On The Road Chief 02-20-2024 03:18 PM

To this day I adore the first season but after the second I tapped out. I heard the third rebounded nicely but the fourth is mixed to out and out bad?

First season is untouchable. I thought the third season was well done, albeit somewhat slow at times. But the acting and characters were great and I'd say it's more than worth the watch. It's not in the same ballpark as the first but it's still quite good IMO.

I personally couldn't make it through the second season. Gave up and just never revisited. And this most recent was just OK. Don't think I'd watch it again, but it was entertaining enough. I didn't think the characters OR acting was on par with the 1st or 3rd.

Like most here I also think season 1 was one of the best shows on TV, ever. Season 2 was for shit. Nice rebound in season 3. This season lost its way in those middle episodes but finished nicely.

I think what separated this show from others is the quality of the acting. There was some miscasts in this show. Could have been better with better actors.

I think the ending would have been more believable if they stopped at "a ghost did it."

Don't know how. Ghosts arent real.

They somehow aged Clarice into Barney Fife and packaged it as HBO

Total miss for me

But seriously, speaking in terms of a fictional world, ghosts being real is less of a leap than the series of preposterous events the show is asking us to accept.

Yeah I watched all of it and to be honest, it kinda sucked. C- at best.

GF and I were bored by it until the last episode, but were still intrigued and driven by the promise season 1 is still delivering on.

I think the next season I'll wait for someone I trust to tell me whether or not it's worth my time.

Yeah this is the way to go. All of you watching this car wreck pumped the numbers so high that a fifth season was greenlit with the same show runners.

What was the deal with the blind polar bear and boomerang oranges?

I think a lot of the disconnect about this season is about the "not real" things the characters are observing. Part of the story is the perpetual night above the arctic circle - and how people's minds start playing tricks on themselves. Loosening their grip on reality. We see some of those things with them - but that doesn't mean they are real.
