I understand its importance in the overarching narrative, I just felt it was way too pretentious and full of itself for its own good. I get the same feeling I did during season 3 of "Hannibal". It just got too artsy fartsy. Like, "look at all the cool stuff I'm doing", but not being engaging.

Season 3 makes me feel like Season 1 made me feel. It's a must watch show for me again.
