It's just bad. You think it will predictably bad, like you can see how bad it's going to be, so it's not interesting. But then there is a curve ball, and they make it worse, in a different way. It has no depth or umph behind it. The entire season is so flat and pointless, building up and building up. And then crescendoing into a ball of predictable badness that in unpredictably worse than you thought it would be.

If your watching and thinking "I'm gunna power through to see if it gets better, it can't stay this bad, I gotta see how it ends", no you don't. It's unimaginative and there are scenes that "edgy" people would want to call "dark" that serve zero purpose other than to leave the viewer with more evidence these writers had zero clue what to do.
