How is that episode a B+?

Disagree - there isn't too much objectivity in journalism but too little editorial authority. Journalists need to grow a pair and call BS out. Instead they remain superficial to maintain the illusion of balance, which they sell as objectivity.

Two and a half seasons in and still the reviews talk about the shapelessness of the show - so I somehow get the feeling that the show is still largely misunderstood. By now it should be clear that the show isn't telling the story about the big picture utilizing characters, but it was always down to the personal level…

imo it wasn't a simple relapse, but a suicide attempt. Holmes realized he is not in control and others have a say in his life, so he went into the tunnel to join Oscar's sister. Calling the shots one last time.
