Awesome show, but the first few seasons are really lightyears better than the rest. There's still good stuff throughout and the finale is great, but there's soooo many really dumb storylines.

I'd argue that you could put a pin in the show's timeline as to when it goes from absolutely great to trending down to good/average/weird, and that's about the episode when >!Adebisi dies!<.

1000% agree, the few times I’ve rewatched it I just stop there.

Yeah, season 4 really goes downhill with a bunch of stupid storylines. >!Rebadow going from harmless old man to crazed bloodthirsty murderer and back to harmless old man within a handful of episodes!<, >!Clayton Hughes' descent into whiny madness!<, >!Nikolai getting drowned by Officer Howell with zero consequences!<, >!Beecher's "whoops, it was all a dream" fake out release!< and of course the infamous >!aging pill storyline!<. All in season four.

Agreed, I made it to S4 both times I tried watching and never finished.

What season should I stop at?

The finale of Season 4 has an event that massively affects the show, and things seem to change from there. It's not an immediate plummet in quality, but it does definitely start to shift there.
