    7/10
    I dont know what to think
    9 episodes into the serie and I know if I Like it or not. I'm investe into the main story ( Olivia vision about John, or is It visions ? Peter dark secrets / William Bell and the project) all this is kinda interesting stuff. BUT the every week story are not good at all, Bad Sci fi, i dont like that everything in this show Can be explain by some scientific answer. The Sci fi part in every episodes is badly display, the event are either not believable or just stupid. The X files really know how to use Paranormal into a case, Fringe did not as for now. I Hope the standalone will get better soon, because this show is only save by his main stories " The Dreamscape" 7/10.
