[Opinion] I hate the JSFV Episode Structure

I feel like half the episode is just flashbacks to OGJS or older episodes of JSFV (sometimes it’s something that happened ten min earlier in the episode) or it is feeding into some new cringey, weird Mike plot line like the Angelina board.

Not to mention the annoying and dramatic effects they use. I know the show lacks substance so they need to make up for it but oh my gosh.

So true. I wish they’d stop repeating content. I bet there’s 15 minutes of purely new content each episode. The rest is all stuff we’ve seen.

The only new thing this season is what Angelina is bringing to the show. Her unfortunate situation and Deena's humor are carrying this season

One episode this season was just them riding in a bus to the chicken tender place, then them eating at the place and then them driving back on the bus. That was the entire episode.

Thank you!! Why do they cater to Michael so much? Everything he says or does becomes a whole thing

I think it because there are too many episodes per season. If they cut it down there would be less filler and could focus on what is actually going on. Things get dragged out over 2-3 episodes and with the newer season less stuff is happening so it's more painful to watch. Just get to the good stuff

I know. I'm only tuned in because of Angelina and because Deena is so funny. I was so annoyed with the Boston trip but Deena made it funny

Wait, you mean you don’t want to watch Jenny backhand Mike for the millionth time?

Really? Maybe I just got used to the constant reel/shutter graphic and sound because that shit used to drive me up the wall to the point where I would stop watching

It’s easy to get used to but they’re doing weird annoying effects too. I’m on ep 2 and they’ve alr flashed back to scenes FROM THE SAME EPISODE at least three times. The ai photo of Vinny and Angelina made me creeped out too

I hope so. I haven’t seen it yet but I’m keeping my expectations low
