Show still feels like the politics and gang plotlines just go in circles with zero status quo changes, while casually introducing new baddies they're actually willing to kill off.

But I still gotta tune in for the setting, the actors, and that action! I just wish we'd see more consequences. Teasing us with an Ah Sahm vs Li Yong rematch (ep1), come on.

Other thoughts:
- Buckley is an interesting character but all of his scenes are the worst parts of the show now - except for that one crowd montage, that was actually great.
- Trying to figure out if Ah Sahm's very open collar is just a new costuming decision to add some variation, or him intentionally showing off the vest/tanktop to invoke the mural, or by it being slashed open in that one fight and he just stuck with it.
- Absolutely cheering when the farmgirls stabbed the poo poo out of that guy (ep3). There better be hell to pay.

I saw a random comment that it was a scheduling conflict but can find no source, looks like she's just off the show. I don't miss the character at all to be honest, and that dark ending makes sense for the time to me. Even if it is REALLY nasty.
