PrimeWire

I was a huge fan of this back when it was airing and watched it a couple times more all the way through, so heres a tidbit for both sides.

FRINGE was an awesome show but not enough people were watching or thats what FOX thought. It was a huge shame back then but the big reveal was that tons people were watching it online through 3rd party sources like these.. (Fringe died bc of the dawn of the streaming age) BUT FOX loved them so much and enough fans made their presence known that they found out before season 3 ended, that they would only get 2 seasons to wrap up the story and NOT 5 more (I think it was.)

So this particular part is where my memory fails me but they planned to get close to 10 seasons (idr) like X-files but only got around half that, so while I agree the last 2 seasons were crazier and more out there (and not in the best of ways) I also understand why and it helped me to stick with it and enjoy its last days. Still if I remember, it was mostly satisfying, and not to set the bar low but at least they got to finish in some way and not just as dead end cancellation.

That being said I have similar ideas about the show The Magicians (huge reccommend) and that it should have ended with Season 4 if they aren’t going to get way more bc Season 5 seemed more of like a setup to more seasons rather than pushing anything forward, so if you give that a try, trust me and stop at S4 until we get confirmation on S6 :P
