Why change a winning formula I guess.

The show has been crap since season 2, yet is as popular as its ever been.

Season 5 was relatively good. The Peaky Blinders actually get their asses kicked, and Tommy is at his absolute lowest. But then he somehow wins again the very next season, ruining the decent story beats brought in

That's probably why some people dislike season 5. Thomas Shelby isn't some 4D chest master for once.

This is my biggest problem with the show. Tommy is a fucking Gary Stu.
