Season 6 and 7

Season 6: Meta, gimmicky found footage plot that turns out to be completely aimless and boring.

Season 7: Meta political nonsense thrown in a plot blender with a bunch of random references to the most prolific cult leaders in history. Turns out to be completely aimless and boring.

I have to say, despite numerous problems, I thought the first 5 seasons were solid. I was especially taken by the Liz Taylor story-line in Season 5. Who thought a scene where a bunch of ghosts murdering a terminally ill man could be so poignant and moving. But I am baffled as to how its gone so far off the rails. I think the most succinct way to put it is, aimless, pointless boring dumpster fire. I feel like there are no more wow moments, no really great stand alone episodes and more importantly no risks taken.

I think this season could have benefited from having a huge twist thrown in like Oz turning out to be the Antichrist baby from season 1 and ultimately becoming the cult leader but it seems like they've decided to restrain themselves from using any supernatural elements this season. I hope it gets better in season 8
