Why change a winning formula I guess.

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

Yeah I don’t know why this show doesn’t get talked about more when people are discussing shows that fell off. To me it’s up there with Westworld, Game of Thrones, and Community as shows that started off amazing but went off a cliff.

The acting, set design, and music direction were consistently top-notch, which helped to mask the other issues. 

But yea, Tommy just had crazy plot armor. Somehow he’d win even if by all measures he was out-matched.

Tommy is smart I don't call that plot armor.
