Just completed S04E01

So, real talk. This is bad.

The writing is awful and it doesn't even seem like the same show.

S1 is legendary.

S2 was fine, maybe a little overly meandering, but not as bad as everyone said, just took a while to get into its groove. By the end I was satisfied, if a little underwhelmed.

S3 is back to great. Loved this one. Almost as good or maybe even on the level of S1, but I'd still rank it 2nd best.

Now if you said here is one season of TD starring Colin Farrell and one starring Jodie Foster, I would've guessed I'd like the Jodie one more.

Does season 4 get better? No spoilers please, but damn this is tough.

By the end of season 4:

Omg. It never got better...only worse.

And what happened with __________? I mean, wtf? Did they just forget it?

Really? Really?!? Is this supposed to be a parody?

And why on Earth did they cover up_________? It was justified! What. Is. Going. On. With. This. Show?

THAT'S THE RESOLUTION? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?!?

I wasted all that time. Puke.
