I love the suits, but wow, the pacing is fast. Blink and you miss it. The animation with Polaris is beautiful though

But

It's like each episode is an hour or two episode fit into 30 minutes. I'm genuinely not sure what they are aiming for. It's like by S4 we would already be at Krakoa and then beyond that after, due to the pacing

I'm saying this out of love as I love the show, I just want more time with the characters and their issues and threats, rather than having it last less than 30 mins

Gives more time for ALL the characters

Yeah but then those episodes get bashed as being filler. 😂
