Feature: Welcome to Fringe Division: Trying to Plug a Hole in the Universe

Fringe Division is set mainly in Dr. Walter Bishop’s Harvard lab, governed by the motto ‘a myth is just an unverified fact.’ Experimentations go beyond the normal boundaries of science into fringe science. Of particular interest are Dr. Bishops’ eccentricities, proportionate to his stratospheric IQ. As he; his son, Peter Bishop; and Agent Olivia Dunham unravel the mystery of The Pattern -- a set of often horrific experiments undertaken around the world -- this review will unravel the mystery of the show. Because let's face it: not everyone's IQ (or eccentricities) is as high as Walter Bishops'! We hope you will share your theories about questions raised here, and point out important things we might have missed. And, in true Walter-style, eccentricities are more than welcome.
