Fringe: The Day We Died (2011)
Season 3, Episode 22
10/10
IMDb Special Rating Exemption #Ry8y986668

Good news.

After a series of protracted emails, I was able to get the IMDb Special Rating Exemption Permit as above, to issue this one-of-a kind episode a rating of 25 (instead of 10, which is usually the highest).

Also for clarity I am binge-watching the whole series in 2016 which in a way makes me as guilty of playing with the fabric of time as the characters in this show.

Quick review -- I have done my fair share of reviews, I think 1100 or so, and I have watched a lot of TV and films but I have never seen a time paradox handled so well and I have never seen such vivid portrayals of characters in an alternate timeline.

And frankly I have never seen the longer time arc of the serial TV series so beautifully used to build drama. Makes BSG look like a walk in the park. Makes the Star Trek Voyageur time paradoxes look like Romper Room.

Best work JJ ever did.
