I guess I'll try to explain my views a bit. I mostly ignore the BS the hardcore fans moan about.

I think it's mostly the fact that some things feel a bit rushed ever since the last season.

Like characters suddenly being on the other side of the world in the same episode and these "miracle saves" that weren't a thing in the past seasons.

If a character was overwhelmed, they most likely died. I think episode 3 of the current season is a fine example, even though I still liked it.

Still a certain character who is a bit of a comical relief and IMO, has grown a lot, was turned into a fucking embarassing joke...

As for the coffee mug outrage, people seriously need to get other hobbies.
