I mean season 1 had its issues, but I think the problem is that as the show went on, the same mistakes were made.

I won't disagree. I think part was that Once was experimenting in 2 and 3, then Frozen popped into existence, which definitely had some impact on whatever plan they had, etc, etc. Then, there's the rotation of the writers and some ideas that should have been axed or altered that didn't.

A lot of issues, yeah, but my main point was more like "the potential was there and didn't really leave", otherwise I think we wouldn't get some stand-out episodes. (Lol, I'd be a bad showrunner, but I think they should have found a way to get better creative involvement from the writers that weren't so echo-chambery and had writers focus on things they do well.)

Ex for the parenthetical statement....in some of my weird "grade summaries" I highlighted what which writer or writer pair did well. Adjust some creative involvement and it probably would have been a grade level higher (or whatever people rate things).
