Just started Season 3
So Seasons 1 and 2 were pretty kick ass. Big storyline change with Season 3; I was just wondering does the quality level hold up in Seasons 3-5? One major bummer is they keep killing off the hottest female characters. Unfortunate.

The way I see it OP you won't ever feel the same intensity or admire the other seasons as much as the first 2, that said the last 3 seasons are still fine and I felt were worth it overall. But honestly I still wish they'd have dragged out the first 2 seasons a little longer than they did because it was so unique and engrossing.
I think its a shame that they felt the need to keep it high stakes and action packed so much in the sense that there was always a reason for them to re-engage the big bad so soon and major wins/losses at risk.
Its the only thing I'm sad about regarding the show, the lack of tension use, they rarely had an episode of silence and uncertainty or actual side missions without a sudden big battle moment again. The first 2 seasons could've been as great as they are while including more personal scenes of conflict of natures or character development. The biggest moment we get is in the drug trials with the person who says no one will miss her.
