The ChatGPT writing and lack of character development/storytelling turned me off. But I can go into detail about why I stopped watching regularly.
Leslie is a cartoon. It's as if the writers mistook her popularity as a reason to eat the show, and somehow, $1 million makes her the richest woman in the world. She's not entertaining but exhausting. By extension, Ted is pointless. He's very surface and not at all a leading man. In fact, most of the men on the show have no gravitas. I'm all for the women characters having solid POVs, but the men just come across as just there.
Bill is the exception. The actor elevates the material and just brings it. Karla Mosley is also really great as Dani (who can be a lot). Dani/Andre do have amazing chemistry. I can't deny that.
The Martin story was a bust.
There's no young couple or underdog to root for. I thought Eva would be that flawed spitfire (AM is a find), but she's a one-note character. It's a choice that Eva gets to be so destructive, but Kat is the villain because she doesn't want to embrace her. Not to mention they're fighting over wooden Tomas while Ted has just accepted Eva.
Naomi is just horrid. I don't really think that her, Chelsea, Jacob, and the teens needed to be in Season 1.
I was curious about Winterfest, and nothing happened. Greg Vaughn's intro did nothing for me. There could've been a meet/cute with Nicole.
I just expected more from BTG. I do hope that it can pull a season 2 "Different World" and turn things around. All the elements are there. But right now, the show doesn't do it for me.
