    The first 3 seasons of this show were very good, but the 4th season is painfully bad. The plot line of Dory's kidnapping and brainwashing is uncomfortable and not very believable. Chip is not very convincing as a villain.

The plot line of Dory's kidnapping and brainwashing is uncomfortable and not very believable. Chip is not very convincing as a villain. What is really terrible about the season is Dory's 3 friends who endlessly revive the thankfully forgotten technique that allegedly intelligent people behaving as stupidly as possible and screaming at the top of their lungs is supposed to be funny. It's not, but that's about all they do for the entire season.

    This is Search Party’s most-morbid season to be certain. It’s recommendable to die-hard enthusiasts of the show’s willy-nilly grotesqueries, but people looking for this fan fave’s true-crime comedy may feel like they’re searching for something missing themselves.

    Besides the first season spent looking for Chantal, Season 4 is Dory’s best arc yet. She’s still trying to find herself, and although it sounds counterintuitive, being trapped frees an untapped side of Dory.
