I really liked it, I fell off in the last season after it really jumped the shark though. Also Rahul Kohli is hot as fuck
Yeah, it kinda keeps trying to have this huge cliffhanger "oh shit everything has changed" moment at the end of each season and it barely holds on each time. Tough to do well, tougher to keep doing well.
I think it's a surprisingly good show for being on the CW, and the budget they had.
It’s the exact same problem The 100 had. Every season finale felt like they had to be a huge “everything will be different” moment and it becomes a wilder and wilder leap each time
This is basically the MO of all long-running shows on The CW, I've heard that it's basically mandatory. Idk if it's that the network execs demand some sort of change to the story to justify a new season being made, or if it's a dumb marketing strategy to build hype, or what.
The CW is basically a nightmare land that can only churn out low-tier slop that can't even sustain a fanbase to the point of souring people off of longstanding beloved franchises by milking them to death, but every so often they accidentally make something watchable.
