I tried to give that show a chance but it was all too stupid. Like when they met their counterparts how did none of them figure it out? They all just fought like monkeys.

Honestly, the most recent season wasn’t that good. Allison’s character arc was awful. She just hurt everyone around her, going as far as raping her brother Luther and getting him killed, but it’s all set aside and forgiven because she’s “grieving.” The parts with 5 or Klaus were enjoyable, but the rest really wasn’t.

I liked number five and his storyline. If the show was mostly that I think it would have held up better. And anytime David Cross gets money is good for me.

I mean the show is basically Five and his minions. I think that’s why it works so well and has as many seasons as it does. Amazing actor.

Its really a shame they put out the last season the way they did. Covid really fucked it and the whole season just felt silly and pointless. It kinda seemed like the showrunners even knew it wasn't a good season lol. But yeah Five is what has kept me coming back to the show, and the last season he had literally the only good arc with maybe Claus with his alt-universe father

Yeah whenever I realized it was going to be another “Five fixes everything in one season” thing again I was kind of disappointed.

Your comment is going to get buried because of your flippant positioning but I felt this way, too. Really seemed, on paper, to be my kind of show, too.

I think that's why I'm a bit frustrated. It had some really good elements but some goofy things that just didn't make any sense as well. Curse my flippant positioning.

You basically need to get behind the basic premise that they are all damaged goods to incurable degrees, even the ones from the supposedly "have their shit together" universe.

If you don't get that that is the core premise of the entire show, it looks like a giant "idiot ball" assembly and lame and at best the spectacle and weirdness is still a draw.

Even if some of them try to work on their issues and seem like they are getting better, they will always (most like by each other) be drawn back into their pathology.
