I agree! Season 4's Frozen was the JTS moment. To me, season 2 simply ended on a sour note, but that was just bad writing. Season three, even with Neal's random death and such, was just destroying the narrative. Season 4 was JTS with Frozen. I saw Frozen as A&E's way to breathe new life into the series, but it backfired

The Frozen arc was decent overall with wonderful acting and good CGI, but the whole "We won't change the Frozen characters or story" idea was just sad. It's pretty much setting up false hope for several viewers, which was shown by the surge and deflation of the ratings. I mean they even trivially wouldn't change Elsa's attire to normal clothing. Not really a problem, but it showcased the issue with the Frozen arc.

The 4b arc was really a downfall. I would say 3b was the downfall of the narrative...or better yet, Once 1-3a is like a Disney movie, then 3b and rest is like a Disney sequel, which is usually worst than the original.

4b wasn't all that successful, but the upcoming Darkness arc could revitalize the show after all this damage. I doubt it, since it seems they are trying to mix an idea of 3a and 4a. We'll see how that works.
