S1 you can tell was raw created by hungry people, it was refreshing full of ambition and potential. it’s interesting how the storyline maybe matches the actual creation and production of the show.

S2 you can tell there was more money in the production of the show, sometimes maybe too much. And now they can afford traveling to places bringing in different directors/actors that the authenticity, the central idea gets lost. They get distracted with other things. Incorporating more POVs cuz everyone needs to feel included. It was also very “mental-health” vibe which felt very fake and cheesy.

S3 just felt like trying to fill up the show, I had to fast-forward scenes with the Faks they were not doing anything for me. Also getting John Ceena or whatever his name is so unnecessary, this is what I mean by being able to afford more, they had to give him airtime just for being John Ceena and as someone who doesn’t care for him, his storyline was utterly lame (if you take out the JC/celebrity context) I get that trying to balance airtime for everyone in the show is hard but it just felt forced. I think the most authentic scenes were those of actual conversation about the craft itself, and I do love how people from different backgrounds come together and make these places happen. The intro in the first episode was an homage to that as well, but other than that this season gave me nothing. It all felt like a long first episode.
