You is an interesting phenomenon because IMO it has been getting objectively worse each season, but somehow I can't stop watching it. Like, first season I gave into the buzz and was absolutely hooked, binged it in a day. Each subsequent season I've enjoyed less but still get through it within a day or two of its release. This last season I mostly just had it on in the background while doing other things. It's like a porno—you could probably watch just a few minutes from each episode and still understand the overarching story.

Love and her bro carried those two seasons. Now that's she's gone, I didn't bother watching it beyond the first few minutes of the episode.

A lot of shows get worse as they go but season 4 is a huge drop off (so far).

Agreed, I felt a dip in quality each season, but the 4th is quite the drop. AND that’s before you get to the finale, which I feel is another huge drop in quality and probably jumps the shark like 3 distinct times, it’s wild lmao

It gets better in the second half. Hits a high point around episode 7. Not everything is as it seems. Have you noticed this is the first season missing his iconic glass jail?
