I think the main thing that may turn some people off about the new season is the shift in tone, and maybe that having character development can be an issue if it's for a tricky character like Soos for example.

(P.S. Real Girl sucked) No, that's not why I thin it's worse at all. I like the | Darker and Edgier tone, actually. What I mean in that it's less realistic. I used to be amazed at how realistically the characters acted. Now they just act like most TV show characters. Let me give an example:

In Episode 4, when Mabel is out on the porch feeling bad, Wendy sees her chewing her hair and asks her "How's that hair tasting, buddy?" This isn't really a joke, and doesn't directly contribute to the story. It's just what a person like Wendy would say in real life. In any other show, Wendy would have just said "What's wrong?" The later episodes (and by that I mean anything after "Summerween") are more likely to only include things that are either jokes or directly moving the story along.
