This was definitely the best season. I always got bored in the middle of the first two years, and even though there was a bit of a stumble after the failed hit on Gyp I was still eager to watch each week. Honestly I think Boardwalk Empire upstaged Homeland during the fall season and I really wasnt expecting that at…

I think the criticisms of Season 6 are perfectly valid but fall apart when you consider the highs. While some disagree, I don't think any of the puffed out story arcs did any damage to the rest of the season so it never really bothered me.

While its not extremely bad, the pretzel episode from Season 8 is the shark jumping moment. It's when the show started to cover repetitive emotional beats with stupid and uninspired scenarios (pretzels, manatees) and this is what characterizes dull Simpsons today.

That's definitely true and the show has definitely been making a point of showing his damaged personal life this season I choose to not put a lot of stock into it because it's a worn out and almost unavoidable trope in any gangster story and it's been done in more interesting ways.
