i trust this! now that the season has been out for a few weeks, i've been getting this vibe. though i will say i'm still not seeing the same level of excitement or engagement that we saw in the early seasons by far and it's just making me feel drained by the concept of watching the ending. like i just know the show is past its prime and i'm okay with preserving the memory of its height more than getting closure to the direction they went in. so i'll probably watch it at some point but it's not top of my list
