Hello Greg.
I'm reading what you've been answering and when you say the majority of the fans are happy with how you've been handling the show (Young Justice) for the past two seasons (and that's why you're not making any major changes in writing) I find it quite hard to believe, being honest. Not because I believe you do not get praise for the show, but because when I look for people's opinion on the last two seasons and if they want the show to be renewed for a fifth I mostly find fans complaining, disheartened and disappointed. Just now I read someone on tumblr saying that after 2 seasons they've come to terms with the thought that it would have been better if the show didn't come back.
And I don't want to agree with that statement but right now I can't not agree completely either...
The pandemic must have made things difficult for all of you, but I think the time it took the show to come back from Invasion to Outsiders was a problem. The writing and storytelling hasn't been as great. Seasons 1 and 2 are excellent, Outsiders imo was bad for the most part. You keep incorporating new characters when there's still plenty between the original and season 2 characters. The storyline/plot of season 3 was all over the place according to most people I've encountered and I can't say it was too compelling. And I know my vague comments might mean nothing to you, I just feel bad for all the pessimism I see. Which is getting to me.
Season 1 was excellent in terms of character arcs, plot in general, twists and turns, surprises, revelations, climax, cliffhanger, everything. Season 2 was different but it was still really good. Seasons 3 in comparison was disappointing. And while season 4 is slightly better than 3, I might see why people are not happy with how the show is going on.
I know this is a silly question to ask, but why hasn't the writing been as good as season 1 lately?
My impression is that if people want more episodes, it isn't because they want more of what you're doing now. If people want more episodes and still hope there's a season 5, they want the show to go back to it's glory days when the plot was focused and the characters (the OG Team, mainly Dick, Kaldur, Artemis, M'gaan and Conner) were united. Fans keep giving you opportunity and chances but from what I see they are disappointed because what you are doing isn't enough.
Some might be fully content, that's why you keep going like you do. But the others (fans who have been with the show since season 1) are left hoping and waiting.
I don't know what I'm doing writing this.... I guess I'm just sad and I feel you should hear not just the good but the bad as well.
I guess it's all useless since you are happy with what you're doing. And that's what matters ultimately.
The show has become frustrating I guess.
