Every Rewrite Leads to More Rewrites (Fringe Meta)

Rewatching "Over There" makes me wonder, how many times can you say Fringe rebooted? Massive spoilers right through the series finale. )

There were a bunch of interesting and sometimes gutsy storytelling decisions, as the show experimented with sticking to the story the showrunners wanted to tell against adapting to unexpected weaknesses - and strengths - uncovered during the evolution of Fringe. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't. But clearly I care enough to poke at the multiseason structure for about 1500 words - without even getting into All The Olivia Feelings! - so it did something right, reboots and course changes and all.
