If you're wanting everyone to agree with how bad something is, that's another way people want this place to be like Reddit, I guess. 4000 comments, only one acceptable opinion.
I've heard rumblings of dissatisfaction with the show, but it's not a rabbit hole I'm keen to go down. Since there's not much else on at minute, it's tricky to distinguish genuine criticism from the opportunism of dunking on something popular for the algorithm boost.
It's clear from its title that it's as much its own show set in the TD universe as it a genuinely new season. It hints at some overlap - Rust's dad, the Tuttle foundation, places out of time and ancient evils - but it's equally invested in the legacy of Clarice Starling and it's own spooky weirdness.
Episode 3 hinted at development problems - the kind of plot intricacies that every show struggles with, and is dependent on how invested viewers are as to whether they forgive them or not. But nothing so far that suggests it warrants a pile-on of negativity.
