. So we shopped for glasses & hair made this wig. They put it on me & I went to set to show the look to producers & there were quiet but obvious snickers from the crew. Then someone said “it looks like the new Bon Jovi haircut”. Then one of the big wigs (see what I did there?) said “lose the wig”. Then I walked back to my trailer to the sounds of camera guys singing “oooohhh you’re halfway there… oh, OH! Living on a prayer!”
