      I like how they’ve messed around with the releases so much that they’ve gone from seasons/chapters/parts/volumes. It’s amazing how they can’t seem to just finish this show.

      I could have sworn they said season 4 was going to be the end at some point.

      But then people will binge it in one go and realise there’s nothing else worth watching and unsubscribe again. Think of the shareholders!

    Love the show. But I feel like watching some 20 year old adults play kids in the 10th grade (assuming since season 4 is 9th grade) is just tough to swallow. Like you have to forget that these are high schoolers and just enjoy it for what it is. The charm of them being kids isn’t really working. Which to me was a huge pull to the original story…that started 9 years ago.

      People will disagree but for me no other seasons have reached the heights of the first one. The others are fun to watch but the mystery of season 1 is great and this feeling never returns to the show.

      I’ve enjoyed them all. To be fair though, I grew up in the '80s so I’m sure the series hits me differently than it does those who grew up in the '90s and '00s.

      Season 2 is a bit of a “sophomore slump”, IMO.

      Seasons 3 & 4 are much better comparatively, though probably not as good as S1 - S4 definitely comes close, and does a great job of raising the stakes ahead of the S5 conclusion.

      Season 3 sucks but the others are worth watching, you basically get recapped enough at the start of S4 to skip 3.
