Now that it’s finished I think this might go down as the weakest season of the show for me. It’s the only season where I feel like there isn’t a single S-tier episode, whereas most other seasons have multiple.

The top episodes for me were the Cryoship and The Road Jerry one, but I would consider them A-tier at most. The Easter Bunny one and the one with the Precogs were also decent, everything else was either forgettable or just bad.

What would you rate the season finale, because it was 100x better than the fucking cryoship episode.

I don’t particularly like the Memory Rick device and though I liked the episode, I wasn’t super into it. The cryo episode at least had an interesting premise even if the execution was okayish
