They were always working inside an overall plan, but now that plan is very specific and detailed.

I'm gonna put all that on the shoulders of my man, Brian K. Vaughn. He's written some great comic series, most notably "Y:The Last Man" and "Ex Machina." Not only are they interesting to read, but they have a story arc, both a beginning and an END. Y just wrapped up and Machina is going to soon (both of which make me very sad).
Anyway, the show seemed to be floundering a bit until they hired him. Then within a month or two, they announced how the next few seasons would be set up and that there would be a ending date... something which I don't think they had ever mentioned before.
Ok, it's probably not all his idea, but he's a great writer and I'd imagine he had something to do with all the awesomeness we're seeing now.
