It's not top tier, but it's better than I was expecting, so that's good.
Yeah, I was a bit worried it'll suck since it's been a decade since the last season, but so far it's been pretty good
I think it's on an upswing, but oof, those first couple episodes. They had me worried for a moment.
Lolol no. It's absolutely gotten rid of anything remotely resembling anything clever and replaced it with poorly written, ham fisted, reductionist "burns" against conservative culture.
And please don't take this as me defending those idiots. I couldn't care less about the traitor tears. I just don't care for shitty zingers, with characters that have been around so long they are used as crutches for shitty writers.

Really?? It's good?? The screenshot is a good joke but I got to the 3rd episode and was like yup I gave this a chance and it's gotten worse every episode. I'm not a die hard fan, I watched it when I could when I had cable/it was on cable. Never caught reboot episodes.
All that and I guess what I'm saying is, if this (season* eta) is pretty good how bad did they hurt you?!??!
The third episode was pretty bad, but the 4th came back a bit.
Thank you! I keep slowly getting down voted lol but I was genuinely wondering!! So thank you for your reply. I thought maybe other reboots were so bad that the first 3 episodes were an improvement in comparison. Like I said I only had the original
I will give it a few more episodes after your advice, at least for background. I do wanna support them! Goodness I know I've stuck through shitty seasons and episodes of my favorite shows lol
Actually now that I think about it, it was the 4th episode I thought sucked and the 5th that I thought started to bring it back a bit.
