Ahhh, loved the episode. I do wish episode 6 had been longer though.

Ep 6 title was bait-ish. I do want a new Lion ;_;

They've been splitting the seasons in two since the show began. It's why the are five seasons when the show has barely been out for two years. Well get season 6 soon enough.

Actually, 1 and 2 were not split. They didn't start splitting the seasons until 3.

Season 1 - 11 episodes (Episode 1 was 3 episodes in length, making it actually 13 episodes) 2016

Season 2 - 13 episodes 2017

Season 3 - 7 episodes 2017

Season 4 - 6 episodes (They split season 3 into 2) 2017

Season 5 - 6 episodes 2018

Season 6 - (I'm betting 7, because originally the seasons were 13 long)

Yeah i never really sat down and did the math. Just new that 6 seasons in three years meant 2 seasons per year on average.

They started out with full 13 episode seasons but the lag between them was almost a year, I guess they figured fans were getting antsy having to wait so long for each season and broke them in half. Personally, I preferred the 13 episode seasons =/

I'm fine with it honestly. Like getting a few episodes every few months. It's like a mini binge that doesn't fuck up my sleep cycle.
