FINALLY.
After an intriguing S2E1, I was hesitant about the myriad of storyline additions they were introducing out of fear they would take focus away from what made this show so good in season one - our three main characters on screen together. S2E2 proved these fears correct and we got the worst episode of the series yet. Bad writing, terrible acting from the newcomers & messy, half-baked plot lines I just don't care about. S2E3 was a step in the right direction, but still wasn't scratching the itch I had after season one ended...
In comes S2E4 to save the day.
I mean wow, everything about this episode was head and shoulders above what we've gotten in this new installment so far. The writing was clever and genuinely funny, the editing was perfectly timed, the acting was obviously fantastic and never once took me out of it & that reveal of Lucy's intro video actually taking place where it did was the cherry on top to seal it up as one of the strongest showings we've gotten yet. It's genuinely mind boggling how much the writing quality has fluctuated this season - 2 & 3 were filled with corny cliche lines, characters saying witty quips to no one but the camera & genuinely bad acting from every new character outside of Lucy.
Less is more with this show and hopefully they realize that sooner than later. THIS is what makes the show great, and I pray the show's creative staff sees that too.
