    Yeah, I'm watching it now live. It's a mix match of nothing and a continuation of the boring My Struggle storyline. Not impressed. Both the last seasons should've stuck to Monster of the Week episodes. It's what everybody wants anyways.

    The Mythology is tired and since it ended (season 6) and ended again (season 9) the last two seasons felt like supplemental material tacked on. They had no real weight. I love this show to pieces but CSM being in both seasons I couldn't even suspend belief enough if I tried. So I just basically just flat out ignored he even died in season 9.

    These seasons are also too short to tell a cohesive mythology storyline. Either dedicate every episode to it or don't do it at all. I'd take the latter.

    Spoiler: Skinner just killed Reyes. Her character was quite good in seasons 8 and 9 and I hate how they handled her in these. Weird and lame death.

    Spoiler: Didn't mind the ending but the lead up was muddled.
