In the end I think its end was fitting to the show - true and respectful to the characters, utter nonsense from a scifi/plot perspective.
hahahaha, this is SUCH a perfect summation of Fringe in just one sentence. XDDD
Fringe has some of the absolute WORST scifi on TV, it really does. And yet, I love the characters so much that I'm willing to forgive just about anything.
I was thinking recently about the show reinventing itself every season ... well, actually I was thinking about how it somehow went from an episodic case-of-the-week show in season one, to an apocalypse in season five, and somehow this worked for me, whereas I hated it when SPN did it and never stopped wanting the show to get back to what it used to be in the first season. But with Fringe, it somehow worked, even though, as you said, every season they did something completely different.
