Criminal Justice: A Family Matter

I'm watching criminal since the start but this season was truly amazing and one of the best season which criminal justice has showcased us.

The story was eventually a mystery until it's last episode despite being the series the creators made it look so easy and deliberate that it just amaze you're mind but looking at each episode and waiting for the next one.

This was the season where I was desperately waiting every Thursday for the new episode to release and have a look at it. This brings back to me in my childhood days where we supposed to wait for one week and then new episode comes out but it was a great experience although to wait and watch the whole season.

The only reason to watch criminal justice was to see Pankaj Tripathi but the last episode is the real episode which gives you the example how you can be the best without being on the different sides absolutely banger.

As a long-time fan of Criminal Justice, I was genuinely looking forward to this new season, especially after how well the previous ones handled complex legal dramas and human emotions. The earlier seasons had a gripping narrative, and one of the most endearing aspects was Madhav Mishra's relationship with his wife. Their dynamic brought a touch of warmth and realism that balanced the intensity of the cases. It felt natural, relatable, and added emotional depth to the story.

Unfortunately, this new season completely loses that charm.

Rather than maintaining the organic chemistry between Madhav and his wife, the writers have now made her a part of the investigation team which is hard to digest !. Her involvement in the legal proceedings feels forced, and the dialogues between them lack the natural flow they once had. What used to be light-hearted banter and emotional support has now turned into awkward, overly scripted conversations that just don't land.

The magic is missing.

This season also struggles with pacing and engagement. The plot feels stretched, and the storytelling doesn't pack the same punch. There's a noticeable dip in both tension and entertainment value. Scenes that should be thrilling or thought-provoking end up feeling like filler.

And then there's the release strategy by Hotstar-honestly, it's ridiculous. Releasing one episode per week for a show that doesn't build weekly anticipation just ruins the viewing experience. It breaks the momentum and makes it hard to stay invested. This might work for some high-budget global series, but for a legal drama that thrives on tight storytelling and continuity, it just doesn't work.

In short, this season feels like a missed opportunity. What once was a strong and engaging legal drama now feels like it's trying too hard in all the wrong places. I hope future seasons bring back the grounded storytelling and character depth that made Criminal Justice so compelling in the first place.

I initially gave a 6-star rating (out of 10) purely because of how much I enjoyed the show and its overall quality. However, I'm genuinely disappointed with the way the full episodes are being delayed. When the Season 4 trailer dropped, I was incredibly excited. But that excitement has slowly turned into frustration due to the drawn-out release schedule.

Delaying full episodes and not releasing them all at once plays with viewer expectations and can seriously reduce the emotional impact and anticipation you've worked so hard to build. If this continues, it could hurt your ratings and viewership long-term-not because the show lacks quality, but because of these decisions around how it's being released.

The show itself is easily a 10/10, but unfortunately, these choices are making it hard to stay engaged. Please consider how this affects loyal viewers moving forward.

Climex totally caught me off guard. I didn't see that coming. Though it felt little slow, I really enjoyed it. Some subplots can be slightly predictable. The legal drama feels so real, and Pankaj Tripathi as Madhav Mishra is absolutely brilliant. He brings such a calm but sharp energy to every scene. What I liked most is that it wasn't predictable. Just when I thought I figured something out, the story took a different turn. The characters were interesting, and the pacing kept me engaged throughout. Overall, Climex was a solid watch. Not overhyped, just smart storytelling with the right amount of thrill.

Season 4 delivers exactly what fans expected in terms of performances and storytelling - Pankaj Tripathi and the entire cast are in top form, delivering powerful and nuanced performances that elevate the show. The narrative remains engaging and gripping throughout.

However, the inconsistency in episode release is both disappointing and frustrating. It disrupts the viewing experience and reflects poor planning on the scheduling front. A more structured release strategy would have greatly enhanced audience satisfaction.

In summary, while the content remains strong, the execution in the release strategy pulls the season.
