JJ Abrams: Fringe could end like Lost
 

Fringe creator JJ Abrams has revealed that the show could end after six years just like his other hit drama Lost.

He told Slice of Sci Fi: “Just as with Lost, we didn’t get to a place until the third season where we were saying, ‘OK, we need to know where halfway is'.

"I feel like that’s something that, if we’re lucky enough to continue going, I do think that at a certain point it would be a really smart thing to start to say, ‘OK, let’s figure out what the actual date is so we sort of know how far we should push things.’”

He added: "I feel like we have a long way to go still, but I think that the show has sort of found a kind of rhythm that is nice to see, and I’m really proud of what we’re doing with it.”

And the writer revealed that Leonard Nimoy could return to Fringe as William Bell, explaining: "Without saying either way, I think there’s a chance he’ll be back.”
