It was the first show that I can remember that was able to survive major shifts in the way the story was told.

Dude, fellow Fringe nut right here. Season's 4 not-reboot is when I started to... not care that much. I still love the show, but it went a little too much into its own lore, and got convoluted. Yet season 5 was not that bad, since they realized they dodged the cancellation bullet one last time, the show-runners got to work and tied everything with a nice bow. No loose ends, and satisfying ending for almost all characters. Still unconvinced about the whole "Watchers as the Bad Guys" mumbo jumbo, but in the end the show focused on the main characters and, in my opinion, it delivered.
