Why did season five of Fringe suck so bad?

Conchaga

Let's fuck some shit up
Just watched the last episode yesterday.

The writers really dialed that last season in.

Writers: "Hey JJ, how many scifi stories do you think we can rob of their material and get away with it?"

JJ: "Oh, I dunno... Let's take Dark City, The Golden Child, The Matrix, Bladerunner, Doctor Who, Alice in Wonderland, Star Wars, and Star Trek (TOS and TNG) for starters. Then, we'll go back and rape literature from Verne, Asimov, and especially H. G. Wells. Take all of those and cram them into 13 really unsatisfyingly short episodes that don't explain enough and make the viewer suspend belief of all things rational."

Writers: "OMG JJ U R DA BESTEST SCIFI PRODUCER EVER CAN WE OMNOM ON YOUR PEENOR NOW!?"

Seriously... fuck that season.
