Purchase Intention:

For this purpose recruited the FBI agent Olivia Dunham the fleeing located Peter Bishop, which his father intended to assist, so that he, after 17 years in the sanatorium a caregiver hat.Fortan try the cases which are to settle in the border areas of science edit and realize more and more connections to Walters past.

Development of the series:
Initially, the series can be seen clearly as Mysterieserie a la The X-Files, which cares about the mysterious case of the week. Relatively quickly, however, come more and more science fiction elements to which later increasingly important gewinnen.Im Unlike Lost (same maker) was here, however, is trying to answer questions as well and this is achieved quite well. At the end of a season, most issues have been resolved that have emerged in the relay. This is also to do with the fact that the series itself was never sure whether there will be another season, and only because of the loyal fans (which includes the station chief was one) to 100 episodes come.

Genre:
Mysteriedrama with science fiction elements

The characters:
- Dr. Walter Bishop
was in the 70s a scientist who went beyond the borders and exploring things like teleportation and telekinesis. He put all the success with and experimented with a variety of substances, including drugs. Today, however, it is very scattered and in its way almost childlike. His son Peter means everything to him.

- Special Agent Olivia Dunham

- Peter Bishop
has the high school canceled and has traveled the world. Here he made his way on his way with his high intelligence (IQ of 190) and never spent more than 2 months in a job. Olivia can feel him on in Iraq and asks for his help, which he does reluctantly because he wanted to have no contact with his father more.

Starring:
John Noble / Dr. Walter Bishop (also known from the Lord of the Rings)
here offers superior performance. When you see him in flashbacks as the characters of the old broken scientist and the boy is hungry for success scientist creates is hard to believe that this is one and the same character. One wonders why this actor was not known much earlier

Anna Torv / Olivia Dunham
plays in her first major role very convincingly and you may be wondering what you will get from it can be seen in the coming years

Joshua Jackson / Peter Bishop (also known from Mighty Ducks 1-3, Dawson's Creek)
is the most famous actor of the series, since it has already celebrated great success in the 90s. Here he can finally put his image and take off as a serious actor. Despite the notoriety he is the weak point in the 3 main characters.

Image and sound:
Sound and image are on the DVD looks acceptable but you make a huge difference to the Blurays that one should prefer.

Similarly series:
- The X-Files
- Under the Dome
- Lost
- Eureka
- Outer Limits

Season number:
5 with 100 episodes

Planned and round end ?:
The series has received a final 5th season after but in the 4th most questions have already been answered. Therefore, a large arch was made to many smaller issues still to beantworten.Heute to recommend here again? Definitely. The issues today are almost more recent than a few years ago.

Interesting:
- The consequences of the first season have 50 minutes, because this was an attempt by Fox to finance the longer airtime with higher advertising rates. The experiment failed and from the 2nd season there were again 42 minutes per episode
- In the series of so-called a glyph code is installed. In each episode pictures are shown on a black background (eg two fetuses in an apple). The pictures always came just before the advertising insets. Each of these images represents a letter and end results from these individual images a word, which refers to the sequence bezieht- In the first season was even filmed in New York. From the 2nd season but we turned in Vancouver because of cheaper production costs.
- ProSieben made advertisement for the series by sending fake messages from cases from the series in the style of the evening news. To this end, there was much criticism because it was not recognizable as a trailer and ProSieben had to pay a penalty.
- The twins from the first episode of the third season are really twins and not 2 times the same well-known actors (Shawn (Ice Men from X-Men) and Aaron Ashmore (Smallville))
- The German Diana Kruger has a cameo in the second season, as it is the partner of Joshua Jackson.
- Agent John Scott (Mark Valley) plays the partners and spouses of Olivia. The actors were also married at that time but later parted.

In short:
The high expectations could the series never be accessible but the series is one of the best mystery / science fiction series of recent years.
