You'll have the same problem with season 1 then. Ultimately it's about the journey and learning what happened in those periods as it goes on.

Just think; that's about half way through the series. Woof.

After a quick scroll on IMDB i'll give you Bloody Mary, Hook Man, Bugs and Route 666 but I think the rest are watchable to great, even something like The Benders sets up the trope of human enemies always being gross bastards. 18 outta 22 ain't bad.

Probably not a welcome one to his first wife.

Same, thought it was an alright bit of schlock since I already like the genre but couldn't get into season 2.

> each season had a handful of standalone amazing episodes

I agree with this but I strongly disagree the seasons were still a "net positive": if out of a 22 episode season you're getting 3-5 actually watchably good ones then it's a bad season overall and on a large decline. Watching week to week was painful so I started waiting until the whole season was out because bad episodes become forgettable when you're binging, not having a week to think about it.

At a point I had to just drop the show because it wasn't worth the time investment anymore, even now that it's ended I've so fallen out of love with it I don't care to go back and catch up to watch the finale. Sad because I really enjoyed the early seasons.
