While there’s still hope we may get a fifth season of Fringe, producers aren’t counting on it. Executive producer J.H. Wyman tells E! Online that the production team is working on several endings so they won’t leave fans of the show feeling unsatisfied.
“If this is the last season I would feel, obviously, incredibly sad because I know how much of the story that we have left to tell and that we would love to tell. But [we also want to] have an ending that would leave people feeling like, ‘Wow, I feel sad but satiated–that was definitely worth my four years of investment,'” he said. “That’s all we’re concerned about is to make sure that the fans don’t feel like, ‘Wait, what? What happened? I’ve invested four years of my life and I don’t get any kind of resolution that makes sense.'”
Though the creators obviously want to keep the show going for at least another year, Wyman said even the folks at Fox want to make sure the fan-favorite series gets a fitting conclusion.
“To be 100 percent frank, our partners at Fox would never want to consciously allow that to happen,” he said of an abrupt cancellation. “So everybody knows that Jeff and I are very prepared. We’re ready for anything. Hopefully we go on, but it’s out of our control.”
