EPISODE REVIEWS

the arc's central antagonist continues to undermine tension through sheer incompetence. a narrative threat only works when the audience believes it is genuinely threatening. at this point the dramatic stakes feel artificially maintained rather than earned.

if only the antagonist at the center of this arc was smarter it would be so much more fun to watch unfold. right now it just feels like watching someone make obvious mistakes in slow motion and it is kind of painful honestly

i am so tired of this guy making stupid mistakes that any slightly smarter person would never make. if someone with actual intelligence was at the center of this arc it would be SO MUCH BETTER but instead we are stuck watching this go down slowly.
