I am so devastated. This was one of my favourite shows ... I'd even say it was my all time favourite. We're now on episode four of season four and I'm afraid to say it's beaten me to a pulp with a rather large and knobbly stick of boredom. The first episode of season four is completely unnecessary and dare I say dull beyond belief. Sometimes things do not need to be explained. Let the viewer figure out what's going on please ... the first three seasons offered so much intrigue and excitement. Have the writers decided that the show should now appeal to pre schoolers? I keep waiting for a subtitle saying "she's pulling out a gun now (that's a weapon containing bullets that can be used to end the life of a living creature,human or animal (see your local library for more details) I'm so sad. The acting was incredible and still is but the storyline is hodgepodge and desperate at best. I hate giving up but my life is precious and there's some terribly interesting wet paint that needs watching.
