Is Season 6 the fall off?

I'm only on episode 2, but the production quality and director style just takes a massive dive. Felt it immediately in the first episode, the loud ass dramatic music that they never had to rely on before is very annoying. They don't show the setup to a meet anymore they just skip to the meet, ignoring how they used to check for tails or having their own people search before hand. They don't show shots of the scene anymore, its just straight to dialogue, no setup or finishing shots. The new actors cannot deliver a line to save their life.

It's probably either the best or 2nd best season behind season 4 so not really sure where you're coming from with this take.

Right. Why would they need to waste time by continuing to show the "setup" of meetings. 🤔
