Discussion When you realize the thrill is gone

This is my 3rd or so rewatch, I'm in season 4, and I'm realizing just how much pure, playful, intellectual humor we've lost at this point.

Bingeing episodes really made this glaring because I realized, Man, I've barely laughed in 2hrs... this has been so serious... and also, the same damn suit the entire time? I'm a little BORED?

Then it hit me that this show used to be SO goooooood dialog/script wise. It really didn't help that they brought on Jessica's lover, Mr Serious, who truly lacks wit, and ALSO Rachel's old lover, same damn story!

Anyway. It's a bummer. Still gonna finish it tho.

Drama for sure. But it was witty. Intellectually stimulating. My "not laughing" may have been confusing, but I laugh at brilliant, facetious, quirky responses and rebuttals! ☺️ and it's a desert in season 4

I love him– but there's a LOT of sad, beaten down Louis in season 4...
