Somehow the contestant choices are becoming worse with each season

The number of narcissists and pathological liars keeps increasing with every season. So many fake and awful people, it's crazy.

I hated 90% of the contestants from episode 1... just from their introduction. That one bowl cut dude with the insane confidence thinking he's the bomb but actually being completely socially inept... Or that one girl saying she's better in every single aspect than her sister's friend (or is it her friend's sister? Idk). Imagine saying that about someone you know in person. This is the same fake manipulator who pulls in her chin in front of the guys but then gives glares to the girls all the time...

Other things like "I'm the prettiest and I know it, so many guys fall for me, it's a bit burdensome some times". JESUS CHRIST. Like being confident is one thing, being delusional and arrogant is completely different and these people clearly don't know the difference.

This one girl legit told one guy she's annoyed at him because they hit it off really well since the very beginning and she wished he would have hid it from the other guys so they can still be interested in her... WILD. Legit told this man to keep it secret they're into each other so she can explore other options... The audacity.

This one swimmer dude said he noticed how the bowl cut dude was hitting on the girl he's into and said he didn't appreciate it... my guy, is she yours? Is the other guy not allowed to express interest in her or talk to her? Is he supposed to respect some kind of bro code when you're literally there to compete with each other? What kind of asinine nonsense is this?

And then all girls got together in a room and basically talked a bunch of crap about a lot of the guys... clearly not providing any context to some of the jokes they had made... seriously pathetic.

It's crazy how much stuff attractive people can get away with, it's wild... Each next season, they somehow manage to gather even worse and worse contestants. Season 1, despite that fake barbie girl, is still the best one cause at least it had a few more decent contestants. Here, there's no substance whatsoever.

Overall good, but the writing can be a bit lazy

I like that the show didn't hold back on the darkness of the stories. It's very easy to censor some of that dark stuff and most shows would have done that.

But... I feel like the writers really wanted to resolve every case within 1 episode and got a little lazy sometimes.
For example, one of the primary villains of the show agrees voluntarily to undergo scanning of the way he walks. Which ultimately led to him being sent to prison because they could now identify him based on his walk. This is realistic, that technology does exist. And your walk is like a fingerprint - unique. But... he didn't have to agree to this. So it felt like a very cheap way to get one of the primary villains. "Hey would you kindly do for us this thing that will lead you to being imprisoned". It's easy to chalk it down to him starting to lose his sanity or being an idiot. But that's lazy. It just felt unnatural, forced and unsatisfying. They didn't use anything creative to catch him. They literally politely asked him to help them get the evidence they need to put him in prison.

Don't even get me started on the main girl that the protagonist has been looking for for 7 years conveniently appearing at the hospital because she happened to attempt to kill herself with that precise timing. And of course, all of our protagonists were at the hospital at the same time. Ain't that convenient?

There are more hints of lazy writing. For example, the assemblyman suddenly dying. Really? I was wondering how they would resolve the assemblyman and the protagonist's father situation given that there was only 1 episode left and what do you know... he just dies randomly out of nowhere, conveniently to allow the writers to wrap up easier... come on man.

I enjoyed it. But some of the glaring faults were a bit distracting. Still a decent show but I feel like it's grade here is a bit exaggerated.
