The biggest letdown for me so far. Unlike the previous seasons, there was a lack of continuity with the earlier storyline, making the time jump too jarring. Where previous seasons meticulously addressed the fates of even minor characters, now we see significant figures like Rothstein disappear with barely a mention. On top of that, I found myself pretty bored.
