Unfortunately, with the change over to Uzo Aduba replacing Gabriel Byrne in season 4, the show became about Uzo Aduba, her distracting weight (painfully tight clothing making you wonder how she could breath) and improbable affair with Joel Kinnaman. Season 4 felt awkward with no one looking comfortable, particularly Ms Aduba. Her patients were secondary. Season 4 was no longer the show we grew to intimately love for the prior 3 seasons. If you love Uzo Aduba, you'll love season 4. If not, stick with seasons 1-3.
Gabriel Byrne was the perfect 'father figure' for a therapy session but Uzo Aduba, literally, switched from councilor chair to patients - making the show more about her - and far less inviting.
